Abstract

Robust method to process of OLEDs from water to avoid the use of hazardous solvents.

Size-dependent cathodoluminescence properties of 5,5′-di(4-biphenylyl)-2,2′-bithiophene nanocrystals

“…Although there have been studies on organic nanoparticlebased devices such as organic solar cells and organic lightemitting diodes prepared using aqueous nanodispersions for printed electronics applications, 16,17,36 details of the optical properties of organic nanoparticles have not been clarified. Size-dependent optical properties have been observed for nanoparticles comprising organic dyes and p-conjugated polymers.…”

Layer-by-Layer Naphthalenediimide/Zn Phosphonate Hybrid Films Grown from Aqueous Solutions by a Simple Deposition Technique

“…For device construction, the NDI are usually deposited as thin films. Film growth methods employing aqueous solutions at room temperature , are preferred to techniques using harsh organic solvents, due to their environmentally friendly nature and less energy-consuming methodology. The metal phosphonate method is an attractive alternative, generating hybrid organic–inorganic films by simple immersion of a substrate in alternated solutions of the organic compound and a metal cation.…”

Density, Refractive Index, pH, and Cloud Point Temperature Measurements and Thermal Expansion Coefficient Calculation for PPG400, PE62, L64, L35, PEG400, PEG600, or PEG1000 + Water Systems

“…Aqueous polymer solutions have been applied to a broad range of processes, such as fabrication of polymer electronic devices, drug delivery, polymerization reactions, forward osmosis, gas absorption, and aqueous biphasic separation…”

“…Thermodynamics of binary aqueous solutions is a broad research subject, which was investigated for several solutes, such as alcohols, 1 amines, 2 amides, 3 organic acids, 4 inorganic salts, 5 ionic liquids, 6 biomolecules, 7 and also polymers. 8−13 Aqueous polymer solutions have been applied to a broad range of processes, such as fabrication of polymer electronic devices, 14 drug delivery, 15 polymerization reactions, 16 forward osmosis, 17 gas absorption, 18 and aqueous biphasic separation. 19 To simulate aqueous biphasic separation processes, thermodynamic models should be tested for the prediction of thermophysical properties and phase equilibria behaviors under different conditions of pressure, temperature, and composition.…”
