The PtSi layer and PtSi/Al, PtSi/AlCuSi, PtSi / TiW / AlCuSi, Ti /Ni / Ag, Al / Ti / Ni / Ag stacks were tested as the anode contact of high-power P-i-N diode. The forward voltage drop (VF), differential resistance (Rdiff) and crossing point current (IXing) of diodes were evaluated from the forward I-V curves at different temperatures measured in four point arrangement. The lowest magnitude of contact resistivity and poor thermal stability were obtained for the case of diode with PtSi contact. The additional layers have improved the temperature stability of this contact. It has led to the increase of contact resistance, but the PtSi layer is still possible to use as a source of Pt for further local lifetime control operation.

Two models for objective assessment of compressed video quality and results from subjective and objective tests of several low bit-rate video coders are introduced in this paper. First model is based on mathematical measures that describe perception of video distortion by human eye. Second model for quality evaluation is based on human visual system (HVS) characteristics. Obtained quality values from both models have been compared with subjective results. Both models are computationally efficient and produce results that are correlated with subjective results.

This paper introduces a new view onto the problems of astronomical image data compression. The idea is to find precise models of real objects from image and describe the image with the help ofthem. This approach should lead to extreme compression ratios but maintain accurate astronomical information and in most cases also visually lossless image quality. Lossless compression is possible at the expense of low compression ratios but these ratios should be still able to compete to recent compression algorithms used in astronomy (HCompress, PMT or FITPRESS). The core ofthis method is very precise astrometry and photometry measurement, the rest of the image, which will not fulfill the expectation of our model, can be coded using wavelet transform with optimized mother function.

The optical transfer function (OTF), as an objective measure of the quality of optical and electro-optical systems, is closely related to the point spread function (PSF) and other derived characteristics, such as the modulation transfer function (MTF) and the phase transfer function (PTF). The main objective of this paper has been to use a generalized OTF, which is primarily dedicated to the description of linear space invariant systems (LSI), for the purpose of sampled structures of image sensors (e.g. CCD, CMOS, CID) including smart ones, and to implement the derived results while utilizing the graphical user interface (GUI) in Matlab programming environment. The model used considers the effects of the detector photo sensitive area, sampling process, as well as other CCD specific parameters, such as the charge transfer efficiency (CTE) or diffusion in order to derive the overall MTF shape. The paper also includes an experimental measurement in the real system and a comparison with the results of modeling.

Smart Imagers' Application for Testing and Measuring Systems
Information and telecommunication technologies (ITT) are already tool economic development of society and their role will grow. The first task is providing of information security of ITT that is necessary for it distribution in "information" society. The state policy of the leading world countries (USA, France, Japan, Great Britain and China) is focused on investment huge funds in innovative technologies development. Within the next 4-6 years the main fiber-optic transfer lines will have data transfer speed 40 Gbit/s, number of packed channels 60-200 that will provide effective data transfer speed 2,4-8 Tbit/s. Photonic-crystalline fibers will be promising base of new generation fiber-optic transfer lines. The market of information imaging devices and digital photo cameras will be grown in 3-5 times. Powerful lasers based on CO2 and Nd:YAG will be actively used in transport machinery construction when producing aluminum constructions of light rolling-stock.
Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) will be base for energy saving and safety light sources used for vehicles and indoor lighting. For example, in the USA cost reducing for lighting will be 200 billion dollars. Implementation analysis of optic electronic photonic technologies (OPT) in ground and aerospace systems shows that they provide significant increasing of traffic safety, crew and passengers comfort with help of smart vehicles construction and non-contact dynamic monitoring both transport facilities (for example, wheel flanges) and condition of rail track (road surface), equipping vehicles with night vision equipment. Scientific-technical programs of JSC "RZD" propose application of OPT in new generation systems: axle-box units for coaches and freight cars monitoring when they are moved, track condition analysis, mechanical stress and permanent way irregularity detection, monitoring geometric parameters of aerial contact wire, car truck, rail and wheel pair roll surface, light signals automatic detection from locomotive, video monitoring, gyroscopes based on fiber optic.

The most important task in Moscow metro is increasing safety of railway traffic. For safety purposes six track parameters are measured in Moscow Metro with help of track measurement car. Equipment mounted on this car works only in contact mode and doesn't provide modem requirements for accuracy. Also important task is measurement at high speeds, but contact technology limits speed of movement up to 25mph on rail switches. Current system can't measure in real-time mode.
For decision of these field of tasks non-contact photonic measurement system (KSIR) is constructed. The KSIR works at speeds up to 70 mph and measure seven track parameters.
The KSIR contains four subsystems: rail wear, height and track gauge measurement (BFSM); rail slump measurement (FTP); contact rail measurement (FKR); speed, level and car locating (USI).
KSIR contains five CCD matrix cameras, four line CCD cameras, five infrared stripe lasers and four spot infrared lasers.
Laser forms shape on the rail. CCD-camera acquires rail image and transfers it into the digital signal processor which produces preliminary calculation ofrail shape. Then image is transferred into the central computer to calculate values of rail characteristics.
Angles between photonic unit and rail bring distortions in images from cameras. Additional distortions are caused by short-focus optics and small distance between camera and track. This distance is limited by structure clearance. The transformation algorithms for distortions elimination are applied. It's based on surfaces spline-approximation. As a result the KSIR calculates coefficients of approximating polynomials. The calibration is performed for checking accuracy of measurement in BFSM, FTP and FKR units. Evaluation techniques of accuracy characteristics are considered.

The most important feature of means of transportation including rolling-stock is the velocity. Non-contact velocity sensor development for rail measurement car on rail transportation has been developed. Specialized sensor organization is described. Mathematical model of specialized TDI PhCCD has been developed. Simulation software based on the model has been written to carry out the imitative simulation of OVS. Simulation ofthe velocity sensor with some various testing images has been performed. The motion velocity of rolling-stock and calculation accuracy dependencies have been described. Maximum calculation accuracy position at specified areas having good luminosity has been determined where the imager acquires most contrasting and clear images. Images like that may be acquired at open areas. The less luminous areas like at stations, near stations, and at tunnel will have worse accuracy. The calculation accuracy dependence from luminosity has been calculated.

The dependence of the digitization errors values in a television system of the low-sized objects detection against complex background under the restriction of the optical signal spectrum by a lens has been obtained. The error value depends upon the ratio of the blur circle to the pitch ofthe array image sensor decomposition elements. It is shown that to achieve the value of the root mean square of the digitization error about 1%, it is necessary that the blur circle diameter is 2.5 of the digitization interval value along each coordinate.
