  • Publication number: 20240172465
    Abstract: A light-emitting device with high emission efficiency, reliability, and color purity is to be provided. The light-emitting device includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and an organic compound layer. The organic compound layer is between the first electrode and the second electrode and includes a light-emitting layer. The light-emitting layer includes a first substance and a second substance. The second substance causes light emission from a doublet excited state. The doublet excited level of the second substance is lower than the singlet excited level of the first substance and is higher than the triplet excited level of the first substance. The second substance emits light.

  • Patent number: 5917688
    Abstract: A centrifugal apparatus is disclosed which includes a rotor, a motor, a speed signal generator, including a disc having alternate reflective and non-reflective stripes, for generating a rotating speed signal of the rotor, a microprocessor (mpu), an analog processing circuit. The rotating speed of the rotor is judged by both the microprocessor and the analog processing circuit including a F/V converter and a voltage comparator independently, so that an overspeed condition is prevented. The mpu may further detect a motor rotating speed and compare the variation in the rotating speed signal of the rotor and the rotating speed of the motor. If the difference exceeds a reference, the mpu stops the rotor. Another disc of which reflective strip is replaced by a non reflective strip may be provided to the rotor and a pulse compensation circuit for compensating the lack of the pulse in the rotating speed signal is also provided. This type of the disc is provided to distinguish the types of these rotors.

  • Patent number: 5731681
    Abstract: A power control apparatus for controlling power supplied to an electric motor rotating a rotor employed in a centrifuge is provided. The power control apparatus includes first and second inverters and a smoothing capacitor disposed between the first and second inverters. In a motor power mode, the first inverter charges the smoothing capacitor with power supplied by an AC power supply, while the second inverter charges, in a motor braking mode, the smoothing capacitor with power regenerated by the motor during a braking operation for returning the regenerated power back to the AC power supply through the first inverter. An reactor is arranged between the AC power supply and the first inverter for reducing harmonic components contained in the current supplied from or back to the AC power supply.
