Abstract

A power-generating method of generating power from a power-generating element. An electric polarization state in the power-generating element is changed by phase transition. First, an electric field is applied to the power-generating element to change a phase transition temperature of the power-generating element by an electric-field application unit for applying the electric field to the power-generating element without changing a temperature of the power-generating element. Then, the electric polarization state in the power-generating element is changed by application of the electric field and control of the application, so that the power from the power-generating element is generated.

Abstract

A polycyclic aromatic compound comprising a substructure represented by formula (3A) and a substructure represented by formula (3B) provides high external quantum efficiency when used in a light-emitting layer of an organic EL element, for example, together with a high T1 compound having a lowest excited triplet energy level that is at least 0.01 eV higher than the lowest excited triplet energy level of the polycyclic aromatic compound. The A ring, B ring, D ring, C ring, and E ring are each independently substitutable aryl rings or substitutable heteroaryl rings. The three * positions in formula (3B) are respectively bonded to three consecutive ring-forming atoms in the aryl ring or heteroaryl ring of the B ring or the D ring. Y is B, n is 0 or 1, X is >N-R (where R is an aryl or the like), and X in formula (3B) is >O or >S.

Abstract

A comfort analysis device, according to the present invention, comprises a display unit, a first control unit, an input unit, and a cognitive construct building unit. The display unit displays a survey for extracting users' degree of comfort with regard to an environment and environmental elements which are causes of the degree of comfort. The first control unit controls the display unit so as to display the survey multiple times during a survey period. The input unit receives, from users, responses input to each of the surveys displayed multiple times. The cognitive construct building unit uses the responses to each of the surveys displayed multiple times to extract the degree of comfort and environmental elements in time series and build a cognitive construct model indicating a cognitive construct relating to users' comfort.
