  • Patent number: 10505061
    Abstract: A wavelength-converting encapsulant composition is provided, which includes a first organic material capable of absorbing ultraviolet light and converting absorbed light to longer wavelength light; and a second organic material capable of absorbing light with a wavelength longer than that of the light absorbed by the first organic material and converting absorbed light to longer wavelength light, wherein the maximum emission wavelength ?1em of the first organic material and the maximum excitation wavelength ?2ex of the second organic material satisfy the relationship of formula (1): ?1em?60??2ex (nm), and which has high durability, is advantageous in terms of cost and suitable for use on solar cells, and can improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of solar cells by converting light in a wavelength region not contributable to power generation to light in another wavelength region contributable to power generation.

  • Patent number: 8822453
    Abstract: The present invention provides a novel diazepine compound that blocks the IKur current or the Kv1.5 channel potently and more selectively than other K+ channels. The present invention relates to a diazepine compound represented by General Formula (1) or a salt thereof, wherein R1, R2, R3, and R4 are each independently hydrogen, lower alkyl, cyclo lower alkyl or lower alkoxy lower alkyl; R2 and R3 may be linked to form lower alkylene; A1 is lower alkylene optionally substituted with one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of hydroxyl and oxo; Y1 and Y2 are each independently —N? or —CH?; and R5 is group represented by wherein R6 and R7 are each independently hydrogen or organic group; R6 and R7 may be linked to form a ring together with the neighboring group —XA—N—XB—; XA and XB are each independently a bond, lower alkylene, etc.
