Recombination zone shift in phosphorescent white organic light-emitting devices with single host structure of multi-emission layers

We have investigated the recombination zone in the phosphorescent white organic light-emitting devices with single host structure of multi-emission layers. Blue, green, and orange-red phosphorescent emitters were doped into the separate layers of single host material for fabricating the white devices with multi-emission layers. The electroluminescence spectrum was substantially modified by the shift of the recombination zone that was dependent upon the thickness of the electron transport layer. We investigated the recombination zone shift in terms of electric field distribution and carrier injection. A maximum external quantum efficiency of 15.9% and a maximum power efficiency of 28.9 lm/W were achieved by optimizing the recombination zone.

Particle captured by a field-modulating vortex through dielectrophoresis force

In microfluidic technology, dielectrophoresis (DEP) is commonly used to manipulate particles. In this work, the fluid-particle interactions in a microfluidic system are investigated numerically by a finite difference method (FDM) for electric field distribution and a lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) for the fluid flow. In this system, efficient particle manipulation may be realized by combining DEP and field-modulating vortex. The influence of the density ($\rho_{\rm p}$), radius ($r$), and initial position of the particle in the $y$ direction ($y_{\rm p0}$), and the slip velocity ($u_{0}$) on the particle manipulation are studied systematically. It is found that compared with the particle without action of DEP force, the particle subjected to a DEP force may be captured by the vortex over a wider range of parameters. In the $y$ direction, as $\rho_{\rm p}$ or $r $ increases, the particle can be captured more easily by the vortex since it is subjected to a stronger DEP force. When $u_{0}$ is low, particle is more likely to be captured due to the vortex-particle interaction. Furthermore, the flow field around the particle is analyzed to explore the underlying mechanism. The results obtained in the present study may provide theoretical support for engineering applications of field-controlled vortices to manipulate particles.     

三硼酸铋晶体及其高温熔体结构的拉曼光谱研究

6-Hydroxymethyltriazolyl-6-deoxy-β-cyclodextrin: a highly water soluble and structurally well-defined β-cyclodextrin click cluster

The structural, physical, and biological properties of heptakis{6-(4-hydroxymethyl-1H-[1,2,3]triazol-1-yl)-6-deoxy}-β-cyclodextrin (HTβCD) were investigated by a variety of methods, including NMR, UV/vis, circular dichroism spectroscopy, computer modeling, turbidity testing, K_a measurements, and the MTT assay. The experimental results suggest that HTβCD is structurally well-defined, highly water-soluble, and has low cytotoxicity. These advantages of HTβCD versus β-CD indicate that β-cyclodextrin click clusters may function both as host molecules and as potential, alternative excipients to β-CD.     

Photoinduced phase transition accompanied with the changes in magnetic properties

Recently, many studies have been started in search for materials which show a photoinduced phase transition (PIPT). In this work, we review two systems as typical examples of PIPT accompanied with changes in magnetic characteristics; (1) organo-metal complex [Fe(2-pic)₃]Cl₂ EtOH (2-pic = 2-amino-methyl-pyridine) and (2) III-V based magnetic semiconductors (In_1-x , Mn _x )As. In the former case, we show several nonlinear characteristics in dynamical process of photoinduced spin state transition from low-spin to high-spin states. In the latter one, photocarrier-induced ferromagnetic order has been observed by both magnetic and transport measurements.     

On efficient stopping times

This paper is devoted to efficient sequential estimation in stochastic processes whose corresponding sufficient statistics are processes with stationary independent increments. It is proved that a stopping time is efficient if and only if it represents a time of the first attaining of a hyperplane., which cannot ‘be passed’, in the sense which is made precise below. The problem of determining the explicit form of the hyperplanes which cannot ‘be passed’ is also discussed.     

Encapsulation and release by star‐shaped block copolymers as unimolecular nanocontainers

A five‐arm star‐shaped poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) with terminal bromide groups was used as a macroinitiator for the atom transfer radical polymerization of tert‐butyl acrylate (tBA), resulting in five‐arm star‐shaped poly(ethylene oxide)‐block‐poly(tert‐butyl acrylate) block copolymers. The polymerization proceeded in a controlled way using a copper(I)bromide/pentamethyl diethylenetriamine catalytic system in acetonitrile as solvent. The hydrolysis of the tBA blocks of the amphiphilic star‐shaped PEO‐b‐PtBA block copolymer resulted in dihydrophilic star structures. The encapsulation of the star‐block copolymers and their release properties in acid environment have been followed by UV‐spectroscopy and color changes, using the dye methyl orange as a hydrophilic guest molecule. Characterization of the structures has been done by ¹H NMR, size exclusion chromatography, MALDI‐TOF, and differential scanning calorimetry. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Crystal and molecular structure of the inclusion compound between 1,1′-binaphthyl-2,2′-dicarboxylic acid and acetylacetone (1∶1)

The lattice type crystalline inclusion compound of 1,1-binaphthyl-2,2-dicarboxylic acid (BNDA) with acetylacetone (AcAc) 11 has been investigated by single crystal X-ray diffraction. AcAc is present as the enolic tautomer, stabilized by a notably short intramolecular hydrogen bond. This H-bond closes a six-membered ring with delocalization of the system of conjugated double bonds. In the crystal the AcAc molecules are incorporated into channels, delimited by bulky binaphyl moieties, in a hydrogen-bonded framework of BNDA, and they do not show any disorder. The strictly stoichiometric host:guest ratio seems to be enforced by packing forces only.     

How important is the dispersion interaction for cyclobis(paraquat‐p‐phenylene)‐based molecular “shuttles”? A theoretical study

Inclusion complexes of cyclobis(paraquat‐p‐phenylene) and various aromatic molecules in their neutral and oxidized form were studied at the LMP2/6‐311+G**//BHandHLYP/6‐31G* level of theory, which represents the highest level theoretical study to date for these complexes. The results show that it is dispersion interaction that contributes most to the binding energy. One electron oxidation of a guest molecule leads to complete dissociation of inclusion complex generating strong repulsion potential between guest and host molecules. Electrostatic interactions also can play an important role, provided the guest molecule has a dipole moment; however, dispersion interactions always dominate in binding energy. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
