A Direct Method For The Inversion Of Physical Systems, Lester Caudill, Herschel Rabitz, Attila Askar Jan 1994

A Direct Method For The Inversion Of Physical Systems, Lester Caudill, Herschel Rabitz, Attila Askar

Department of Math & Statistics Faculty Publications

A general algorithm for the direct inversion of data to yield unknown functions entering physical systems is presented. Of particular interest are linear and non-linear dynamical systems. The potential broad applicability of this method is examined in the context of a number of coefficient-recovery problems for partial differential equations. Stability issues are addressed and a stabilization approach, based on inverse asymptotic tracking, is proposed. Numerical examples for a simple illustration are presented, demonstrating the effectiveness of the algorithm.


Identifiability Of Semiconductor Defects From Lbic Images, Weifu Fang, Kazufumi Ito Dec 1992

Identifiability Of Semiconductor Defects From Lbic Images, Weifu Fang, Kazufumi Ito

Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications

The identifiability of defects in a semiconductor from its laser-beam-induced current (LBIC) image is studied. It is shown that the LBIC technique is reliable for detecting any spatial defects in the semiconductor material. Continuous dependence of the current measurements on the spatial defects is proved, and sensitivity is also discussed in certain cases.
