RESUMO
Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) with tunable emission colors, especially white OLEDs, have rarely been observed with a single emitter in a single emissive layer. In this paper, we report a new compound featuring a D-A-D structure, 9,9'-(pyrimidine-2,5-diylbis(2,1-phenylene))bis(3,6-di-tert-butyl-9H-carbazole) (PDPC). A nondoped OLED using this compound as a single emitter exhibits unique voltage-dependent dual emission. The emission colors range from blue to orange-red with an increase in voltage, during which white electroluminescence with a Commission Internationale De L'Eclairage (CIE) coordinate of (0.35, 0.29) and a color render index (CRI) value of 93 was observed. A comparative study revealed that the dual emission simultaneously originates from the monomers and excimers of the emitter. This study provides insight into understanding the multimer-excited mechanism and developing novel color-tunable OLEDs.
RESUMO
A polycrystalline BiFeO3 film was deposited on ITO substrate by RF magnetron sputtering method. Small crystallite size and compact structure are obtained for BiFeO3 film which has the excellent ferroelectric properties. The measured photovoltaic response reveals an open-circuit voltage of ~0.52 V and a short-circuit current density of ~10 µA/cm² under the illumination of 100 mW/cm² irradiance. Moreover, a tunable photovoltaic effect with light illumination is observed under different voltage sweep mode. High initial sweep voltage can enhance the photovoltaic effect largely, however, the photovoltaic response decreases with the increase of voltage sweep interval. The results indicate the ferroelectric polarization plays an important role in the photovoltaic effect.
RESUMO
Pure phase polycrystalline BiFeO3 film was deposited onto FTO substrate by RF magnetron sputtering method. SEM result shows that BiFeO3 film has the obvious porosity and large clusters which lead to the poor ferroelectric and photovoltaic properties in FTO/BiFeO3/Ag device. However, these properties are improved in p-i-n structured FTO/TiO2/BiFeO3/HTM/Ag device by incorporating the electron and hole transport materials. The hysteresis loop measurement demonstrates the excellent ferroelectric property with large remnant polarization (2Pr = 180 µC/cm²) and low leakage current. The J-V curve shows the short-circuit current density is dozens of times larger than that of FTO/BiFeO3/Ag device. Moreover, the photovoltaic output depends on the poling field where the positive poling improves the short-circuit current density to -85 µA/cm2 and the negative poling reduces both the photocurrent and photovoltage. It is believed that the ferroelectric polarization plays a dominant role in the photovoltaic effect.
RESUMO
Well dispersed CeO2 nanoparticles are prepared by azeotropic co-precipitation method. (Ba0.96Ca0.04)(Ti0.90Sn0.10)O3 lead-free piezoelectric ceramics doped with nano-CeO2 (x =0 mol%, 0.03 mol%, and 0.07 mol%) and micro-CeO2 (x = 0.03 mol%) are prepared at 1430 °C for 2 h by the conventional solid state sintering method. XRD diffraction indicates that all components have typical perovskite structure. Both doping of nano-CeO2 and micro-CeO2 can inhibit grain growth. And the average grain size decreased apparently with the increase of nano-CeO2 amount. All the samples exhibit typical diffuse phase transition behavior. The optimized electrical performances are obtained at x = 0.03 mol% with d33 = 512 pC/N, kp = 41.5%, and Pr = 14.00 µC/cm².
RESUMO
The catalyst-free N-formylation of amines using CO2 as the C1 source and BH3NH3 as the reductant has been developed for the first time. The corresponding formylated products of both primary and secondary amines are obtained in good to excellent yields (up to 96% of isolated yield) under mild conditions.
