The crystallization and activated annealing effect of Si films using an excimer laser and a new CW blue laser are described comparing with furnace annealing (SPC) for the application of advanced TFTs and future applications. Currently, pulsed ELA is used extensively as a LTPS process on glass substrates as the efficiency is high in UV region for thin Si film of 40- 60 nm thickness. ELA enables extremely low resistivity for both n- and p-typed Si films. On the other hand, CW BLDA enables the smooth Si surface having arbitral grains from micro-grains to anisotropic huge grain structure only controlling its power density.

The effect of the crystallization and activated annealing of Si films using an excimer laser and the new CW blue laser are described and compared with furnace annealing for application in advanced TFTs and for future applications. Pulsed excimer laser annealing (ELA) is currently being used extensively as a low-temperature poly-silicon (LTPS) process on glass substrates as its efficiency is high in the ultra-violet (UV) region for thin Si films with thickness of 40-60 nm. ELA enables extremely low resistivity relating to high crystallinity for both the n- and p-type Si films. On the other hand, CW blue laser diode annealing (BLDA) enables the smooth Si surface to have arbitral crystal grains from micro-grains to an anisotropic huge grain structure only by controlling its power density. Both annealing techniques are expected to be applied in the future advanced TFT systems.

We developed a new laser irradiation (BLDA: Blue Multi-Laser-Diode Annealing) system. The system forms the uniform line beam, which is constructed by 48 pieces of semiconductor lasers. This new system has achieved high laser output stability and the highly accurate beam shape by adopting a reliable laser control, the auto-focus control in addition to an original laser photosynthesis technology and the beam homogenizing technology. It was confirmed to crystallize the Si films effectively with good quality.

Since epileptic seizure is unpredictable and paroxysmal, an automatic system for seizure detecting could be of great significance and assistance to patients and medical staff. In this paper, a novel method is proposed for multichannel patient-specific seizure detection applying the earth mover's distance (EMD) in scalp EEG. Firstly, the wavelet decomposition is executed to the original EEGs with five scales, the scale 3, 4 and 5 are selected and transformed into histograms and afterwards the distances between histograms in pairs are computed applying the earth mover's distance as effective features. Then, the EMD features are sent to the classifier based on the Bayesian linear discriminant analysis (BLDA) for classification, and an efficient postprocessing procedure is applied to improve the detection system precision, finally. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, the CHB-MIT scalp EEG database with 958 h EEG recordings from 23 epileptic patients is used and a relatively satisfactory detection rate is achieved with the average sensitivity of 95.65% and false detection rate of 0.68/h. The good performance of this algorithm indicates the potential application for seizure monitoring in clinical practice.
