Interface Effects in Ultrathin Silicon on Insulator Films
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work establishes a systematic framework to discriminate how bulk and interface phenomena affect charge transport in ultrathin P‐doped silicon‐on‐insulator (SOI) films. For Si films below 15 nm, electrical characterization demonstrates that interface states drive charge transport, shifting the metal‐insulator transition (MIT) critical dopant ...

Do bystanders react to bribery?
, 2021 Do individuals consider bribery as an acceptable behavior? We use a newly-designed game to study if—and under which conditions—bystanders are willing to express disapproval for bribing behavior through costly punishment. We manipulate two key dimensions:

Approximation and Hardness of Shift-Bribery [PDF]
Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2019 In the SHIFT-BRIBERY problem we are given an election, a preferred candidate, and the costs of shifting this preferred candidate up the voters’ preference orders. The goal is to find such a set of shifts that ensures that the preferred candidate wins the election. We give the first polynomial-time approximation scheme for the case of positional scoring

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Clusterization‐triggered emission is realized in dilute aqueous solution by introducing imine linkages into cellulose‐based luminophores. Imine functionalization creates O/N‐rich, hydrogen‐bonded clustered microenvironments that stabilize emissive states and restrict molecular motions. Luminescence is tunable by amine type and multiplicity.

Algorithms for destructive shift bribery [PDF]
Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems, 2016 We study the complexity of Destructive Shift Bribery. In this problem, we are given an election with a set of candidates and a set of voters (ranking the candidates from best to worst, each), a despised candidate d (typically, one of the current winners), a budget B, and prices for shifting d down in voters' rankings.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Innovative hybrid nanoassemblies installed with ferrocene, D‐α‐tocopherol succinate, and phloretin exploit the metabolic vulnerability of triple‐negative breast cancer under glucose starvation. By blocking glucose uptake, this single nanoplatform simultaneously orchestrates apoptosis, disulfidptosis, and ferroptosis to achieve synergistic and ...

Reducing bribery for public services delivered to citizens [PDF]
, 2015 The literature on corruption tends to focus on grand corruption for contracts and licenses worth large sums of money. However, 1.6 billion people annually have to pay a petty bribe to get public services.

Corporate disclosures on curbing foreign bribery and the UK Bribery Act 2012: Evidence from UK companies [PDF]
, 2014 This study aims to investigate whether and how United Kingdom (UK)-based companies have changed their disclosures on curbing foreign bribery in response to the UK Bribery Act 2010 and whether such disclosure changes substantively reflect real allegations
