  • Publication number: 20050019605
    Abstract: A device is provided, having an anode, a cathode, and a first organic layer disposed between the anode and the cathode. The first organic layer produces phosphorescent emission when a voltage is applied between the anode and the cathode. An organic enhancement layer disposed between the first organic layer and the cathode is also provided. The organic enhancement layer is in direct contact with the first organic layer. The organic enhancement layer may comprise a material of structure (I): The material of structure I is thermally stable and is a high energy band gap material.

  • Publication number: 20020007340
    Abstract: A Partner Relationship Management system (“PRMS”) accessible for sellers and buyers located remotely, whereby the buyers' access privileges are based on their relationship with the sellers. The PRMS comprising a server connected to the Internet and a pricing configurator which includes at least, a buyer profile module residing on the server and storing information on a plurality of buyers, logistics data and a price converter. The information on each buyer includes at least a delivery destination, and a pricing factor. The pricing factor is unique to each buyer. The pricing configurator converts an origin offer price, such as a free-on-board price, to a delivered price, such as a cost-insurance-freight price by considering the information of the buyer profiles and the logistics data.
