Publication number: 20240124494Abstract: Described are multi-resonance-thermally-activated delay-fluorescence compounds containing (i) a polycyclic aromatic/heteroaromatic ligand in which a plurality aromatic/heteroaromatic rings are linked by boron and nitrogen atoms and (ii) an N-heterocyclic carbene ligand, with both ligands coordinated to a metal atom/ion that has a high spin-orbit coupling. The use of the high spin-orbit coupling of metals and/or metal ions facilitates the intersystem crossing and/or reversed intersystem crossing processes of MR-TADF emitters, thereby largely accelerating the rate of TADF and substantially shortening the lifetime of deleterious triplet excitons. The MR-TADF emitters can be used to fabricate blue to green emitting OLEDs.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: Chi-Ming Che, Siyuan Cai, Tsz-Lung Lam, Gang Cheng

Publication number: 20240104149Abstract: A computing system is provided, including one or more processors configured to provide a social media platform configured to serve a content feed to a user. The processor is further configured to generate user content interaction information by detecting user interactions with the content feed and provide a recommendation engine that selects content items for display in the content feed based on the generated user content interaction information. The processor is further configured to receive a refresh request to refresh the recommendation engine and refresh the recommendation engine at least in part by masking or resetting the user content interaction information upon receiving the refresh request. After the refresh, the processor is further configured to generate, via the recommendation engine, post-refresh content items based on the masked or reset user content interaction information, and transmit the post-refresh content items to the user device for display in the content feed.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2022Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Jordan Furlong, Han Cheng, Ciaran Farley, Alan Yee, Isha Mukesh Shah, Riley Gish, Amanda Hanna, Jinyi Lu, Wenrong Zhang, Yiming Chen, Tsz Ling Christina Leung

Patent number: 7788168Abstract: A method of dynamically negotiating a transaction can include determining a potential transaction between participants according to transaction parameters stored within a transaction parameter data store. The transaction parameters can be associated with each of the participants and can specify acceptable transaction terms. The potential transactions can be evaluated according to a mutual benefit conferred on the participants by the potential transactions according to the transaction parameters. The potential transactions can be ordered according to decreasing mutual benefit; and, the potential transaction having the greatest mutual benefit can be presented to the participants.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2008Date of Patent: August 31, 2010Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Gregory P.
