Published: May 2008

To be legible in high-ambient light conditions, organic light-emitting-diode displays should be optically designed to have a minimal reflectance without significantly affecting their overall efficiency. We demonstrate the use of an anode consisting of a partially absorbing metal layer and a multilayer distributed Bragg reflector to simultaneously absorb rather than reflect incoming light and to take advantage of a weak microcavity effect in the diode to improve light outcoupling.

Highly energetic boron (B) particles embedded in hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) thermosetting polymers represent stable solid-state fuel. Laser-heating of levitated B/HTPB and pure HTPB particles in a controlled atmosphere revealed spontaneous ignition of B/HTPB in air, allowing for examination of the exclusive roles of boron. These ignition events are probed via simultaneous spectroscopic diagnostics: Raman and infrared spectroscopy, temporally resolved high-speed optical and infrared cameras, and ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy.

The Role of Nonequilibrium Solvent Effects in Enhancing Direct CO Capture at the Air-Aqueous Amino Acid Interface.

Direct air capture (DAC) technologies are limited by the poor understanding of the dynamic role of interfaces in modulating the chemisorption of CO from air into solutions. While the reactivity of aqueous amine-based solvents in the bulk environment is strongly inhibited by nonequilibrium solvent effects, promoting DAC at interfaces posits a possibility to reduce the coupling with the solvent and significantly accelerate DAC. Building on an experimentally proven concept to bring an anionic glycine absorbent to the interface through ion-pairing interactions with a positively charged surfactant, we establish the fundamental time scales for key elementary steps involved in DAC with rate theory and enhanced-sampling molecular dynamics simulations.

Objective: To explore effectiveness of arthroscopic Eden-Hybinette procedure with Triple-Pulley and four point anti-rotation fixation technique in the treatment of recurrent anterior dislocation of shoulder joint.

Methods: A clinical data of 14 patients with recurrent anterior dislocation of shoulder joint and glenoid bone defect, who were met the selective criteria and admitted between February 2021 and February 2022, was retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with arthroscopic Eden-Hybinette procedure and the bone blocks were fixed by using Triple-Pulley and four point anti-rotation fixation technique.
