  • Patent number: 8212269
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an organic light emitting device (OLED) including a first electrode, a second electrode, at least one layer of organic material arranged between the first electrode and the second electrode, and a dielectric capping layer arranged on the second electrode opposite to the first electrode, wherein the capping layer comprises an outer surface, opposite to the second electrode, for emission of light generated in the at least one layer of organic material. The capping layer has the effect that a reflectance of external light is reduced whereas outcoupling of the light generated in the at least one layer of organic material through the capping layer is increased.

  • Publication number: 20070092800
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are an ionic conductor including a proton conductor, a process for production thereof, and an electrochemical device (such as fuel cell) with said ionic conductor, said ionic conductor being superior in ionic conductivity, water resistance, and film forming properties. The ionic conductor is formed from a polymer in which carbon clusters having ion dissociating functional groups are bonded to each other through connecting groups. The polymer is less water-soluble and more chemically stable than a derivative composed solely of carbon clusters; therefore, it permits many ion dissociating functional group to be introduced thereinto. Moreover, if ion dissociating functional groups are introduced into also the connecting group, it is possible to prevent the concentration of ion dissociating functional groups from decreasing as the result of polymerization. The polymer can be easily synthesized by simple condensation, substitution, and hydrolysis.
