Abstract: The present invention relates to a compound, a display panel and a display device. The compound has a structure represented by Formula I. The compound takes a spiro structure as a non-conjugated connecting unit, and a boron-containing group as an electron-accepting group. A light-emitting compound obtained by taking the group as a building block has a narrower half-peak width and higher color purity. The boron-containing spirt structure is connected with an electron-donating group to obtain a bipolar compound, and as a thermal activation delay fluorescence material, the bipolar compound can be used a light-emitting layer material, particularly a doped material, and can also be used as a fluorescent host material or a phosphorescent host material. The compound provided herein can achieve low drive voltages and high luminescence efficiencies when applied to organic electroluminescent devices.

Abstract: Provided are a display panel and a display apparatus. The display panel includes an organic light-emitting device, which includes an anode, a cathode, a light-emitting layer between the anode and the cathode, and a capping layer located on a side of a light-exiting side electrode facing away from the light-emitting layer and containing an ultraviolet absorber for absorbing ultraviolet light. After absorbing the ultraviolet light, a molecular volume of the ultraviolet absorber is reduced. By adding the ultraviolet absorber, the organic material in the organic light-emitting device is protected from being damaged, and the service life of the organic light-emitting device is prolonged. Since the molecular volume of the ultraviolet absorber is reduced after absorbing ultraviolet light, the refractive index of the capping layer is increased, improving the light extraction efficiency and the light-emitting efficiency of the organic light-emitting device, and also prolonging the service life.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for performing parallel histogram calculation with application to palette table derivation are disclosed. An encoder calculates a first histogram for a first portion of pixel component value bits of a block of pixels.

The encoder selects a second number of the highest pixel count bins from the second histogram. A third histogram is calculated from the concatenation of bits assigned to the first and second number of bins, and the highest pixel count bins are selected from the third histogram. A palette table is derived based on these highest pixel count bins selected from the third histogram, and the block of pixels is encoded using the palette table.

The phosphor comprises an inorganic compound which at least comprises an element M, an element A, an element D, and an element R; the element M is one or two elements selected from the group consisting of Lu, La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Y, Tb, and Gd and must comprise Lu; the element A is Si and/or Ge; the element D is one or two elements selected from the group consisting of O, N, and F and must comprise N; the element R is Ce and/or Dy. Since the ionic radius of Lu3+ is smaller than that of La3+, when the inorganic compound comprises element Lu, the original ligand site would be contracted. In order to reduce lattice distortion due to the ligand site contraction, the adjacent ligand site expands, and the photochromic property is adjusted.
