This image captures a rustic trail leading through a grassy hillside. The trail is constructed from weathered wooden planks and logs, creating a natural and uneven path. The surrounding grass is tall and lush, with a mix of green and golden hues. In the background, the hill rises gently, covered in dense evergreen trees. At the top of the hill, there is a small wooden cabin with a blue roof, adding a touch of human presence to the natural scene. The sky above is partly cloudy, with patches of b…

Sky-blue Solution-processed TADF and Hyperfluorescent OLEDs via a High-Work-Function PEDOT:PSS:PFI Hole Injection Layer

arxiv.org/abs/2607.18474 arxiv.org/pdf/2607.18474 arxiv.org/html/2607.18474
arXiv:2607.18474v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Solution-processed OLEDs offer a scalable route to large-area devices, but achieving competitive efficiency in multilayer stacks remains a challenge due to difficulties in hole injection as well as solvent orthogonality between layers. A hole injection layer (HIL) based on a blend of PEDOT:PSS and a perfluorinated ionomer (PFI) addresses both challenges simultaneously: surface segregation of PFI during film drying creates a high-work-function interface improving hole injection into high-ionisation potential host materials, while the insolubility of the blend in aromatic solvents prevents intermixing with subsequently deposited layers. Using this HIL with a solution-processed mCPCN:SpiroAC-TRZ emissive layer, sky-blue OLEDs with a peak external quantum efficiency (EQEmax) of 21.7%, an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 20.2% at 100 cd m-2, a peak luminance of 29,000 cd m-2 and a full width at half maximum (FWHM) emission linewidth of 69 nm are demonstrated. The PFI-based HIL approach is extended to the photochemically stable TADF emitter 5TCzBN (EQEmax 18.4%, FWHM 73 nm) and to sensitized / hyperfluorescent OLEDs incorporating the multi-resonance TADF terminal emitters n-DABNA (EQEmax 22.8%, FWHM 26 nm) and the dendrimer TCzBN-BMes (EQEmax 20.4%, FWHM 29 nm). These results establish the PEDOT:PSS:PFI HIL as a broadly compatible platform for high-performance solution-processed TADF OLEDs.

from a bridge earlier:

looking along the steel wall of a rough Victorian steel plate girder bridge. thick steel plate twisted slightly away from blue brick wall revealing some of the overhead electric thingies on the railway that runs beneath the bridge. there is wild stuff growing between a crash barrier and the steel plate.
view from the bridge at dusk purple sky fading to orange on the horizon. railway beneath. small transmitter in the distance.
zoomed into the transmitter sticking out above trees. 2 wooden electricity poles leaning badly to the right.
some graffiti on the deep green steel plate behind crash barrier. lots of layers of tags, dried rusty water marks running over the graffiti. abstract looking. wild plants brown and gone to seed. in front of the steel plate.

A slightly blurry side-on photo of a white and tabby cat with his back half sitting/lying on a pine dining table, and his front legs dangling down over an orange dining chair. I love my dining chairs and congratulate myself on my fabulous taste three time a day 😄 In the background are a vertical black speaker, a floor lamp and a plant. This room is next in line for painting and a general facelift.
A different white and tabby cat lies snuggled in a grey fleece radiator bed.
Sparky, of the dining table dangling pose, now sits on a window sill looking at the camera and looking rather fine. The window has a fabric mesh over it to stop the cats walking on the outside window sill, as our sitting room is upstairs. Through the mesh you can see blue sky and a mature beech tree. I love the views from upstairs.

I've just reserved the new Miss Marple from the library, Murder at the Grand Alpine Hotel by Lucy Foley. I've been disappointed by some books that take a dead author's characters, but have read a couple of crackers recently so am going to give this one a whirl. I can also recommend Longbourn by Jo Baker, P&P below stairs and really well done, and The Golden Hours by Louisa Young, EJH's niece and a continuation of their own family history, The Cazalet Chronicles

A stylised image showing a red and white cable car agaunst a blue sky, above mountains with snowy caps. LUCY FOLEY is in white caps at the top, the Agatha Christie's signature, the the title MURDER AT THE GRAND ALPINE HOTEL in caps of mixed sizr and colour, red to gold.
A wonderfully 50s-60s pop art style cover to Louisa Young's The Golden Hours, reflecting the time it's set. Three vertical strips each featuring a linotype style image of a woman (three different women) facing a little differently, against background shades of orange, blue and yellow. The title is in large black caps bottom left, the author's name next to it in much smalletnred caps.
A painting style paperback cover of Longbourn by Jo Baker, showing a well-dressed woman in a cream dress, with her back to us, facing green panelling. To the right in the shadows a young servant girl faces us, looking away and down. She's holding a bucket. The title is in white caps, the author underneath in much smaller white caps.

So we got our jackets, did our errands with our little bike trailer - and were lucky because it didn't even rain 💪

Firework with red white and blue streaks that are a little irregular, maybe because the exposure was long and the camera didn't quite cancel out the motion of my hands

The upper half of the frame is mostly filled by red white and blue streaks radiating out from the center (but starting halfway out) under a dark blue sky:  behind and below that are streaks and puffs of smoke and under that the silhouettes of trees, a big cloud of smokes and a few motion streaked lights.

A mountain lake with deep teal colored water during the last light of the day. A patch of reeds in the bottom-right corner. The other side of the lake is a densely forested ridge, tall mountains behind it, their tops catching a little bit of the alpenglow warm sunset light. Clear blue sky.

This is one of three #books I acquired yesterday. The other two are still in the car, I'm in my nightie and it's raining, so they're staying put for now 😄

A book bought from the tombola stall at a Heritage Open Day event at Hartlebury Castle. I didn't want to take my chance with a tombola ticket so I offered £1 to buy it instead of 50p to gamble and they wisely accepted 😄

The Constant Gardener by le Carré. Beautiful pale blue sky-evoking paperback cover with three randomly placed bees in flight. Author and title in gold capitals, short blurb in smaller black letters.

oh wow #footpathfriday again! And I almost missed it. This is from a bike and hike last year which I really really enjoyed.
Afterwards I was quite surprised about the distance and height that I covered. But it was worth it.

This image captures a scenic mountain trail surrounded by lush greenery. The trail, made of dirt and small rocks, winds through a landscape filled with vibrant green shrubs, grasses, and evergreen trees. Scattered rocks and boulders are visible along the path, adding texture to the terrain. The sky above is clear and blue, suggesting a sunny day. The dense vegetation on either side of the trail creates a natural corridor, leading the viewer's eye deeper into the scene.

The left one has a nine-square grid pattern in mustard, pink, purple, and blue frames, each holding a different colored paint blob.

I've always loved this funny little yellow house, hidden in a courtyard at the University of Edinburgh's School of Geography. You can see Portobello and the sea to the left of the building. Wonderful 18th century original case and sash windows (they slide up and down using rope, a counterweight and a pulley!)

Had a few walks around Merchant City, hung out at my daughter's flat, rummaged in Waterstones and came away £30 poorer and three books richer, the others went on a distillery tour, and at …

What a morning and long day it was last week!

Maintenance/repair works on the hut continued at 08:30, taking lots more pictures to document, interviewin…

Photo of a high alpine landscape with three different valleys in bright hazy morning light. In the bottom left corner, still in the shade, a meandering creek is flowing down the rocky hanging valley formed by its former glacier. A small talus field in the sun, next to the path. Further in the distance much larger, deeper valleys, their floor occluded and only the upper sections illuminated. Glaciated peaks along the whole horizon, partially blanked out by intense bright light. Clear blue sky.
A small footpath, surrounded by talus fields, leading into the distance. Behind, on the other side of the invisible valley, some of the immense, imposing, glaciated peaks of the Kreuzkamm, specifically Talleitspitze (3406m) and Kreuzspitze (3455m). Not much is remaining of the formerly grand Eisferner in between these peaks. Clear blue sky.
