Organic materials are used in novel optoelectronic devices because of the ease and high compatibility of their fabrication processes. Here, we demonstrate a low-driving-voltage cathodic-controlled organic upconverter with a mapping application that converts near-infrared images to produce images of visible blood vessels. The proposed upconverter has a multilayer structure consisting of a photosensitive charge-generation layer (CGL) and a phosphorescent organic light-emitting diode (OLED) for producing clear images with a high resolution of 600 dots per inch. In this study, temperature-dependent electrical characterization was performed to analyze the interfacial modification of the cathodic-controlled upconverter. The result shows that the upconverter demonstrated a high conversion efficiency of 3.46% because of reduction in the injection barrier height at the interface between the CGL and the OLED.
The theory of vacuum preloading was mainly focused on calculations of settlement and consolidation degree, but not on the bearing capacity improvement under vacuum preloading. Based on the Mohr-Coulombs failure criterion and elastic-plastic theory, the formula of bearing capacity improvement of vacuum preloading foundation was deduced under undrained condition. The consolidation and vacuum attenuation degree were taken into the consideration, and a calculation formula with fewer parameters by using CU total stress strength index was derived. Meanwhile the relation between bearing capacity and undrained shear strength was presented as well as that of bearing capacity and vertical effective stress increment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
