Highly Efficient Orange and Warm White Phosphorescent OLEDs Based on a Host Material with a Carbazole–Fluorenyl Hybrid

A new carbazole–fluorenyl hybrid compound, 3,3′(2,7‐di(naphthaline‐2‐yl)‐9H‐fluorene‐9,9‐diyl)bis(9‐phenyl‐9H‐carbazole) (NFBC) was synthesized and characterized. The compound exhibits blue‐violet emission both in solution and in film, with peaks centered at 404 and 420 nm. In addition to the application as a blue emitter, NFBC is demonstrated to be a good host for phosphorescent dopants. By doping Ir(2‐phq)₃ in NFBC, a highly efficient orange organic light‐emitting diode (OLED) with a maximum efficiency of 32 cd A^?1 (26.5 Lm W^?1) was obtained. Unlike most phosphorescent OLEDs, the device prepared in our study shows little efficiency roll‐off at high brightness and maintains current efficiencies of 31.9 and 26.8 cd A^?1 at a luminance of 1000 and 10 000 cd m^?2, respectively. By using NFBC simultaneously as a blue fluorescence emitter and as a host for a phosphorescent dopant, a warm white OLED with a maximum efficiency of 22.9 Lm W^?1 (21.9 cd A^?1) was also obtained.     

Some Measurement-Based Characterizations of Separability of Bipartite States

Importance of quantum entanglement has been demonstrated in various applications. Usually, separability of a bipartite state is defined by its algebraic structure, i.e. a convex combination of product states. But it seems to be hard to check separability (equivalently, entanglement) of a state from its algebraic structure. In this note, we give some characterizations of separability of bipartite states based on POVM measurements. For bipartite pure states, we prove the separability, Bell locality, unsteerability and classical correlation are the same. As a consequence, every entangled pure bipartite state is always Bell nonlocal, steerable and quantum correlated.

     

Characterization of large‐sized Nd:YAG single crystals grown by horizontal directional solidification

Nd³⁺‐doped Y₃Al₅O₁₂ single crystals have been grown by the horizontal directional solidification (HDS) method in different thermal zone. The Grashof (G_r), Prandtl (P_r), Marangoni (M_a) and Rayleigh (R_a) numbers of melt in HDS system have been discussed for our experimental system to understand the mechanism of melt flow patterns and concentration gradient of dopant. The concentration gradient of Nd³⁺ ions was explained with melt flow processes during crystal growth in different thermal zone, and results indicated that high growth temperature will be helpful for uniformity of dopant in HDS‐grown single crystal. The main microscopic growth defects such as bubbles and irregular inclusions in HDS‐grown Nd:YAG crystals were observed, and the causes were discussed as well. (© 2012 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

First principles study of structural,phonon, optical,elastic and electronic properties of Y3Al5O12

Structural, phonon, optical, elastic and electronic properties of Y₃Al₅O₁₂ have been investigated by means of the first principles method with the Cambridge Serial Total Energy Package (CASTEP) code based on the density functional theory. The calculated lattice parameters, valence charge density, bond length and single crystal elastic properties at zero pressure are in good agreement with the available experimental data. The close agreement with the experimental values provides a good confirmation of the reliability of the calculations. Optical, elastic and phonon properties of Y₃Al₅O₁₂ under pressures are performed. The results that are obtained show the changes of optical and elastic properties under the influence of applied pressure, and proving the dynamical stability of YAG are destructed when applied pressure up to 7 GPa. Moreover, polycrystalline elastic moduli are deduced according to the Reuss assumption. Those elastic constants provide important parameters that describe reliability of both physical model and engineering application at the atomistic level. The result of the density of states explains the nature of the electronic band structure.     

An Improved Multiparty Quantum Secret Sharing with Bell States and Bell Measurement

Quantum Non-Markovianity via the Covariance Matrix

In this paper, we propose a new characterization of non-Markovian quantum evolution based on the covariance matrix. The fundamental properties of covariance matrices are elucidated. The measure captures quite directly the characteristics of non-Markovianity from the perspective of uncertainty. We consider several typical examples and compare the covariance matrix characterization of quantum non-Markovianity with Fisher-information matrix, divisibility and the Breuer-Laine-Piilo characterization of quantum non-Markovianity.
