In this work, we demonstrate how engineering the dielectric layer based on high-k polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)-based polymers can lead to a drastic reduction of device driving voltages and the improvement of its optoelectronic properties. We first investigated the morphology and the dielectric response of these polymer dielectrics in terms of polymer (P(VDF-TrFE) and P(VDF-TrFE-CFE)) and solvent content (cyclopentanone, methylethylketone). Implementing these high-k PVDF-based dielectrics enabled low-bias ambipolar organic light emitting transistors, with reduced threshold voltages (<20 V) and enhanced light output (compared to conventional polymer reference), along with an overall improvement of the device efficiency. Further, we preliminary transferred these fluorinated high-k dielectric films onto a plastic substrate to enable flexible light emitting transistors. These findings hold potential for broader exploitation of the OLET platform, where the device can now be driven by commercially available electronics, thus enabling flexible low-bias organic electronic devices.Peer reviewe
Pirandello: Guida al “Fu Mattia Pascal”
No full textCome e perché rileggere, a cent'anni di distanza, il "Fu Mattia Pascal" di Pirandello? Occorre innanzitutto inserire l'opera all'interno del romanzo europeo, poi ripercorrerne la stesura fra uscita in rivista e pubblicazioni in volume, infine studiarne anche le riscritture cinematografiche, due delle quali ebbero la collaborazione di Pirandello stesso. L'analisi dei personaggi principali e delle loro relazioni, e infine il riconoscimento di alcuni motivi cari alla narrativa precedente - da quello del patto col diavolo a quello del viaggio in treno a quello ancora della morte della tragedia - mettono in luce lo spessore teorico del romanzo, e la sua appartenenza di diritto alla piena riflessione novecentesca

The Nurse of Elfland: Lizzie Endicott and C.S. Lewis
Get PDFIn Surprised by Joy, C.S. Lewis introduced Lizzie Endicott as the first of two other blessings in his childhood, even before his introduction of Warnie. But apart from his abbreviated 136-word biography, very little is known about the nurse who introduced Lewis to faery tales. Based on the Lewis Family Papers, genealogical research, and personal interviews with Lizzie’s relatives, this article introduces Lizzie to the world of Lewismania. It also suggests various ways in which Lizzie influenced the man and the author that C.S. Lewis became, as well as the mythical worlds he created and Lewis’s anonymous tributes to her
