High efficiency fluorescent white organic light-emitting diodes with red, green and blue separately monochromatic emission layers

Highly efficient fluorescent white organic light-emitting diodes (WOLEDs) have been fabricated by using three red, green and blue, separately monochromatic emission layers. The red and blue emissive layers are based on 4-(dicyanomethylene)-2-tert-butyl-6-(1,1,7,7-tetramethyljulolidin-4-yl-vinyl)-4H-pyran (DCJTB) doped N,N'-di(naphthalene-1-yl)-N,N'-diphenyl-benzidine (NPB) and p-bis(p-N,N-diphenyl-amino-styryl) benzene (DSA-ph) doped 2-methyl-9,10-di(2-naphthyl) anthracene (MADN), respectively; and the green emissive layer is based on tris(8-hydroxyquionline)aluminum(Alq(3)) doped with 10-(2-benzothiazolyl)-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1,1,7,7-tetramethyl- 1H,5H,1[H-(1)-benzopyropyrano(6,7-8-i,j)quinolizin-1]-one (C545T), which is sandwiched between the red and the blue emissive layers. It can be seen that the devices show stable white emission with Commission International de L'Eclairage coordinates of (0.41, 0.41) and color rendering index (CRI) of 84 in a wide range of bias voltages.

Achieving highly efficient white organic light-emitting diodes with reduced efficiency roll-off

A highly efficient and colour-stable three-wavelength white organic light-emitting diode with the structure of indium tin oxide (ITO)/MoO3/N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis (1-naphthylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (NPB)/4,4'-N,N'-dicarbazole-biphenyl (CBP): bis(2,4-diphenylquinolyl-N,C-2') iridium( acetylacetonate) (PPQ)(2)Ir(acac)/NPB/p-bis(p-N,N-diphenyl-aminostyryl)benzene (DSA-Ph):2-methyl-9,10-di(2-naphthyl) anthracene (MADN)/tris (8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (AlQ): 10-(2-Benzothiazolyl)-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1,1,7,7-tetramethyl-1H,5H,11H-(1)-benzopyropyrano(6,7-8-i,j)quinolizin-11-one (C545T)/AlQ/LiF/Al is fabricated and characterized. A current efficiency of 12.3 cdA(-1) at an illumination-relevant brightness of 1000 cd m(-2) is obtained, which rolls off slightly to 10.3 cdA(-1) at a rather high brightness of 10 000 cd m(-2). We attribute this great reduction in the efficiency roll-off to the wise management of singlet and triplet excitons between emissive layers as well as the superior charge injection and diffusion balance in the device.

Surface-appropriate lipophobicity - Application in isobutene oligomerization over Teflon-modified silica-supported 12-silicotungstic acid

A series of silica-supported 12-silicotungstic acid catalysts (H4SiW12O40, abbreviated as HSiW), modified with various loadings of Teflon (HSiW/SiO2-Teflon), were prepared by an impregnation method. The surface properties of the catalysts were studied by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), BET, infrared (IR) spectroscopy, NH3-TPD and the Drop Shape Analysis (DSA). SEM results combined with energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) measurements of HSiW/SiO2-Teflon revealed that F-compound (Teflon) is effectively coated on the catalyst surface. The contact angles for water and oil of 50 wt% HSiW/SiO2 and HSiW/SiO2-Teflon indicate that HSiW/SiO2-Teflon catalyst enhances not only the surface hydrophobicity but also the surface lipophobicity by means of the addition of Teflon. Silica-supported 12-silicotungstic acid modified with Teflon exhibits higher C-8(=) selectivity and longer lifetime than that of silica-supported 12-silicotungstic acid in isobutene oligomerization. Thus, surface-appropriate lipophobicity of catalysts may be effective for decreasing the interaction between coke precursors and the catalyst surface and for removing deposited coke more easily.

低甲醇透过直接甲醇燃料电池

直接甲醇燃料电池(DMFC)是一种清洁能源,具有高效、安全、无污染等优点[1～3],因此受到广泛关注。目前,在DMFC中广泛使用Nafion膜作为电解质膜,但甲醇透过Nafion膜后,不但氧阴极处产生混合电位,引起阴极催化剂中毒,导致阴极极化增加,电池性能降低,而且透过的甲醇未经反应从电池中排出,既浪费燃料又污染环境。甲醇透过Nafion膜是阻碍Nafion膜型直接甲醇燃料电池应用的主要技术问题之一[4,5]。为解决Nafion膜的甲醇透过问题,Pu等[6] 将一层致密的不透甲醇的质子导体夹在 2层Nafion膜之间形成复合电解质膜来消除甲醇透过。但是由于不同层之间的结合和膜厚度的增加,会使电解质膜的导质子性能降低。Won等[7] 和Yoon等[8] 采用刻蚀溅射法在Nafion膜表面修饰一层金属钯来降低甲醇透过,但该方法存在钯和Nafion膜表面结合不牢固和钯的用量相对较大等缺点。本文首次报道采用化学镀钯修饰Nafion膜的方法来降低甲醇透过率。Pd(NH3 )4 Cl2 和NaBH4均为上海试剂一厂产品 ,其它试剂均为分析纯。所有的溶液均用三次蒸馏水配制。

SYNTHESIS AND CRYSTAL-STRUCTURE OF [(ME4C2CP2SMCL.MGCL2.3THF)THF]2

[(Me4C2Cp2SmCl.MgCl2.3THF)THF]2 was prepared by the reaction of Me4C2Cp2MgCl2.4THF (Cp=C5H4, THF = tetrahydrofuran) with SmCl3 in THF.

Three oxygen atoms of THF and three chlorine atoMS (Cl1, Cl2, Cl3) constitute a distorted octahedron around Mg.

ELECTROCHEMICAL-BEHAVIOR OF YTTRIUM ION IN LICL-KCL-NACL EUTECTIC MELT

The electrochemical reduction of yttrium ion on a molybdenum electrode in a LiCl-KCl-NaCl eutectic melt at 723 K was found to be almost reversible and to proceed by a one-step three electron reaction. The diffusion coefficient D of the Y(III) ion was measured to be (3.3 +/- 0.4) x 10(-6) cm2 s-1 by cyclic voltammetry, (5.0 +/- 0.9) x 10(-6) cm2 s-1 by the rotating disk electrode method, and (7.1 +/- 0.7) x 10(-6) cm2 s-1 by chronopotentiometry. The D values obtained by the latter two methods are in fairly good agreement with each other. The rather low D value obtained by cyclic voltammetry might be attributed to the fact that yttrium metal can dissolve slightly in the chloride melt. The standard potential of Y(III)/Y(0) couple was determined to be (-3.174 +/- 0.006) V (vs. Cl2/Cl-) by open-circuit potentiometry, (-3.15 +/- 0.02) V (vs. Cl2/Cl-) by the rotating disk electrode method and (-3.16 +/- 0.02) V (vs. Cl2/Cl) by chronopotentiometry. These three values are in good agreement with each other. Several types of Ni-Y intermetallic compounds were found to be formed on a nickel electrode.

贵州省遵义市大气降水中有机和无机地球化学特征研究

正确认识降水中的化学组分是评价酸雨和大气环境质量的重要途径，降水中低分子有机酸的研究是认识C、H、O等元素生物地球化学循环和酸雨成因的重要内容。贵州省遵义市作为我国酸雨高发地区，是降水化学组成尤其是低分子有机酸地球化学循环研究的典型区域。我们在遵义市进行了为期一年(2006年5月~2007年4月)的降水采集(共76个样品)，对pH值、电导率和主要的阴离子(包括有机和无机)、阳离子进行了测定，并进行了分析和讨论。 (1) pH和电导率的雨量加权平均值分别为4.11(范围：2.30~ 6.04)和62.10 μs•cm-1 (范围：6.60 ~ 1630.00 μs•cm-1)，酸雨频率高达93.2%，pH存在着显著的季节变化，其中冬季pH值最低，表明遵义市酸雨污染较为严重，冬季为最。 (2) 遵义市监测期间离子浓度的大小顺序为SO42-> Ca2+> H+> NH4+> NO3-> Cl-> F->HCOO-> Mg2+> K+> CH3COO-> Na+> (COO)22-> PO43-> NO2-，其中SO42-、Ca2+、H+、NH4+、NO3-是最主要离子，浓度分别为148.15 μmol•L-1、81.89 μmol•L-1、77.74 μmol•L-1、43.80 μmol•L-1和31.50μmol•L-1，它们分别占离子总量的31.97%、17.67%、16.78%、9.45%和6.54%；遵义市大气降水中主要的致酸物质是SO42-和NO3-，主要的缓冲物质是Ca2+和NH4+，大气污染类型属硫酸钙型。相对酸度和中和因子结果表明降水中仅有77%的降水酸度被碱性物质(以Ca2+和NH4+为主)中和；因子分析中H+、NO3-、nss-SO42-(非海源性硫酸根)、NH4+归为一组，再次表明SO42-和NO3-对降水酸度的重要贡献。富集系数和源的贡献分析表明，SO42-和NO3-主要来自人为活动的贡献，SO42-来源主要包括工业、民用的燃煤燃烧释放的SO2，NO3-主要是遵义市电厂和其它工厂向大气中排放的NOx的化学转化而成。Ca2+主要来自于遵义市的土壤及水泥厂等的排放；Mg2+主要来自陆源输入，部分来自海水的贡献。氮肥生产、大面积农田化肥的使用以及生物排放源很可能是该地区降水中NH4+的主要污染源。值得注意的是，作为海盐性离子的Cl-，在遵义市降水中重要的部分还是人为活动，主要是遵义工厂(如碱厂和钛厂)向大气中排放的HCl和Cl2转化而成。无机离子浓度的季节变化表明，对于遵义市，需要逐步改变能源结构尤其是冬季工业、居民燃煤的使用，才能有效地改善遵义市当前的环境污染。 (3) 遵义市降水中含量较高的常见有机酸是[HCOO-]T、[CH3COO-]T和[(COO)22-]T，它们的雨量加权平均值各为9.29 μmol•L -1、6.47 μmol•L-1和5.06 μmol•L-1；遵义市区降水中有机酸总浓度为22.28 μmol•L-1，占阴离子总量的9.39 %；遵义市降水中四季的有机酸浓度由高到低分别为：春季>冬季>秋季>夏季。以上结果表明，遵义市的有机酸是降水中的重要组成部分，其浓度存在明显的季节性变化。在一次降雨事件中，有机酸的浓度一般随降雨时间的延长而降低，但在降雨中后期有时会出现上升的现象，表明有机酸主要来自云下淋滤作用，少数情况下来自大气远距离的传输。 (4) 相关性分析发现甲酸和乙酸具有强烈的正相关(r= 0.86)，表明甲酸和乙酸具有共同的来源。有机酸与降水中的主要无机离子NO3-、nss-SO42-、K+、Na+、Ca2+等存在着中度相关，表明有机酸的来源与人为活动有着重要的关系。应用气液平衡的原理，提出了降水中甲酸、乙酸比值(F/A)aq的有机酸来源判定方法。发现遵义降水中的有机酸春季和冬季主要来自人类活动的释放，其中春季主要来自遵义市南郊的工业污染，由南方水汽(占春季总量的54%)将其污染物传输至遵义市中心城区，冬季主要是大量燃煤的燃烧释放；夏季和秋季则主要来自植物的释放，其中秋季中的部分有机酸也受到华中和华东地区(其气团占秋季总量的45%)的远距离影响。而遵义市区的山间盆地地形、高湿度、高静风率和低风速、以尘埃为主的大气污染物和有机酸的短生命周期(几小时~几天)为有机酸来源于当地创造了有利条件。 (5) 根据热力学平衡计算新方法，发现遵义市pH≤5的降水中甲酸和乙酸对自由酸度的贡献分别为14.79% (范围：0.42~91.14%)、3.66% (范围：0.02~31.55%)。对比显示，遵义市的有机酸贡献量低于边远地区，主要由于遵义市降水的低pH值和高无机酸度所致。在春、夏、秋、冬季节，降水中的有机酸对自由酸度的平均贡献值分别为31.95%、26.16%、8.02%、11.17%，表明有机酸酸度有着明显的季节性差异，春季有机酸的高贡献量主要受降水中的有机酸高含量、低水温和高pH值的共同作用，夏季受高pH值的影响，而秋季和冬季的低贡献量主要受降水的低pH值所控制。 (6) 在遵义市的沉降通量中，无机离子的湿沉降通量占所有离子湿沉降总量的94%，并存在明显的季节性变化。SO42-、Ca2+、H+、NH4+、NO3-为最主要的贡献者，分别为90.1、49.8、47.3、26.0和19.2 mmol•m-2•yr-1。对比显示，SO42-、Ca2+、H+的沉降量均属于我国的高值区，而NO3-的沉降量属于我国中值区，NH4+的沉降量属我国低值水平。营养元素总无机氮TIN(TIN= NH4+ -N+ NO3- -N+ NO2- -N)的湿沉降总量为45.7 mmol•m-2•yr-1，其中NH4+和NO3-分别占TIN的57.0%和41.9%，遵义地区高TIN值当地氮肥的施用量和工业NOx的释放量密不可分；营养元素P的沉降量为1.97 mmol•m-2•yr-1，由于P的来源较少，促使P的湿沉降通量较低。有机酸占湿沉降总量的6%，其四季的湿沉降量顺序由高到低依次为：春>秋>冬>夏，这是有机离子的浓度和四季的降雨量共同作用的结果。根据气液平衡理论可知，挥发性有机酸(HCOO-、CH3COO-和CH3CH2COO-)的干沉降量占总沉降量的47.2%，表明遵义市有机酸沉降方式包括干湿沉降两种。因此在研究遵义市的污染物尤其是有机酸类对生态系统和城市建设的影响时，有必要同时收集气样和水样。

Integrated spot size converters for InP based photonic systems

The ever increasing demand for broadband communications requires sophisticated devices. Photonic integrated circuits (PICs) are an approach that fulfills those requirements. PICs enable the integration of different optical modules on a single chip. Low loss fiber coupling and simplified packaging are key issues in keeping the price of PICs at a low level. Integrated spot size converters (SSC) offer an opportunity to accomplish this. Design, fabrication and characterization of SSCs based on an asymmetric twin waveguide (ATG) at a wavelength of 1.55 μm are the main elements of this dissertation. It is theoretically and experimentally shown that a passive ATG facilitates a polarization filter mechanism. A reproducible InP process guideline is developed that achieves vertical waveguides with smooth sidewalls. Birefringence and resonant coupling are used in an ATG to enable a polarization filtering and splitting mechanism. For the first time such a filter is experimentally shown. At a wavelength of 1610 nm a power extinction ratio of (1.6 ± 0.2) dB was measured for the TE- polarization in a single approximately 372 μm long TM- pass polarizer. A TE-pass polarizer with a similar length was demonstrated with a TM/TE-power extinction ratio of (0.7 ± 0.2) dB at 1610 nm. The refractive indices of two different InGaAsP compositions, required for a SSC, are measured by the reflection spectroscopy technique. A SSC layout for dielectric-free fabricated compact photodetectors is adjusted to those index values. The development and the results of the final fabrication procedure for the ATG concept are outlined. The etch rate, sidewall roughness and selectivity of a Cl2/CH4/H2 based inductively coupled plasma (ICP) etch are investigated by a design of experiment approach. The passivation effect of CH4 is illustrated for the first time. Conditions are determined for etching smooth and vertical sidewalls up to a depth of 5 μm.

An investigation on the use of SNR distributions for the optimisation of coarse-fine spectrum sensing for cognitive radio

This thesis investigates the optimisation of Coarse-Fine (CF) spectrum sensing architectures under a distribution of SNRs for Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA). Three different detector architectures are investigated: the Coarse-Sorting Fine Detector (CSFD), the Coarse-Deciding Fine Detector (CDFD) and the Hybrid Coarse-Fine Detector (HCFD). To date, the majority of the work on coarse-fine spectrum sensing for cognitive radio has focused on a single value for the SNR. This approach overlooks the key advantage that CF sensing has to offer, namely that high powered signals can be easily detected without extra signal processing. By considering a range of SNR values, the detector can be optimised more effectively and greater performance gains realised. This work considers the optimisation of CF spectrum sensing schemes where the security and performance are treated separately. Instead of optimising system performance at a single, constant, low SNR value, the system instead is optimised for the average operating conditions. The security is still provided such that at the low SNR values the safety specifications are met. By decoupling the security and performance, the system’s average performance increases whilst maintaining the protection of licensed users from harmful interference. The different architectures considered in this thesis are investigated in theory, simulation and physical implementation to provide a complete overview of the performance of each system. This thesis provides a method for estimating SNR distributions which is quick, accurate and relatively low cost. The CSFD is modelled and the characteristic equations are found for the CDFD scheme. The HCFD is introduced and optimisation schemes for all three architectures are proposed. Finally, using the Implementing Radio In Software (IRIS) test-bed to confirm simulation results, CF spectrum sensing is shown to be significantly quicker than naive methods, whilst still meeting the required interference probability rates and not requiring substantial receiver complexity increases.

Insertion of metal oxides into block copolymer nanopatterns as robust etch masks for nanolithography

Directed self-assembly (DSA) of block copolymers (BCPs) is a prime candidate to further extend dimensional scaling of silicon integrated circuit features for the nanoelectronic industry. Top-down optical techniques employed for photoresist patterning are predicted to reach an endpoint due to diffraction limits. Additionally, the prohibitive costs for “fabs” and high volume manufacturing tools are issues that have led the search for alternative complementary patterning processes. This thesis reports the fabrication of semiconductor features from nanoscale on-chip etch masks using “high χ” BCP materials. Fabrication of silicon and germanium nanofins via metal-oxide enhanced BCP on-chip etch masks that might be of importance for future Fin-field effect transistor (FinFETs) application are detailed.
