Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a plurality of host materials and organic electroluminescent devices comprising the same. The present disclosure may provide a plurality of host materials having a composition favorable to thermal denaturation due to a low deposition temperature, while improving hole properties and electronic properties of HOMO and LUMO, by comprising separate compounds represented by formulas 1 and 2 into a light-emitting layer. By comprising the plurality of host materials of the present disclosure, it is possible to provide an organic electroluminescent device having a lower driving voltage, higher luminous efficiency and/or longer lifetime.

Abstract: A system and method for providing an optimal-fuel-efficiency driving pattern for a vehicle according to a travel route, which are capable of providing guide information to a driver in real time such that a vehicle travels according to an optimal driving pattern matching road conditions of the travel route, weather and vehicle information when the driver drives the vehicle in a state of setting the travel route to a specific destination. The vehicle infotainment system collects traveling information of a pre-registered vehicle and customer data at a predetermined period, analyzes, stores and manages a driving pattern of the vehicle and fuel efficiency information with respect to the travel route, transmits the optimal-fuel-efficiency driving pattern data to the vehicle infotainment system when a pre-registered user requests the optimal-fuel-efficiency driving pattern data for the specific route.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a prompt gamma-ray detection apparatus for analyzing chemical materials using femtosecond pulse laser-induced neutrons, which can be effectively used in the nondestructive inspection of various materials, such as metals, coal, cement, radioactive materials and the like as well as explosives and chemical materials, and which can provide better measurement results for the analysis of basic materials, and a method of measuring prompt gamma-rays using the apparatus. The prompt gamma-ray detection apparatus is advantageous because it can non-destructively analyze the elements in a chemical sample using a femtosecond pulse laser-induced neutron generator that solves the problems of an atomic reactor for research or a radioactive isotope as a neutron radiation source.

Abstract: A biodegradable polyester is formed by carrying out esterification and polycondensation with a carboxylic acid monomer group comprising at least one aliphatic dicarboxylic acid containing 2 to 14 carbon atoms and at least one aromatic or alicyclic carboxylic acid, and at least one glycol in the presence of a composite catalyst comprising a titanium compound, a zinc compound, an antimony compound and a phosphorous compound. The composite catalyst significantly improves the reaction rate of polyester polymerization as well as increases the production amounts of the polyester, as compared with conventional catalysts. The polyester is high in molecular weight, excellent in thermal and mechanical properties by virtue of the introduction of the aromatic or alicyclic carboxylic acid or its derivative, in addition to showing good biodegradability. This polyester can replace preexisting, expensive aliphatic polyesters.
