‘Where are the adults?’: Troubling child‐activism and children's political participation

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Children's political participation is a well‐established theme in childhood studies. In this article we offer an original account of child activism that takes into account the entangled and emergent aspect of children as activists. We begin with a historical and a conceptual review, noting the importance of mid‐20th century developments such ...

Flexible white thermally activated delayed fluorescence polymer with alkyl spacer and side‐chain encapsulation for efficient solution‐processed white organic light‐emitting diodes

FlexMat, EarlyView.
A “gemstone‐necklace” FASCE strategy synthesizes single‐component white polymers (PTF‐Qx) by alternating rigid TADF units with flexible alkyl chains. The non‐doped rigid device achieves a high EQE of 15.66% with stable white emission (CIE: 0.36, 0.46).
