Snap-through instability of graphene on substrates

We determine the graphene morphology regulated by substrates with herringbone and checkerboard surface corrugations. As the graphene/substrate interfacial bonding energy and the substrate surface roughness vary, the graphene morphology snaps between two distinct states: 1) closely conforming to the substrate and 2) remaining nearly flat on the substrate. Such a snapthrough instability of graphene can potentially lead to desirable electronic properties to enable graphene-based devices.

Design and Analysis of Successive Decoding with Finite Levels for the Markov Channel

This paper proposes a practical successive decoding scheme with finite levels for the finite-state Markov channels where there is no a priori state information at the transmitter or the receiver. The design employs either a random interleaver or a deterministic interleaver with an irregular pattern and an optional iterative estimation and decoding procedure within each level. The interleaver design criteria may be the achievable rate or the extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) chart, depending on the receiver type. For random interleavers, the optimization problem is solved efficiently using a pilot-utility function, while for deterministic interleavers, a good construction is given using empirical rules. Simulation results demonstrate that the new successive decoding scheme combined with irregular low-density parity-check codes can approach the identically and uniformly distributed (i.u.d.) input capacity on the Markov-fading channel using only a few levels.

A Capacity Achieving and Low Complexity Multilevel Coding Scheme for ISI Channels

We propose a computationally efficient multilevel coding scheme to achieve the capacity of an ISI channel using layers of binary inputs. The transmitter employs multilevel coding with linear mapping. The receiver uses multistage decoding where each stage performs a separate linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) equalization and decoding. The optimality of the scheme is due to the fact that the LMMSE equalizer is information lossless in an ISI channel when signal to noise ratio is sufficiently low. The computational complexity is low and scales linearly with the length of the channel impulse response and the number of layers. The decoder at each layer sees an equivalent AWGN channel, which makes coding straightforward.
