    AbstractPhosphorescent white organic light-emitting diodes (PhWOLEDs) based on blue (Firpic) and yellow [(t-bt)2Ir(acac)] phosphorescent emitters with various doping concentration were reported. A PhWOLED with high performance characteristics has been obtained when the doping concentration for Firpic and (t-bt) 2Ir (acac) is 8 wt% and at 6 wt%, respectively. The Commission Internationale del’Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of the optimal PhWOLED is (0.333, 0.416) at 10V. The high performance of the optimized PhWOLED is attributed to effective host-guest energy transfer and efficient exciton recombination combining with suppressed exciton-quenching process in the emitting layers

    Custodial Symmetry Violation in Scalar Extensions of the Standard Model

    The new measurement of the W boson mass from the CDF collaboration shows a significant tension with the Standard Model prediction, which evidences violation of custodial symmetry in the scalar sector. We study the scalar extensions of the Standard Model, which can be categorized into two classes, scalar sector with custodial symmetry (Georgi-Machacek model and its generalizations) and scalar sector without custodial symmetry, and explore how these extensions fit to the electroweak precision data and the CDF new mWm_W . The favored oblique parameters are coming from either the large mass splitting in the multiplet via the loop contribution or the large vacuum expectation value which breaks custodial symmetry at the tree level. In particular, we find that O(100)\mathcal{O}(100) GeV new particles are allowed in the scalar extension scenarios.Comment: 24 pages, 4 figure

    Multi-party quantum private comparison of size relationship with two third parties based on d-dimensional Bell states

    Full text link
    In this paper, we put forward a multi-party quantum private comparison (MQPC) protocol with two semi-honest third parties (TPs) by adopting d-dimensional Bell states, which can judge the size relationship of private integers from more than two users within one execution of protocol. Each TP is permitted to misbehave on her own but cannot collude with others. In the proposed MQPC protocol, TPs are only required to apply d-dimensional single-particle measurements rather than d-dimensional Bell state measurements. There are no quantum entanglement swapping and unitary operations required in the proposed MQPC protocol. The security analysis validates that the proposed MQPC protocol can resist both the outside attacks and the participant attacks. The proposed MQPC protocol is adaptive for the case that users want to compare the size relationship of their private integers under the control of two supervisors. Furthermore, the proposed MQPC protocol can be used in the strange user environment, because there are not any communication and pre-shared key between each pair of users.Comment: 15 pages, 1 figure, 1 tabl

    SPeC: A Soft Prompt-Based Calibration on Mitigating Performance Variability in Clinical Notes Summarization

    Full text link
    Electronic health records (EHRs) store an extensive array of patient information, encompassing medical histories, diagnoses, treatments, and test outcomes. These records are crucial for enabling healthcare providers to make well-informed decisions regarding patient care. Summarizing clinical notes further assists healthcare professionals in pinpointing potential health risks and making better-informed decisions. This process contributes to reducing errors and enhancing patient outcomes by ensuring providers have access to the most pertinent and current patient data. Recent research has shown that incorporating prompts with large language models (LLMs) substantially boosts the efficacy of summarization tasks. However, we show that this approach also leads to increased output variance, resulting in notably divergent outputs even when prompts share similar meanings. To tackle this challenge, we introduce a model-agnostic Soft Prompt-Based Calibration (SPeC) pipeline that employs soft prompts to diminish variance while preserving the advantages of prompt-based summarization. Experimental findings on multiple clinical note tasks and LLMs indicate that our method not only bolsters performance but also effectively curbs variance for various LLMs, providing a more uniform and dependable solution for summarizing vital medical information
