Sinclair – Gipson 1931-1932 Correspondence
No full text{"value":"1931 January 12 from P.J. Sinclair (Moshi) to Lawrence H. Gipson (Lehigh Univ.) (Typed letter indicating that Sinclair has received letters from Gipson and Professor Tomlinson who took a trip with Sinclair on the Serengetti Plains. Sinclair says he will send a manuscript to Gipson regarding Beamish which may be of interest to Gipson regarding matters of the British empire.) Scanned 1931 May 29 from P.J. Sinclair (Moshi) to Gipson (Lehigh Univ.) (three page typed letter relates Sinclair\u27s point of view regarding the troubles in East Africa and acknowledge Gipson\u27s interest in the crisis. Sinclair describes life in Tanganyika hunting on the veldt, and planting pineapples in the Hawaiian manner through paper.) Scanned 1931 October 27 from P.J. Sinclair (Moshi) to Gipson (typed letter acknowledges letter of September 15 remarking on the situation in England exceeding expectations referring to Beamish\u27s forecasting a crash. East Africa\u27s affairs are in the background but the efforts made seem to have good effect. Sinclair reports that Adm. Beamish is retiring and hope is that H.H. Beamish be nominated to replace him. Sinclair refers to "the old Manuscript" and its author – most of what Sinclair knows about it is from his grandmother.) Scanned 1932 April 11 from P.J. Sinclair (Moshi) to Gipson (handwritten letter "In view of events in England I did not send the papers relating to Beamish and De la Mothe as I first intended and I hope for some culminative event to round them off, when you would then have had a full perspective view point which would have enabled you to judge of the matter as a whole. However the papers I now send will hold some interest for you I think as they are by no means dry in themselves but hold the interest in a way which is only possible when dealing with the personal element. Your "Studies in Colonial Connecticut Taxation," is intensely interesting and somewhat parallels our case in degree, and I could not stop until I had read every word of it. Thank you very much for sending it I greatly appreciate it.\u27) Scanned (Unrelated handwritten jottings but dates mentioned are interesting "Excise 1785-1786, Phila. 1786 on brown folded paper possibly in Gipson\u27s handwriting) 1932 April 11 from P.J. Sinclair to Gipson (handwritten letter "The paper herein For a mosaic of actual history being the minor facts which make up the Tapestry and the threads of which are rarely seen. As I mentioned before it would be dangerous and not right to expose them to publicity at present, but I understand well your interest as a scholar and historian in the true facts and therefore I leave them to you with confidence.")

High responsivity and response speed single-layer mixed-cation lead mixed-halide perovskite photodetectors based on nanogap electrodes manufactured on large-area rigid and flexible substrates
No full textMixed-cation lead mixed-halide perovskites are employed as the photoactive material in single-layer solution-processed photodetectors fabricated with coplanar asymmetric nanogap Al–Au and indium tin oxide–Al electrodes. The nanogap electrodes, bearing an interelectrode distance of ≈10 nm, are patterned via adhesion lithography, a simple, low-cost, and high-throughput technique. Different electrode shapes and sizes are demonstrated on glass and flexible plastic substrates, effectively engineering the device architecture, and, along with perovskite film and material optimization, paving the way toward devices with tunable operational characteristics. The optimized coplanar nanogap junction perovskite photodetectors show responsivities up to 33 A W−1, specific detectivity on the order of 1011 Jones, and response times below 260 ns, while retaining a low dark current (0.3 nA) under −2 V reverse bias. These values outperform the vast majority of perovskite photodetectors reported so far, while avoiding the complicated fabrication steps involved in conventional multilayer device structures. This work highlights the promising potential of the proposed asymmetric nanogap electrode architecture for application in the field of flexible optoelectronics.</p
