Quantum dots, which have many advantages, require patterning technology because of their colloidal status. Various patterning method for colloidal QD have been proposed using drop-casting, mist coating, transfer printing, inkjet printing. Drop casting method can fabricate fast but having weakness in large area process. Mist coating method might be made a monolayer deposition with high accuracy but difficulty in high resolution. Transfer printing method is possible to highest resolution patterning in technologies but having an ink contamination issue. However, ink-jet printing technology is emerging interest for the fabrication of QLEDs because of advantages such as high-resolution pattern possibility, fast processability and tiny material usage by drop-on-demand process. To fabricate high performance QLEDs using inkjet-printing technology, there are some challenges. First is morphology issue which goal is achieving a uniform film deposition against coffee ring effect and bad roughness. Second is a printing failure, which considering accurate positioning of the ink droplet against the angular deviation of the droplet leaving nozzle of the inkjet cartridge. This droplet deflection may be caused by nozzle clogging, machine tremor and error occurrence in inkjet-printing machine, and it leads to two problem such as mis-aiming and overflow. Third is a jeattability for forming a stable drop at nozzle. This is determined by rheological parameters such as viscosity, inertial force, and surface tension. Final is solvent limits which are not dissolving the underlayer, preventing QD aggregation and toxicity to human. There have been studies related to enhancement of inkjet printed QLED by using solvent mixture to form uniform film or using hydrophobic walls to prevent from mis-aiming and overflow, but the reported performance of inkjet-printed QLED is still low. For the practical use of inkjet-printed QLEDs, it is prerequisite to resolve the morphology issue against coffee-ring effect and the printing failure in the relation with the performance of inkjet printed device. In this study, we improved the EQE and CE of inkjet-printed QLED device using hydrophobic walls and QD-polymer composite ink. Hydrophobic walls are used making the droplet positing precise within the bank and it is evaluated a photolithographic property and the resistivity on the printing failure of this material. QD-polymer composite ink can increase viscosity of ink and induce the additional polymer Marangoni effect. When using hydrophobic walls, printed QD ink with the angular deviation is positioned well in the bank and prevent from the overflow out of emission area. Well defined ink induces the pixel uniformity of devices and resulted QLED exhibit the maximum luminance of 5300 cd m-2 and the external quantum efficiency of 0.11 %. Despite of these relatively low performance, it shows the resistivity of printing failure, so I believe it can be further improved through elaborated optimization. Also, when PMMA is added in the QD ink, the QD–polymer composite ink can reduce the coffee-ring effect and form a uniform thin film. Pile-up at the bank wall is also reduced by additional polymer Marangoni effect. In addition, PMMA of suitable polymer chain length can reduce the surface roughness, thereby improving the morphological properties of the thin film. The resulting inkjet-printed QLED emit the highest luminance of 73360 cd m-2 and the external quantum efficiency of 2.8 %, which are conspicuously higher than that of the inkjet-printed QLED without polymer additives. These results in this thesis show the impact of printing accuracy and uniform film formation, and suggest these methods will promise the high performance of inkjet printed QLEDsChapter 1 Introduction 0 1.1 Colloidal Quantum Dots 0 1.2 Fabrication Technology of QLEDs 5 1.3 Key Issues for Inkjet-printed QLED Performance 7 1.4 Outline of Thesis 9 Chapter 2.

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
