Do financial inclusion and income inequality matter for human capital? Evidence from sub-Saharan economies

open access: yesBorsa Istanbul Review, 2023
Sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries are struggling as they have a lower level of human capital than developed countries. These economies are also trying to develop their financial sector with improved products and services.

Accurate measurement of the piezoelectric coefficient of thin films by eliminating the substrate bending effect using spatial scanning laser vibrometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
One of the major difficulties in measuring the piezoelectric coefficient d(33,f) for thin films is the elimination of the contribution from substrate bending.

Lead Free Multilayer Piezoelectric Actuators by Economically New Approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2020
The replacement of lead zirconate titanate ceramics (PZTs), with a lead-oxide (PbO)-free alternative is the subject of intense investigation worldwide. In this research, a cheap reliable methodology for the fabrication of multilayers (MLs) of lead-free ...

Effect of sintering on the piezoelectric properties and microstructure of lead free (Ba1-xCaxZr0.1Ti0.9O3) (x=0.065) ceramics [PDF]

open access: yesScience of Sintering, 2022
In this work, pellet samples of barium calcium zirconate titanate (Ba1-xCaxZr0.1Ti0.9O3, x=0.065) were prepared using solid state reaction route with double sintering. The structural and piezoelectric properties were measured.

Correlation between electric-field-induced phase transition and piezoelectricity in lead zirconate titanate films [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We observed that electric field induces phase transition from tetragonal to rhombohedral in polycrystalline morphotropic lead zirconate titanate (PZT) films, as reported in 2011 for bulk PZT.

Enhancement of Piezoelectricity by Novel Poling Method of the Rare‐Earth Modified BiFeO3–BaTiO3 Lead‐Free Ceramics

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, 2023
In piezoceramics, the Curie temperature (TC) and piezoelectric coefficient (d33) are often inversely proportional, so it is very difficult to optimize high piezoelectricity and TC simultaneously.

Study of orientation effect on nanoscale polarization in BaTiO3 thin films using piezoresponse force microscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We have investigated the effect of texture on in-plane (IPP) and out- of plane (OPP) polarizations of pulsed-laser-deposited BaTiO3 thin films grown on Pt and La0.5Sr0.5CoO3 (LSCO) buffered Pt electrodes.

Labor Share in National Income: Implications in the Baltic Countries

open access: yesReview of Economic Perspectives, 2017
Despite the fact that stability of labor share in national income is a key foundation in macroeconomic models, scientists acknowledge, that in the last three decades it has been declining around the world.
