The dovish turnaround: Germany's social benefit reform and job findings

Journal of Policy Analysis and Management, EarlyView.
Abstract On the labor markets, recent decades were characterized by structural supply‐side reforms in many countries. Following its hawkish reforms from the 2000s, Germany has recently made a dovish turnaround. Conditions in basic income support for unemployed became more generous, combined with a focus on qualification and development.

Fabrication of amorphous lamellar freestanding poly(N‐dodecyl acrylamide) films and their mechanical properties

Polymer International, EarlyView.
A freestanding film of completely uniaxially oriented amorphous lamellae was produced. The film exhibited enhanced tensile strength with increasing orientation of the lamella. Abstract An amorphous lamellar freestanding film composed of poly(N‐dodecyl acrylamide) (pDDA) was prepared by annealing a micrometer‐thick film under humid conditions (humid ...

Robust β‐myrcene block copolymer elastomeric vitrimers

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Myrcene‐based vitrimeric elastomers were compared: statistical (poly(styrene‐stat‐myrcene‐stat‐AAEMA)] versus ‘hard–soft’ diblock (poly(styrene)‐block‐poly(myrcene‐co‐AAEMA)). The diblock's ability to anchor the glassy poly(styrene) blocks in a self‐assembled microstructure was effective – leading to four times higher tensile stress and ten times ...

Actuation and Charging Mechanisms of Thin PEDOT:PSS Films Probed by Electrochemical AFM and Impedance Spectroscopy

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
The actuation of thin films of PEDOT:PSS has been characterized by electrochemical AFM. A relative decrease in the actuation behavior in dependence of the film thickness has been observed. The underlying mechanisms have been elucidated by chronoamperometry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The decreasing relative actuation is attributed to an

Adhesion Forces of Dextran on Dental Enamel as a Function of Contact Time and pH Value

physica status solidi (a), EarlyView.
Dextran exhibits sawtooth‐shaped retraction curves on dental enamel, indicating multiple interaction points. Adhesion forces increase with contact time (0.35 nN at 10 s to >1.5 nN at 120 s) and are independent of pH (pH 4.5–13). Comparisons with other surfaces show that adhesion on enamel is lower but statistically insignificant at the 0.05 level ...

Fabrication of Bulk Acoustic Wave Resonator with Multilayer Graphene Electrode

physica status solidi (b), EarlyView.
Herein, multilayer graphene structures are grown on the silicon substrate for the fabrication of the bulk acoustic wave resonator device. The result reveals that both methods can be used to replace the Bragg reflector. Two bulk acoustic wave resonator (BAW) devices with multilayer graphene as bottom electrodes are fabricated using the chemical vapor ...

Atomically Precise Nanoclusters as Co‐Catalysts for Light‐Activated Microswimmer Motility

Small, EarlyView.
For the first time, atomically precise gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) are used as motility catalysts for active matter microswimmers. The nanoscale precision and controlled optical activity of AuNCs are leveraged, achieving a nearly fivefold increase in displacement under ultraviolet light compared to prototypical TiO2 microswimmers.
