Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.Organic light emitting transistors (OLETs) combine, in the same device, the function of an electrical switch with the capability of generating light under appropriate bias conditions. 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

    A JOURNEY INTO MATHEMATICAL JURIMETRICS

    Abstract: Mathematics is an art of giving the same name to different things (Henri Poincare). Properties of commonly occurring physical and abstract spaces are often generalized using Metric Spaces. This is by building some Mathematical framework into them. This work is one in a series of papers derived from the doctoral dissertation which was based on the formalization of Metric Topological Space in the milieu of Legal Jurisprudence; a Metric Topological Space (called MTS) in which the points are bodies of evidence with the concept of nearness of points defining the evidence clearly stipulated, thus determining an earliest systematic and Mathematical approach to Jurimetrics in the recent times. Keywords: Mathematical framework, Jurimetrics, Metric Topological Space (called MTS),. Title: A JOURNEY INTO MATHEMATICAL JURIMETRICS Author: Professor Nnamuchi O. E., Professor C.S.

    Session 3-A: Longing in the Work of C.S. Lewis

    C.S. Lewis: Sixty Years of Letters: A Thematic Overview of His Passions - Jessica Shaver Renshaw Rather than speaking about C.S. Lewis, we will let Jack speak about himself through his letters: what he loved, such as books, seasons/weather, walking tours, bathing, Ireland, animals, convalescence, Joy, and writing; what he loathed: writing letters, Americans, cities, TV, newspapers, movies, modern novels/poetry/theology; what he feared; what he didn\u27t understand; and what he regretted, as well as his descriptions of what he looked like, what he did well, what he did badly. I will force myself with Great Difficulty (because of all the choice bits I will have to leave out) to limit these tastes of his sixty-year three-volume, 3,600 page, 9-1/2 pound correspondence to what can be savored in twenty minutes! \u27Parascriptural\u27 Revelation in C.S. Lewis - J.C. Calhoun In the theology of C.S. Lewis, God is rather verbose and unrestrained in the manners and means of communication. God must be understood as the speaking God; anything less will not do Him justice. The few extant works about Lewis\u27s theology of revelation focus on scripture, and though this is an important topic, one cannot understand it properly without first understanding how God speaks in general. This paper explicates his epistemology as a foundation, and then under the rubric of basic communication theory (author, text, recipient, re-texting), presents eleven \u27parascriptural\u27 paths through which God speaks as mentioned in Lewis\u27s writings. The term \u27parascriptural\u27 - \u27para\u27 in the sense of \u27beside\u27 or \u27alongside of\u27 - is used instead of \u27General Revelation\u27 because the traditional division between General and Special Revelation forces categories upon Lewis that are alien to his thought. After presenting these eleven paths, they are categorized and related back to his epistemology. The paper then finishes as it should, with tantalizing questions about what this means for understanding Lewis and why it is important in our own lives. Moderator: Robert Moore-Jumonvill
