Efficient green electroluminescent cells using a poly(p-phenylene vinylene) multiblock copolymer sandwiched between carrier-transporting layers

With a newly synthesized poly(p-phenylene vinylene) (PPV) multiblock copolymer used in a triple-layer structure, efficient green light-emitting diodes with low driving voltage have been fabricated. The devices are turned on at 2.5 V, the brightness at 5 V is above 100 cd/m(2) and at 7 V is about 1650 cd/m(2), with an external quantum efficiency of about 1%. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science S.A.

THE TRANSFER OF METAL-IONS ACROSS THE WATER-NITROBENZENE INTERFACE FACILITATED BY NEUTRAL CARRIER ETH-129

The transfer of H+, Li+, Na+, Zn2+, Mg2+ and Cu2+ facilitated by ionophore ETH 129 (N, N, N', N'-tetracyolohexyl-3-oxapentanediamide) across water/nitrobenzene interface has been studied by the cyclic voltammetry. The mechanism of the transfer process has been discussed. The diffusion coefficients and the stability constants of the complexes formed in the nitrobenzene phase have been determined.
