Red top-emitting organic light-emitting device with improved efficiency and saturated color

In this work, characteristics of microcavity top-emitting red organic light-emitting device (TEROLED) having metallic electrodes had been examined. The TEOLED shows the higher efficiency in comparison with that of the bottom OLED. However, color variation with the increasing view angles is also observed. For the purpose of diminishing the blue-shift of resonant wavelength (RW) in the device with increasing view angle, the effect of out-coupling layer on the emission properties of the TEOLED is discussed in detail. Finally, the out-coupling layer was introduced in theory without sacrificing the efficiency through precise optical simulation.     

Research on Flood Loss Distribution and Catastrophe Bond Pricing Based on Bayesian Inference

Taking flood catastrophe risk in China as the research background, aiming at the characteristics of flood loss ``low frequency and high loss', Bayesian inference method is used to fit the loss distribution, and Bayesian inference is used to obtain the loss frequency distribution and loss quota distribution of flood in China. On this basis, Monte Carlo simulation method is used to calculate the probability distribution of annual flood loss in China under different trigger conditions, and then CAPM is used to study the pricing of flood catastrophe bonds in China. It is concluded that under different trigger conditions, as the trigger value increases gradually, the corresponding trigger is triggered. Comparing the three types of bonds, it can be found that the price of bonds decreases with the decrease of principal guarantee ratio and the increase of principal loss ratio, that is, the investment risk is directly proportional to the return, which provides reference for issuing flood catastrophe bonds in China.

First nucleation steps during deposition of SiO2 thin films by plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition

The initial nucleation stages during deposition of SiO₂ by remote plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD) have been monitored by XPS inelastic peak shape analysis. Experiments have been carried out on two substrates, a flat ZrO₂ thin film and a silicon wafer with a native silicon oxide layer on its surface. For the two substrates it is found that PECVD SiO₂ grows in the form of islands. When the SiO₂ particles reach heights close to 10 nm they coalesce and cover completely the substrate surface. The particle formation mechanism has been confirmed by TEM observation of the particles grown on silicon substrates. The kinetic Monte Carlo simulation of the nucleation and growth of the SiO₂ particles has shown that formation of islands is favoured under PECVD conditions because the plasma species may reach the substrate surface according to off-perpendicular directions. The average energy of these species is the main parameter used to describe their angular distribution function, while the reactivity of the surface is another key parameter used in the simulations.     

Numerical study of InGaN tandem solar cells with intermediate bands

Theoretical investigations of InGaN tandem solar cells with intermediate bands (IBs) have been conducted through calculating the diode equation taking into account the radiative and nonradiative recombination currents. The calculated maximum ef?ciencies of the double‐junction cell with one IB in each subcell are 57.85% and 68.37% under AM1.5G one‐sun and 46000‐sun illuminations, respectively. It has also been observed that the combined device with the top‐cell bandgaps of 2.9–3.4 eV (2.6–3.4 eV for full concentration) may have an opportunity to realize the application of over 50% efficiency. We suggest that the optimized width of the IB layer be designed in the range of 1–6 μm if its absorption coefficient is 10⁴–10⁵ cm^–1 in the IB region.     

Monte Carlo simulation of magnetic phase transitions in Mn-doped ZnO

The magnetic properties of Mn-doped ZnO semiconductor have been investigated using the Monte Carlo method within the Ising model. The temperature dependences of the spontaneous magnetization, specific heat and magnetic susceptibility have been constructed for different concentrations of magnetic dopant Mn and different carrier concentrations. The exact values of Mn concentration and carrier concentration at which high temperature transition occurs are determined. An alternative for the explanation of some controversies concerning the existence and the nature of magnetism in Mn diluted in ZnO systems is given. Other features are also studied.     

Quantum mechanical Monte Carlo approach to electron transport at heterointerface

With the progress of LSI technology, the electronic device size is scaled down to the sub 0.1μ m region. In such an ultrasmall device, it is indispensable to take quantum mechanical effects into account in device modeling. In this paper, we present a newly developed quantum Monte Carlo device simulation applicable to ultrasmall semiconductor devices. In this model, the quantum effects are represented in terms of quantum mechanically corrected potential in the classical Boltzmann equation. It is demonstrated that the quantum transport effects such as tunneling and energy quantization in ultrasmall semiconductor devices are obtained for the first time by using the standard Monte Carlo techniques.     

石墨烯纳米孔道内受限水介电常数影响因素的分子动力学模拟

受限水的介电特性对于石墨烯电容器的储能效率有着重大的影响.因此本文使用分子动力模方法,研究了不同石墨烯纳米孔道宽度(0.812～10 nm)下内受限水介电常数的分布及其影响因素.结果表明,在石墨烯纳米孔道内部受限水双电层结构可分为空隙层、界面层和体相层三个部分.其整体的介电常数随孔道大小的降低而线性减少.这是由内部体相层的宽度的降低而导致的.此外电极电压大小和石墨烯-水相互作用参数ε_CO的强弱也会显著改变电极表面的双电层(Electric Double Layers, EDLs)结构.其中电压的增大使得介电常数分布的震荡的程度也随之增加,最终导致了整体介电常数的减小.与之类似,亲水态的石墨烯表面(高ε_CO)下受限水分布的震荡程度也显著增加,这导致了整体介电常数的降低.     

Clusters,metastability, and nucleation: Kinetics of first-order phase transitions

We describe and interpret computer simulations of the time evolution of a binary alloy on a cubic lattice, with nearest neighbor interactions favoring like pairs of atoms. Initially the atoms are arranged at random; the time evolution proceeds by random interchanges of nearest neighbor pairs, using probabilities compatible with the equilibrium Gibbs distribution at temperatureT. For temperatures 0.59T_c, 0.81 T_c, and 0.89T _c, with density of A atoms equal to that in the B-rich phase at coexistence, the density C₁ of clusters ofl A atoms approximately satisfies the following empirical formulas: C₁ w(1 –)³ andC ₁, (1 –)⁴Q₁w¹ (2 l 10). Herew is a parameter and we defineQ _l = _K e ^–E(K) , where the sum goes over all translationally nonequivalentl-particle clusters andE(K) is the energy of formation of the clusterK. Forl > 10,Q ₁ is not known exactly; so we use an extrapolation formulaQ _l Aw _s ^–l l ^– exp(–bl ), wherew _s is the value ofw at coexistence. The same formula (withw > w _s) also fits the observed values of C, (for small values ofl) at densities greater than the coexistence density (forT=0.59T_c): When the supersaturation is small, the simulations show apparently metastable states, a theoretical estimate of whose lifetime is compatible with the observations. For higher supersaturation the system is observed to undergo a slow process of segregation into two coexisting phases (andw therefore changes slowly with time). These results may be interpreted as a more quantitative formulation (and confirmation) of ideas used in standard nucleation theory. No evidence for a spinodal transition is found.Supported by AFOSR Grant No. 73-2430D and by ERDA Contract No. EY-76-C-02-3077*000.     

Approach to Generate Radiometric Images

A new technique to generate radiometric images from the optical images is introduced in this paper. This technique can be applied in generating the source images for purpose of image-matching navigation. For comparison, two radiometric images are presents, one is imaged by a 8mm ground-based radiometer and the other is generated by this technique.
