Top Emission Organic Light Emitting Diodes Fabricated on Stainless Steel Foil by Fuh-Shyang Juang, Yu-Hsin Tuan, Hong-Kai Chen, Min-Chieh Lin, Hung-Lun Lin, Jun-Lin Huang

“…This study presents the fabrication and optimization of top-emitting organic light-emitting diodes (TEOLEDs) on stainless steel (SS) substrates, aiming to address challenges in surface roughness, hole injection efficiency, and light extraction. Due to the dual-sided conductivity of SS foil, a solution-type organic material (TOC 100) was spin-coated as an insulating and planarization layer, reducing the surface roughness from 8.61 nm to 0.46 nm, as measured by atomic force microscopy (AFM). …”

Reduction in Carbon Dioxide Emission and Energy Saving Obtained by Renovation of Building Envelope of Existing Residential Buildings by Rui Chen, Xiaoping Feng, Chengjing Li, Huapeng Chen

“…Then, setting the static payback period as the evaluation index, we applied the orthogonal test method to determine the economic efficiency of different combinations of schemes. Finally, we identified the optimal combination for conserving energy and decreasing CO2 emissions as 120-mm-thick expanded polystyrene insulating board for both the exterior wall and the roof, and 5-mm-thick triple-silver low-emissivity glass and 5-mm-thick normal glass separated by 12 mm of air for the exterior windows, which resulted in a cooling capacity, heating consumption, total building energy consumption, static payback period, and dynamic payback period of 28.37 kWh m−2 a−1, 4.22 kWh m−2 a−1, 32.59 kWh m−2 a−1, 13.76 years, and 22.84 years, respectively, as well as an annual reduction in CO2, sulfur dioxide (SO2), and nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions of 86.01 tons, 2.59 tons, and 1.29 tons, respectively.…”
