최근 10여년간 OLED는 급속한 기술발전으로 효율의 급속히 향상되어 100 lm 이상의 소자가 발표되고 있어, 디스플레이와 조명용 광원으로서의 응용 가능성이 증가하고 있다. 또한 에너지 및 환경의 중요성이 대두되며 효율은 점차 중요해 지고 있다. OLED의 효율 향상을 위해, 내부 양자효율이 25%인 형광 OLED를 대체할 수 있는, 인광 OLED가 대두되고 있다. 인광 OLED는 내부양자 효율이 형광 OLED에 비해 4배. 즉 100%의 내부양자 효율을 갖는다. 그러나 주로 사용되는 청색인광 물질인 FIrpic, Fir6 등의 수명이 짧다는 점과 색 좌표의 y값이 0.20 이상으로 하늘색 계열의 색특성을 보이는 등 여러 단점이 있다. 현제 이러한 단점을 보완하고자 하는 여러 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 다양한 호스트 물질을 사용, 도펀트 물질인 FIrpic을 도핑하여 청색인광의 효율을 높이고 수명을 증진시키고자 한다. 양극전극으로 RF 플라즈마 처리한 ITO를 사용하였으며, 진공증착방법을 사용하여 정공 주입층(HIL)으로 2-TNATA와 정공 수송층(HTL)으로 a-NPD을 증착하였으며, 전자 수송층(ETL)으로 Balq, 전자주입층(EIL)으로 LiF와 음극전극으로 Al을 증착하였다. 발광층(EML)에 사용되는 호스트 물질은 mCP, TCTA, CBP 등으로 다양화 하여 도펀트 물질인 FIrpic을 각각의 호스트 물질에 8 wt%으로 도핑하여 OLED 소자를 제작하였고, 전기 및 광학적 특성을 평가하였다.

The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of radiographic diagnosis of secondary carious lesions adjacent to composite filling materials with different radiopacity. The level of radiopacity that is most compatible with the radiographic diagnosis of secondary caries was studied in a two part experiment. In the first part, the radiopacity of 6 posterior composites CBP, CF, HM, LF, PQ, P50), enamel and dentin were measured by desitometer and 6 posterior composites divided into 3 groups based on their level of radiopacity compared with enamel and dentin. In the seocnd part, class II composite fillings with or without secondary caries were made in extracted premolar and radiographs of the teeth were examined by 10 dentists to diagnose simulated carious lesion. The following results were obtained: 1. The radiopacity of 6 posterior composites varied between 1.76(PQ) and 6.78(P50)mm Al equivalent. 2. For 4 composites the radiopacity exeeded that of an equal thickness of enamel, and for two the radiopacity was lower than that of dentin. 3. The detection of secondary caries was facillitated when the radiopacity of a composite resin was similar to or slightly greater than that of enamel.

Electricity Market in Korea can't provide locational price signal through energy price because energy market is CBP(Cost Based Pool) using uniform price. Generators don't want to locate in a densely populated load area(like the metropolitan area). Because they are paid more fixed cost in metropolitan area. This situation has loss and congestion occurred in power system. However energy market without price signal can't lead generator to the metropolitan. So, market participants should be provided price signal through the transmission price instead of energy price. This paper proposes transmission pricing method considering reliability cost in order to offer price signal. Also, it proposes the method to allocate the transmission cost to each transmission line user through a fair and a reasonable manner. The transmission price is decided by the reliability value of each line. If a transmission line of high reliability value is broke, users using that line will get a loss and a discomfort. So, it is fair that users using a transmission line of high reliability value pay more than the other users. Also, it is reasonable that a transmission line owner get paid more form users using that line.

The global pattern of growth-dependent gene expression in Streptococcus pneumoniae strains was evaluated using a high-density DNA microarray. Total RNAs obtained from an avirulent S. pneumoniae strain R6 and a virulent strain AMC96-6 were used to compare the expression patterns at seven time points (2.5, 3.5, 4.5, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5, and 8.0 h). The expression profile of strain R6 changed between log and stationary growth (the Log-Stat switch). There were clear differences between the growth-dependent gene expression profiles of the virulent and avirulent pneumococcal strains in 367 of 1,112 genes. Transcripts of genes associated with bacterial competence and capsular polysaccharide formation, as well as clpP and cbpA, were higher in the virulent strain. Our data suggest that late log or early stationary phase may be the most virulent phase of S. pneumoniae.

The hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) is a key regulator of hypoxic stress under physiological and pathological conditions. HIF-1α protein stability is tightly regulated by the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and autophagy in normoxia, hypoxia, and the tumor environment to mediate the hypoxic response. However, the mechanisms of how the UPS and autophagy interplay for HIF-1α proteostasis remain unclear. Here, we found a HIF-1α species propionylated at lysine (K) 709 by p300/CREB binding protein (CBP). HIF-1α stability and the choice of degradation pathway were affected by HIF-1α propionylation. K709-propionylation prevented HIF-1α from degradation through the UPS, while activated chaperon-mediated autophagy (CMA) induced the degradation of propionylated and nonpropionylated HIF-1α. CMA contributed to HIF-1α degradation in both normoxia and hypoxia. Furthermore, the pan-cancer analysis showed that CMA had a significant positive correlation with the hypoxic signatures, whereas SIRT1, responsible for K709-depropionylation correlated negatively with them. Altogether, our results revealed a novel mechanism of HIF-1α distribution into two different degradation pathways.

Organic light-emitting diodes (OLED) and polymer light emitting diodes (PLED) have been regarded as the candidate for the next generation light source and flat panel display. Currently, the most common OLED industrial fabrication technology used in producing real products utilizes a fine shadow mask during the thermal evaporation of small molecule materials. However, due to high potential including low cost, easy process and scalability, various researches about solution process are progressed. Since polymer has some disadvantages such as short lifetime and difficulty of purifying, small molecule OLED (SMOLED) can be a good alternative. In this work, we have demonstrated high efficient solution-processed OLED with small molecule. We use CBP (4,4'-N,N'-dicarbazolebiphenyl) as a host doped with green dye (Ir(ppy)3 (fac-tris(2-phenyl pyridine) iridium)). PBD (2-(4-biphenylyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole) and TPD (N,N'diphenyl-N,N'-Bis (3-methylphenyl)-[1,1-biphenyl]-4,4'-diamine) are employed as an electron transport material and a hole transport material. And TPBi (2,2',2''-(1,3,5-phenylene) tris (1-phenyl-1H-benzimidazole)) is used as an hole blocking layer for proper hole and electron balance. With adding evaporated TPBi layer, the current efficiency was very improved. Among various parameters, we observed the property of OLED device by changing the thickness of hole transporting layer and solvent which can dissolve organic material. We could make small molecule OLED device with finding proper conditions.

유기발광소자는 차세대 디스플레이 소자로서 빠른 응답 속도, 높은 색 재현성 및 매우 얇은 두께로 제작이 가능한 장점을 가지고 있어서 차세대 디스플레이 소자로서 많은 응용 가능성을 가지고 있다. 청색 유기발광소자는 적색 및 녹색의 유기발광소자의 발광 효율 특성보다 상대적으로 효율이 떨어지고, 색 순도가 낮으며 수명이 짧은 단점을 가지고 있어 소자 특성을 개선해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 청색 유기발광소자의 색 순도와 색 안정성 증진을 위하여 발광층을 2개의 층으로 나누어 15 nm 두께의 4,4'-Bis(2,2-diphenyl-ethen-1-yl)diphenyl (DPVBi) 형광 청색 호스트 물질에 4,4 '-Bis[4-(diphenylamino)stylyl]biphenyl (BDAVBi) 형광 청색 게스트 물질을 첨가하여 제 1 형광 발광층을 형성하고 15 nm 두께의 4,4'-Bis(carbazol-9-yl)biphenyl (CBP) 인광 호스트 물질에 bis(3,5-difluoro-2-(2-pyridyl)phenyl-(2-carboxypyridyl)iridium III (FIrpic) 인광 게스트 물질을 첨가한 제 2 인광 발광층으로 구성된 30 nm 두께의 하이브리드 발광층을 사용하여 청색 유기 발광소자를 제작하고 전기적 특성과 광학적 성질을 조사하였다. 하이브리드 발광층을 사용하여 제작된 유기발광소자는 20 mA/cm2의 전류 밀도에서 6.2 cd/A의 발광 효율을 나타내었고, 최대 밝기는 약 16,200 cd/m2로 측정 되었다. 하이브리드 발광층을 사용한 청색 유기발광소자는 전류의 흐름이 단일 발광층 유기발광소자에 비교하여 상대적으로 안정적인 전류 흐름을 가지며 발광층 내부에 더 많은 정공과 전자를 포획하여 엑시톤 형성 확률이 증가하여 발광효율과 밝기가 향상되었다. 하이브리드 발광층을 적용한 유기발광소자는 469 nm파장에서 형광 발광층의 주 전계발광 피크가 나타났고 그와 함께 인광 발광층의 부 전계발광 피크가 491 nm의 파장에서 관측되었다. 또한 전계발광 스펙트럼의 반치폭이 10 nm 감소하여 청색의 색 순도 증가에도 기여하였다. 하이브리드 발광층을 가진 청색 유기발광소자의 색 좌표는 전압 변화에 관계없이 일정한 값을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 형광과 인광 발광층으로 구성된 하이브리드 발광층 유기발광소자가 전기적으로 안정성을 가지며 발광 특성을 개선하고 안정적인 청색 유기 발광 디스플레이 소자로 사용 가능함을 나타내고 있다.

The properties of monomeric and dimeric salen-aluminum complexes, [salen(3,5-$^tBu)_2$Al(OR)], R = $OC_6H_4-p-C_6H_6$ (H1) and R = [salen(3,5-$^tBu$)AlOPh]C$(CH_3)_2$ (H2) (salen = N,N'-bis-(salicylidene)-ethylenediamine) as host layer materials in red phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PhOLEDs) were investigated. H1 and H2 exhibit high thermal stability with decomposition temperature of 330 and $370^{\circ}C$. DSC analyses showed that the complexes form amorphous glasses upon cooling of melt samples with glass transition temperatures of 112 and $172^{\circ}C$. The HOMO (ca. -5.2~-5.3 eV) and LUMO (ca. -2.3~-2.4 eV) levels with a triplet energy of ca. 1.92 eV suggest that H1 and H2 are suitable for a host material for red emitters. The PhOLED devices based on H1 and H2 doped with a red emitter, $Ir(btp)_2$(acac) (btp = bis(2-(2'-benzothienyl)-pyridinato-N,$C^3$; acac = acetylacetonate) were fabricated by vacuum-deposition and solution process, respectively. The device based on vacuum-deposited H1 host displays high device performances in terms of brightness, luminous and quantum efficiencies comparable to those of the device based on a CBP (4,4'-bis(Ncarbazolyl) biphenyl) host while the solution-processed device with H2 host shows poor performance.

Recently, colloidal core/shell type quantum dots lighting-emitting diodes (QDLEDs) have been extensively studied and developed for the future of optoelectronic applications. In the work, we fabricate an inverted CdSe/ZnS quantum dot (QD) based light-emitting diodes (QDLED)[1]. In order to reduce work function of indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode for inverted structure, a very thin (<10 nm) polyethylenimine ethoxylated (PEIE) is used as surface modifier[2] instead of conventional metal oxide electron injection layer. The PEIE layer substantially reduces the work function of ITO electrodes which is estimated to be 3.08 eV by ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (UPS). From transmission electron microscopy (TEM) study, CdSe/ZnS QDs are uniformly distributed and formed by a monolayer on PEIE layer. In this inverted QD LED, two kinds of hybrid organic materials, [poly (9,9-di-n-octyl-fluorene-alt-benzothiadiazolo)(F8BT) + poly(N,N'-bis (4-butylphenyl)-N,N'-bis(phenyl)benzidine (poly-TPD)] and [4,4'-N,N'-dicarbazole-biphenyl (CBP) + poly-TPD], were adopted as hole transport layer having high highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) level for improving hole transport ability. At a low-operating voltage of 8 V, the device emits orange and red spectral radiation with high brightness up to 2450 and 1420 cd/m2, and luminance efficacy of 1.4 cd/A and 0.89 cd/A, respectively, at 7 V applied bias. Also, the carrier transport mechanisms for the QD LEDs are described by using several models to fit the experimental I-V data.
