The Impact of Customer Profile and Customer Participation on Customer Relationship Management Performance
There are two main sources of knowledge about customers: customer profile and customer participation. The companies use information technologies to analyze the customer profiles and extract tacit knowledge about customer via customer participation. The result of this experiment demonstrates that the use of customer profile improves customersā perception on goods quality and increase the effectiveness of Customer Relationship Management (CRM). In addition, customer participation can improve customersā perception on goods quality and enhance performance of CRM through perceived participation. The result indicates that the customer profiles and customer participation are two crucial factors for companies to maintain customer relationship
Efficient hybrid organic-inorganic light emitting diodes with self-assembled dipole molecule deposited metal oxides
We investigate the effect of self-assembled dipole molecules (SADMs) on ZnO surface in hybrid organic-inorganic polymeric light-emitting diodes (HyPLEDs). Despite the SADM being extremely thin, the magnitude and orientation of SADM dipole moment effectively influenced the work function of the ZnO. As a consequence, the charge injection barrier between the conduction band of the ZnO and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital of poly(9,9(')-dioctylfluorene)-co-benzothiadiazole could be efficiently controlled resulting that electron injection efficiency is remarkably enhanced. The HyPLEDs modified with a negative dipolar SADM exhibited enhanced device performances, which correspond to approximately a fourfold compared to those of unmodified HyPLEDs.open442
Supersensitive sensing of quantum reservoirs via breaking antisymmetric coupling
We investigate the utilization of a single generalized dephasing qubit for
sensing a quantum reservoir, where the antisymmetric coupling between the qubit
and its reservoir is broken. It is found that in addition to the decay factor
encoding channel, the antisymmetric coupling breaking gives rise to another
phase factor encoding channel. We introduce an optimal measurement for the
generalized dephasing qubit which enables the practical measurement precision
to reach the theoretical ultimate precision quantified by the quantum
signal-to-noise ratio (QSNR). As an example, the generalized dephasing qubit is
employed to estimate the -wave scattering length of an atomic Bose-Einstein
condensate. It is found that the phase-induced QSNR caused by the antisymmetric
coupling breaking is at least two orders of magnitude higher than the
decay-induced QSNR at the millisecond timescale and the optimal relative error
can achieve a scaling with being the encoding time in
long-term encoding. Our work opens a way for supersensitive sensing of quantum
reservoirs
Obsessive-Compulsive Behavior Disappearing after Left Capsular Genu Infarction
This case report describes a 74-year-old woman with obsessive-compulsive behaviors that disappeared following a left capsular genu infarction. The patient's capsular genu infarction likely resulted in thalamocortical disconnection in the cortico-basal ganglia-thalamocortical loop, which may have caused the disappearance of her obsessive-compulsive symptoms. The fact that anterior capsulotomy has been demonstrated to be effective for treating refractory obsessive-compulsive disorder further supports this hypothesis
High performance polymer light-emitting diodes with N-type metal oxide/conjugated polyelectrolyte hybrid charge transport layers
We present an interfacial engineering strategy employing n-type-metal-oxide/conjugated-polyelectrolyte (CPE) hybrid charge-transport layers for highly efficient polymer light-emitting diodes (PLEDs). The hybrid metal-oxide/CPE layer facilitates electron-injection, while blocking hole-transport, and thereby maximizes electron-hole recombination within the emitting layer. A series of metal-oxide/CPE combinations were tested in inverted PLEDs (FTO/metal-oxide/CPF8BT/MoO3/Au). Specifically, HfO2/CPE double layer achieved an electroluminescence (EL) efficiency of up to 25.8 cd/A (@ 6.4 V, one of the highest values reported for fluorescent PLEDs).open11
