Lapachol is a naphthoquinone that was first isolated by E. Paterno from Tabebuia avellanedae (Bignoniaceae) in 1882.A wide spectrum of therapeutic activities have been attributed to lapachol or its derivatives viz., anti-abscess, anti-ulcer, antileishmanial, anticarcinomic, antiedemic,

Abstract Methylammonium (MA)‐free perovskite solar cells have the potential for better thermal stability than their MA‐containing counterparts. However, efficiency of MA‐free lags behind due to inferior bulk quality. In this work, 4‐methylphenethylammonium chloride (4M‐PEACl) is added into a precursor, which results in greatly enhanced The crystal grains are significantly enlarged, and defects suppressed by factor four upon incorporation an optimal concentration 4M‐PEACl.

Abstract Recent studies have demonstrated that in thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials, efficient reverse intersystem crossing occurs from nonradiative triplet exited states to radiative singlet excited due a small singlet–triplet energy gap. This significantly influences exciton annihilation processes and external quantum efficiency roll‐off TADF based organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs). In this work, comprehensive quenching model is developed for system determine...

Chemical investigation of the fungal strain Microdiplodia sp. isolated from shrub Lycium intricatum led to isolation four new compounds: a hexahydroxanthone (2), 2,3-dihydrochroman-4-one (3), 7-oxoxanthone derivative (4), and 1,4-oxazepan-7-one (5). The relative configurations compounds were determined by intensive NMR investigations, notably NOESY experiments at different temperatures. absolute well-known metabolite diversonol (1) other xanthone derivatives (3, 4) established means TDDFT...

Abstract Electrical pumping of organic semiconductor devices involves charge injection, transport, device on/off dynamics, exciton formation and annihilation processes. A comprehensive model analysing those entwined processes together is most helpful in determining the dominating loss pathways. In this paper, we report experimental theoretical results Super Yellow (Poly( p -phenylene vinylene) co-polymer) light emitting diodes operating at high current density under voltage nanosecond...

Triplet excitons have been identified as the major obstacle to realisation of organic laser diodes, accumulation triplet leads significant losses under continuous wave (CW) operation and/or electrical excitation. Here, we report design and synthesis a solid-state quencher, well in-depth studies its dispersion into solution processable bis-stilbene-based dye. By blending dye with 20 wt% negligible effects on ASE thresholds, but complete suppression singlet-triplet annihilation (STA) 20-fold...

Abstract Significant progress has recently been made in the field of organic solid-state lasers. However, achieving lasing action from semiconductors under electrical excitation remains challenging due to losses introduced by triplet excitons. Here, we report experimental and theoretical results that confirm a positive contribution excitons for electrically-driven via bimolecular triplet-triplet upconversion (TTU) mechanism. We study model fluorescent material,...

This study demonstrates the transformative impact of incorporating poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-trifluoroethylene) P(VDF-TRFE) as an additive in hole transport layer (HTL) 2,2′,7,7′-Tetrakis[N,N-di(4-methoxyphenyl)amino]-9,9′-spirobifluorene (Spiro-OMeTAD). The forms resilient coordination bonds with 4-tert-butylpyridine (TBP) and lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide additives, which mitigates TBP evaporation improves Spiro-OMeTAD film quality. In addition, we observed improvements...
