On behalf of the Kyoto Symposium Organization, welcome to our annual Kyoto Prize Symposium. Once again and now for 19 years, San Diego has the exclusive honor of presenting the Kyoto Prize laureates and their lifetime achievements to a North American audience.

The Kyoto Prize Symposium illuminates the vision of the Inamori Foundation, and the 35th Kyoto Prize laureates – Dr. Ching Tang, Dr. James Gunn and Mrs. Ariane Mnouchkine – are outstanding examples of what human beings can accomplish with new ideas and the desire to make the world a better place. We pay tribute to the Inamori Foundation for recognizing 111 extraordinary individuals over the years who have made tremendous contributions to society through technology, science and the arts.

This benefit gala officially opens the Symposium. Our theme is: The Kyoto Prize: Celebrating Outstanding Lifetime Achievement. Tonight, in addition to celebrating our laureates, we will award major Kyoto Prize Symposium Scholarships to six college-bound high school seniors from San Diego and Tijuana. We believe these scholarships will inspire our students to fulfill their potential by remembering the mission of the Kyoto Prize, the Inamori Foundation, and its founder Dr. Kazuo Inamori, to work toward the greater good of society.

We are all extremely honored that the Inamori Foundation chose San Diego to be the home of this important event. To the Foundation and to those who have given of their time and resources – our co-host universities, our sponsors, our community leaders, and all volunteers – we extend our deep gratitude and the gratitude of the community. We especially thank Dr. Kazuo Inamori, without whom there would be no Kyoto Prize. In your program, you will find a reprint of a portion of Dr. Inamori’s original message upon creating the foundation in 1984.

We salute and welcome the head of the Inamori Foundation delegation to San Diego this week – Ms. Shinobu Inamori-Kanazawa. As President of the Foundation, she has taken on a most vital role in the success of the Kyoto Prize – in Kyoto, San Diego and now also in Oxford. Along with our other Inamori Foundation friends from Kyoto, we again thank all participating in this week’s symposium. Thank you!

To all our guests at the 2020 Kyoto Prize Symposium events, we hope the laureates’ life work and presentations captivate and inspire you!

Sincerely,

Ray McKewon Chairman, Kyoto Symposium Organization The Philosophy of the Kyoto Prize An excerpt of the inaugural message from Dr. Kazuo Inamori

I have two major reasons for establishing the Kyoto Prize. First, in keeping with my belief that we on Earth have no higher calling than to serve the greater good of humankind and society, I wish in some way to repay the global community that has sustained and nurtured me all these years. Second, I would like to redress the relative lack of formal recognition for highly dedicated but unsung researchers. At the very least, I hope to honor people who have made extraordinary contributions to science, civilization, and spirituality, and thereby motivate them and others like them to reach still greater heights. I am convinced that the future of humanity can be assured only through a balance of scientific progress and spiritual depth. Though today’s technology-based civilization is advancing rapidly, there is a deplorable lag in inquiry into our spiritual nature. I believe that the world is composed of mutual dichotomies — pluses and minuses, such as the yin and the yang. Only through the awareness and nourishment of both sides of these dualisms can we achieve a complete and stable equilibrium. The progression or expansion of any one aspect alone without the other will inevitably upset the natural balance of the universe and contribute to human suffering. It is my sincere hope that the Kyoto Prize may serve to encourage the cultivation of both our scientific and spiritual sides. At the same time, nothing would be more gratifying than if it provided some small impetus for the construction of a new philosophical paradigm.

- 8 - The Kyoto Prize The Kyoto Prize is an international award created by Japan’s non-profit Inamori Foundation to honor those who have contributed significantly to humankind’s scientific, cultural and spiritual development. Consisting of academic honors, a gold medal and a cash gift of 100 million yen (over $900,000), it is Japan’s highest private award for global achievement. Dr. Kazuo Inamori, who created the Kyoto Prize in 1984, is an international humanitarian and founder of many enterprises — including Corporation and KDDI Corporation. Inamori established the Kyoto Prize for two reasons: first, to support his belief that there is no higher calling than to work for the greater good of all humankind; and second, to recognize those dedicated yet unsung people who improve the world through their research, science and art. Through the Kyoto Prize, Dr. Inamori hopes both to recognize the efforts and contributions to society made by these extraordinary people, and to stimulate them and others to still greater heights. The Kyoto Prize is awarded on November 10 each year in Kyoto, Japan. Since 1985, it has been presented to 111 individuals and one group — a body of laureates ranging from scientists, engineers and researchers to philosophers, painters, sculptors, musicians and film directors.

Kyoto Prize Symposium, Gala and Scholarships The Kyoto Prize Symposium is a three-day celebration of the lives and works of those receiving the prestigious Kyoto Prize. The Symposium provides an opportunity for an international audience to learn about the latest Kyoto Prize laureates while reflecting on the common quest for peace and harmony among nations. The Kyoto Prize Scholarships, administered through The San Diego Foundation and Fundación Internacional de la Comunidad, are awarded to San Diego and Tijuana-area high school students who have been inspired to pursue a college education in one of the three annual Kyoto Prize categories: Advanced Technology, Basic Sciences, or Arts and Philosophy. Proceeds from the Symposium’s annual Gala fund the Kyoto Prize Scholarships and related educational opportunities. Other Symposium events include lectures by the latest Kyoto Prize laureates with contributions by other esteemed leaders in the laureates’ fields.

Inamori Foundation The Inamori Foundation was established in Kyoto, Japan, through the generosity of Dr. Kazuo Inamori, a global entrepreneur and humanitarian. The Foundation takes an active role in promoting international understanding by honoring and supporting those who contribute greatly to scientific progress, cultural advancement, and human betterment. The Foundation’s activities have their spiritual basis in the founder’s lifelong belief that humankind’s future can be assured only when there is a balance between our scientific development and our spiritual depth.

- 15 - A message from Dr. Ching W. Tang Evolution of OLED Display Technology

y first experience with organic light emitting diodes (OLED) took place at the Kodak Research MLaboratories. Hired in 1975 as a research chemist, I began my career with an assignment to develop efficient and low-cost solar cells for light to electricity conversion. Specifically, I was asked to look into using organic dyes and pigments as alternative photovoltaic materials to inorganic semiconductors such as silicon. After spending nearly three years on the project, I was still nowhere close to the device performance needed for practical use. Frustrated, I was about to move on to other projects when I saw the light, literally, from a poorly constructed solar cell when it was driven with excessive current. Thus, I found myself with a new project having the opposite focus—converting electricity to light. Little did I know that this discovery would lead to a premier display technology decades later.

In 1987, almost a decade after the discovery, I published a paper in Applied Physics Letters (co- authored with Steve Van Slyke) describing the bi-layer structure, material composition, and device performance of an OLED device, referred to as an organic electroluminescent diode in the paper. It turned out that the bi-layer structure held the key to achieving a high electricity to light conversion efficiency. Also known as an organic heterojunction, its utility had first been realized in my prior work on organic solar cells. With the bi-layer structure, charge generation (in solar cells) or recombination (in OLED) is greatly enhanced by confining these processes, via excitons, at its interface. In the OLED case, the efficiency gain is the result of maximizing the radiative recombination at the bi-layer interface while minimizing the non-radiative recombination at the electrodes. This milestone paper ushered in a worldwide effort to develop OLED for display applications.

Display technologies have progressed rapidly over the last few decades, advancing from cathode ray tubes to flat-panel displays. Among various flat-panel displays, liquid crystal display has been the leading technology—until the emergence of high-performance OLED displays in recent years. With its numerous attributes, OLED has laid claim to the best display technology ever developed. In this presentation, I will trace the evolution of OLED from its discovery to its commercialization from my personal perspective.

“Understanding the Universe and the Things That Live In It Through Astronomical Surveys” Dr. James E. Gunn Astrophysicist Eugene Higgins Professor Emeritus, Astrophysical Sciences, Princeton University 2019 Kyoto Prize Laureate

- 19 - A message from Dr. James E. Gunn Understanding the Universe and the Things That Live In It Through Astronomical Surveys

stronomers have been charting the heavens for thousands of years, recording the positions of Astars and planets and estimating their brightnesses. Before our understanding of the physics of astronomical objects, these charts, maps, and catalogs were mostly of religious, navigational, and calendar interest, though the very accurate catalogs of positions recorded by Tycho allowed the geometry of the solar system to be worked out by Kepler, and allowed the orbits to be explained by Newton with his theory of gravitation. Physics had come to astronomy.

Today astronomy is all physics and chemistry of astronomical objects (and still quite a lot of wonder, in case “you” wondered). We do research of two sorts, mainly. On the one hand, working on the specific properties of one or a few objects to understand in detail how they work as individuals, or, on the other hand, gathering data and studying whole populations of objects or the physical structure of the whole universe through large surveys. This is the subject which has been the primary emphasis of most of my career and which I will discuss in my lecture.

The universe is populated by , which are made of stars and gas and dust and a collection of weird objects which stars leave behind when they die. These aggregate into groups and clusters, which are the largest coherent structures in the universe. There are typically a hundred billion stars in a like our own, and the observable universe holds of order a hundred billion galaxies. These numbers are too vast to allow study of each individual object of any kind, and surveys are designed to allow us to study their statistical properties, thus enabling us to extend the study of many representative individuals to the whole population by doing a census of the kinds of objects in the population. The Sloan Digital Sky Survey which I originated and served as Project Scientist for many years obtained such a study of the nearby universe.

Light travels at finite speed, so studying a population of very distant (and faint) objects allow us to see what objects in the universe were like in the distant past. Surveys underway now with large telescopes, including the Japanese Subaru Telescope, will enable us to open this history book on the evolution and development of the universe.

- 23 - A Message from Mrs. Ariane Mnouchkine Did You Really Know to Whom You Were Giving This Prize?

We are such stuff as dreams are made on… William Shakespeare, The Tempest

hat is the fabric that the winner of such a majestic award as the Kyoto Prize is made of? Who Wmade me? From which dreams of which countless dreamers did I come? Who created me? Unintentionally, unknowingly. Without ever knowing me. Preceding me by many centuries or even several millennia. Who, long before me and much more than I, deserved this award? How can we remember these countless respectable winners, glorious or anonymous? How can we invoke them? How can we name them and do justice to them?

With what milk, with what bread was I fed? And above all, who milked this milk, who kneaded this bread? On what land has this wheat grown? Who harvested it? Under what sun? Which country has protected me and which countries have cultivated me?

Who are the women and men who have created me without even imagining their mutual existence? To whom do I owe for being myself? Who should I thank and who should I curse?

What multitudinous footsteps should I walk in to express my gratitude, my frustration and sometimes my fright? All these paths led to my imperfect little self but, as is the case with every human being, they form a planetary network.

These are the paths I will have to track down, to study and interpret in order to write this speech. This speech is highly intimidating for me. At the same time, I must admit, the frightening obligation has the virtue of pushing me towards this investigation and recognition.

By awarding it to me, to how many hundreds, maybe thousands, of women and men, have you, in truth, awarded this benevolent and sumptuous prize?

To whom do I owe all this? These privileges, this loving environment, this comfort, this luxury, this beauty, this refinement, this respect: to whom do I owe them? To whose and how many’s sweat, courage, heroism, sacrifice, devotion, constancy, obstinacy, genius and enlightenment?

How many fights and deaths did it take for me, a woman, to live free, to freely serve theatre and to receive such an honour?
