RESUMO

To analyze the lifetime difference based on the charge dynamics in the emitting layer (EML), we applied two electron transport layers (ETLs) with significantly different electron transporting characteristics to the same EML. Even with the same EML configuration, the device lifetime increased by approximately 4-fold, from 291 h to over 1000 h of LT50 (the time taken for the luminance to decrease to 50% of its initial value of 1000 cd/m2). Although trap/detrap of holes in the dopant molecules was observed through impedance spectroscopy, we found that the most significant difference in lifetime was caused by the quantity of electron current. Surprisingly, depending on the electron transporting layer, the primary bimolecular interaction in the EML (i.e., exciton-exciton, exciton-polaron interaction) dramatically changes even in the same EML configuration, which is theoretically analyzed by the numerical fitting of transient electroluminescence data and experimentally confirmed by magneto-electroluminescence (MEL) measurements. To the best of our knowledge, for the first time, the MEL measurements are demonstrated as a tool that can be utilized to intuitively discern the dominance of bimolecular interaction with respect to the operational stability of phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PhOLEDs).

RESUMO

Microplastics adsorb toxic substances and act as a transport medium. When microplastics adsorbed with toxic substances accumulate in the body, the microplastics and the adsorbed toxic substances can cause serious diseases, such as cancer. This work aimed to develop a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) detection method for surface-adsorbent toxic substances by forming gold nanogaps on microplastics using surface acoustic waves (SAWs). Polystyrene microparticles (PSMPs; 1 µm) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), including pyrene, anthracene, and fluorene, were selected as microplastics and toxic substances, respectively. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs; 50 nm) were used as a SERS agent. The Raman characteristic peaks of the PAHs adsorbed on the surface of PSMPs were detected, and the SERS intensity and logarithm of the concentrations of pyrene, anthracene, and fluorene showed a linear relationship (R2 = 0.98), and the limits of detection were 95, 168, and 195 nM, respectively. Each PAH was detected on the surface of PSMPs, which were adsorbed with toxic substances in a mixture of three PAHs, indicating that the technique can be used to elucidate mixtures of toxic substances. The proposed SERS detection method based on SAWs could sense toxic substances that were surface-adsorbed on microplastics and can be utilized to monitor or track pollutants in aquatic environments.

RESUMO

The use of triplet excitons harvesting and short exciton lifetime organic emitters is important to improve the exciton utilization in organic semiconductor laser diodes. In this study, a hybridized local and charge-transfer (HLCT)-type molecule, 11-(3-(10-(4-(1-phenyl-1H-phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazol-2-yl)phenyl)anthracen-9-yl)phenyl)-11H-benzofuro[3,2-b]carbazole (PhAnMBf), is used as an emitter for blue-emitting organic solid-state lasers (OSSLs). The short exciton lifetime and high photoluminescence quantum yield of the PhAnMBf emitter allowed the fabrication of an organic laser with an emission wavelength of 453 nm, a small full width at half-maximum of 1.2 nm, and a threshold of 105 nJ/pulse, corresponding to 44 µJ/cm2, on the distributed feedback substrate. The anthracene-based PhAnMBf material showed the potential of the HLCT emitter as an OSSL.

RESUMO

The theoretical efficiency limit of fluorescence organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) was successfully surpassed by utilizing the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect with conventional emissive materials. The interaction between polaritons and plexcitons generated during the LSPR process was also analyzed experimentally. As a result, the external quantum efficiency (EQE) increased dramatically from 6.01 to 15.43%, significantly exceeding the theoretical efficiency limit of fluorescent OLEDs. Additionally, we introduced a new concept of the LSPR effect, called "LSPR sensitizer", which allowed for simultaneous improvement in color conversion and efficiency through cascade transfer of the LSPR effect. To the best of our knowledge, the EQE and the current efficiency of our LSPR-OLED are the highest among LSPR-based fluorescent OLEDs to date.

RESUMO

The aim of this study is to evaluate the wear volume of interim crowns fabricated using digital light processing 3D printing according to the printing angle. A total of five patients undergoing the placement of a single crown on the mandibular molar were included. Interim crowns were fabricated directly in the oral cavity using the conventional method. A digital light processing 3D printer was then used to fabricate crowns with build angles of 0, 45, and 90 degrees. Therefore, four fabricated interim crowns were randomly delivered to the patients, and each was used for one week. Before and after use, the intaglio surfaces of the interim crowns were scanned using a 3D scanner. The volume changes before and after use were measured, and changes in the height of the occlusal surface were evaluated using the root mean square value. Data normality was verified by statistical analysis, and the wear volume in each group was evaluated using a one-way analysis of variance and Tukey's honestly significant difference test (α = 0.05). Compared with the RMS values of the conventional method (11.88 ± 2.69 µm) and the 3D-printing method at 0 degrees (12.14 ± 2.38 µm), the RMS values were significantly high at 90 degrees (16.46 ± 2.39 µm) (p < 0.05). Likewise, there was a significant difference in the change in volume between the groups (p = 0.002), with a significantly higher volume change value at 90 degrees (1.74 ± 0.41 mm3) than in the conventional method (0.70 ± 0.15 mm3) (p < 0.05). A printing angle of 90 degrees is not recommended when interim crowns are fabricated using digital light processing 3D printing.

RESUMO

With the development of information technology and the Internet, users can conveniently use roaming services without time and space restrictions. This roaming service is initiated by establishing a session key between a home node, which exists in a home network, and a mobile node, which exists in a foreign network. However, in the process of verifying a legitimate user and establishing a session key, various security threats and privacy exposure issues can arise. This study demonstrates that the authentication scheme for the roaming service proposed in the existing Global Mobility Network (GLOMONET) environment has several vulnerabilities and, hence, is impractical. In addition, the scheme does not satisfy the privacy of the session key or user's identity or password. Accordingly, we propose a new lightweight authentication scheme to compensate for these vulnerabilities and secure a high level of privacy, such as non-traceability. In addition, formal and informal analyses are conducted to examine the safety of the proposed scheme. Based on the results of our analyses, we prove that the proposed scheme is highly secure and applicable to the actual GLOMONET environment.

RESUMO

Internet of Things (IoT) technology has recently been integrated with various healthcare devices to monitor patients' health status and share it with their healthcare practitioners. Since healthcare data often contain personal and sensitive information, healthcare systems must provide a secure user authentication scheme. Recently, Adavoudi-Jolfaei et al. and Sharma and Kalra proposed a lightweight protocol using hash function encryption only for user authentication on wireless sensor systems. In this paper, we found some weaknesses in target schemes. We propose a novel three-factor lightweight user authentication scheme that addresses these weaknesses and verifies the security of the proposed scheme using a formal verification tool called ProVerif. In addition, our proposed scheme outperforms other proposed symmetric encryption-based schemes or elliptic curve-based schemes.

RESUMO

In this study, we designed and synthesized two blue fluorescence materials using phenylanthracenesubstituted-indenoquinoline derivatives by Suzuki coupling reaction for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs).

RESUMO

This study aimed to develop a highly efficient nanofilter for capturing fine particles using electrostatic forces. Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), a water-soluble synthetic polymer, was selected as the main component of the filter because it can be easily fabricated by electrospinning. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanopowder with an anatase structure was applied to the nanofilters as it has the highest photocatalytic activity among the existing photocatalysts. PVA nanofilters fabricated by electrospinning could still be dissolved in water by hydrolysis. Therefore, heat treatment was performed to make the nanofilters stable, thereby forming C=O bonds by keto-enol tautomerization. Structural changes in the PVA nanofilter before and after heat treatment were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) analysis. As the TiO2 concentration increased, the fiber diameter of the PVA nanofilter decreased and a homogeneous fiber was obtained. The filtration efficiency and pressure drop also improved significantly, compared to those of the PVA-only nanofilter. Moreover, we observed eco-friendly decomposition of the PVA/TiO2 nanofilter into water and carbon dioxide by a photocatalytic reaction under UV irradiation.

RESUMO

Wireless sensor networks are widely used in many applications such as environmental monitoring, health care, smart grid and surveillance. Many security protocols have been proposed and intensively studied due to the inherent nature of wireless networks. In particular, Wu et al. proposed a promising authentication scheme which is sufficiently robust against various attacks. However, according to our analysis, Wu et al.'s scheme has two serious security weaknesses against malicious outsiders. First, their scheme can lead to user impersonation attacks. Second, user anonymity is not preserved in their scheme. In this paper, we present these vulnerabilities of Wu et al.'s scheme in detail. We also propose a new scheme to complement their weaknesses. We improve and speed up the vulnerability of the Wu et al. scheme. Security analysis is analyzed by Proverif and informal analysis is performed for various attacks.

RESUMO

With the evolution of communication technology and the exponential increase of mobile devices, the ubiquitous networking allows people to use our data and computing resources anytime and everywhere. However, numerous security concerns and complicated requirements arise as these ubiquitous networks are deployed throughout people's lives. To meet the challenge, the user authentication schemes in ubiquitous networks should ensure the essential security properties for the preservation of the privacy with low computational cost. In 2017, Chaudhry et al. proposed a password-based authentication scheme for the roaming in ubiquitous networks to enhance the security. Unfortunately, we found that their scheme remains insecure in its protection of the user privacy. In this paper, we prove that Chaudhry et al.'s scheme is vulnerable to the stolen-mobile device and user impersonation attacks, and its drawbacks comprise the absence of the incorrect login-input detection, the incorrectness of the password change phase, and the absence of the revocation provision. Moreover, we suggest a possible way to fix the security flaw in Chaudhry et al's scheme by using the biometric-based authentication for which the bio-hash is applied in the implementation of a three-factor authentication. We prove the security of the proposed scheme with the random oracle model and formally verify its security properties using a tool named ProVerif, and analyze it in terms of the computational and communication cost. The analysis result shows that the proposed scheme is suitable for resource-constrained ubiquitous environments.

RESUMO

Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) is a powerful technique to visualize photophysical characteristics of biological targets. However, conventional FLIM methods have some limitations that restrict obtaining high-precision images in real time. Here, we propose a high-speed time-resolved laser-scanning microscopy by incorporating a novel line-to-pixel referencing method into the previously suggested analog mean-delay (AMD) method. The AMD method dramatically enhances the photon accumulation speed for achieving the certain precision compared to the time-correlated single-photon counting (TCSPC) method while maintaining high photon efficiency. However, its imaging pixel rate can still be restricted by the rearm time of the digitizer when it is triggered by laser pulses. With our line-to-pixel referencing method, the pulse train repeats faster than the trigger rearm time can be utilized by generating a line trigger, which is phase-locked with only the first pulse in each horizontal line composing an image. Our proposed method has been tested with a pulsed laser with 40 MHz repetition rate and a commercial digitizer with a 500 ns trigger rearm time, and a frame rate of 3.73 fps with a pixel rate of 3.91 MHz was accomplished while maintaining the measurement precision under 20 ps.

RESUMO

In this paper, we propose a new in-plane XYθz nano-positioning stage that utilizes piezoelectric actuators and flexure mechanisms. The proposed stage has an aperture and is compact, which facilitates its application in measurement equipment, especially those used for biological specimens. The stage has four piezoelectric actuators and four bridge-type flexure mechanisms, which are used to amplify the small motions produced by the piezoelectric actuators. This paper describes the modeling and design optimization of the stage, which has X- and Y-direction motion ranges of 300 µm and a θz-direction motion range of ±3.9 mrad. The stage measures 150 × 150 × 23 mm, and its aperture is 50 × 50 mm.
