Pulsed CH<Subscript>3</Subscript>OH Terahertz Laser Emission Pumped by a TEA CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> Laser

A simple terahertz (THz) cavity and a TEA CO₂ laser for the optically pumped THz emission is studied experimentally. To obtain high peak power of pump laser, pressure ratios of gas mixture in the cavity of the TEA CO₂ laser are discussed. When CH₃OH are pumped by the 9P(16) and 9P(36) CO₂ laser lines, the generation of terahertz radiation with energy as high as 353 μJ and 307 μJ are obtained, respectively. The corresponding photon conversion efficiencies are 0.705% and 0.29%. Meanwhile, higher peak power of pump laser effectively improves the photon conversion efficiency. And the optimum THz laser pressure increases with narrower pulse width of pump laser.     

High‐Performance All‐Polymer White‐Light‐Emitting Diodes Using Polyfluorene Containing Phosphonate Groups as an Efficient Electron‐Injection Layer

We report an efficient non‐doped all‐polymer polymer white‐light‐emitting diode (PWLED) with a fluorescent three‐color, white single polymer as an emissive layer, an ethanol‐soluble phosphonate‐functionalized polyfluorene (PF‐EP) as an electron‐injection/electron‐transport layer, and LiF/Al as a cathode, respectively. The all‐polymer PWLED achieves a peak external quantum efficiency of 6.7%, a forward viewing luminous efficiency of 15.4 cd A^?1 and a power efficiency of 11.4 lm W^?1, respectively, at a brightness of 347 cd m^?2 with Commission Internationale d’Eclairage coordinates of (0.37, 0.42) and color rendering index of 85, which is the best results among the non‐doped PWLEDs. Moreover, this kind of PWLED not only shows excellent color stability, but also achieves high brightness at low voltages. The brightness reaches 1000, 10000, and 46830 cd m^?2 at voltages of 4.5, 5.4, and 7.5 V, respectively. The significant enhancement of white‐single‐polymer‐based PWLEDs with PF‐EP/LiF/Al to replace for the commonly used Ca/Al cathode is attributed to the more efficient electron injection at PF‐EP/LiF/Al interfaces, and the coordinated protecting effect of PF‐EP from diffusion of Al atoms into the emissive layer and exciton‐quenching near cathode interfaces. The developed highly efficient non‐doped all‐polymer PWLEDs are well suitable for solution‐processing technology and provide a huge potential of low‐cost large‐area manufacturing for PWLEDs.     

Self‐Assembled Graphene–Enzyme Hierarchical Nanostructures for Electrochemical Biosensing

The self‐assembly of sodium dodecyl benzene sulphonate (SDBS) functionalized graphene sheets (GSs) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) by electrostatic attraction into novel hierarchical nanostructures in aqueous solution is reported. Data from scanning electron microscopy, high‐resolution transmission electron microscopy, and X‐ray diffraction demonstrate that the HRP–GSs bionanocomposites feature ordered hierarchical nanostructures with well‐dispersed HRP intercalated between the GSs. UV‐vis and infrared spectra indicate the native structure of HRP is maintained after the assembly, implying good biocompatibility of SDBS‐functionalized GSs. Furthermore, the HRP–GSs composites are utilized for the fabrication of enzyme electrodes (HRP–GSs electrodes). Electrochemical measurements reveal that the resulting HRP–GSs electrodes display high electrocatalytic activity to H₂O₂ with high sensitivity, wide linear range, low detection limit, and fast amperometric response. These desirable electrochemical performances are attributed to excellent biocompatibility and superb electron transport efficiency of GSs as well as high HRP loading and synergistic catalytic effect of the HRP–GSs bionanocomposites toward H₂O₂. As graphene can be readily non‐covalently functionalized by “designer” aromatic molecules with different electrostatic properties, the proposed self‐assembly strategy affords a facile and effective platform for the assembly of various biomolecules into hierarchically ordered bionanocomposites in biosensing and biocatalytic applications.     

Synthesis,Morphology, and Properties of Poly(3‐hexylthiophene)‐block‐Poly(vinylphenyl oxadiazole) Donor–Acceptor Rod–Coil Block Copolymers and Their Memory Device Applications

Novel donor–acceptor rod–coil diblock copolymers of regioregular poly(3‐hexylthiophene) ( P3HT )‐block‐poly(2‐phenyl‐5‐(4‐vinylphenyl)‐1,3,4‐oxadiaz‐ole) ( POXD ) are successfully synthesized by the combination of a modified Grignard metathesis reaction ( GRIM ) and atom transfer radical polymerization ( ATRP ). The effects of the block ratios of the P3HT donor and POXD pendant acceptor blocks on the morphology, field effect transistor mobility, and memory device characteristics are explored. The TEM, SAXS, WAXS, and AFM results suggest that the coil block fraction significantly affects the chain packing of the P3HT block and depresses its crystallinity. The optical absorption spectra indicate that the intramolecular charge transfer between the main chain P3HT donor and the side chain POXD acceptor is relatively weak and the level of order of P3HT chains is reduced by the incorporation of the POXD acceptor. The field effect transistor (FET) hole mobility of the system exhibits a similar trend on the optical properties, which are also decreased with the reduced ordered P3HT crystallinity. The low‐lying highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy level (–6.08 eV) of POXD is employed as charge trap for the electrical switching memory devices. P3HT‐ b ‐POXD exhibits a non‐volatile bistable memory or insulator behavior depending on the P3HT / POXD block ratio and the resulting morphology. The ITO/ P3HT₄₄ ‐b‐ POXD₁₈ /Al memory device shows a non‐volatile switching characteristic with negative differential resistance (NDR) effect due to the charge trapped POXD block. These experimental results provide the new strategies for the design of donor‐acceptor rod‐coil block copolymers for controlling morphology and physical properties as well as advanced memory device applications.     

Multicast capacity and delay trade‐offs in ad hoc networks with random iid mobility model

In this paper, multicast capacity and delay trade‐offs of mobile ad hoc networks are considered under random independently and identically distributed (iid) mobility model. Compared with unicast, multicast can reduce the overall network load by a factor with high probability (whp) in static random ad hoc networks, where k is the number of destination nodes in a multicast session. So we firstly discuss whether the law still holds in mobile random ad hoc networks, and in this case what delay should be tolerated. Through the relation between average retransmissions and multicast capacity, we prove that order of multicast capacity is not achievable whp, and delay for multicast capacity is , where is the number of ad hoc nodes in the whole networks, and and c is a positive constant. Then achievable throughput whp is considered. The nearest neighbor transmission strategy is introduced by Grossglauser and Tse to achieve throughput which is so far the highest achievable unicast capacity. So the multicast capacity of mobile ad hoc networks under this strategy is studied. The analysis shows that under any multicast routing scheme based on the nearest neighbor transmission strategy, the upper bound on multicast capacity is whp. Then we propose a multicast routing and scheduling scheme by which mobile ad hoc networks can achieve throughput whp, and must tolerate total network delay.

A 220 GHz dynamic frequency divider in 0.5 μm InP DHBT technology

A high performance 3 inch 0.5 μ m InP DHBT technology with three interconnecting layers has been developed. The epitaxial layer structure and geometry parameters of the device were carefully studied to get the required performances. The 0.5×5 μm² InP DHBTs demonstrated f_t=350 GHz, f_max=532 GHz and BV_CEO=4.8 V, which were modeled using Agilent-HBT large signal model. As a benchmark circuit, a dynamic frequency divider operating from 110 to 220 GHz has been designed, fabricated and measured with this technology. The ultra-high-speed 0.5 μm InP DHBT technology offers a combination of ultra-high-speed and high breakdown voltage, which makes it an ideal candidate for next generation 100 GHz+mixed signal integrated circuits.
