Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Neat films of organic dyes are an interesting technological platform for solar cells and photodetectors. Recently, the conventional biphasic bulk‐heterojunction paradigm for photoinduced charge separation was challenged by the observation that charge carriers can be photogenerated in single‐component materials. A comprehensive experimental and

Substantiation of Payment Conditions for Products
Наука и техника, 2004 The paper proposes a model that presupposes granting more favorable payment (discount) conditions with the purpose to expedite payments for products. Dependence for calculation of discount rate has been deduced on the basis of information about an actual

A Proposal for a New Prescriptive Discounting Scheme: The Intergenerational Discount Rate [PDF]
Cost-benefit analyses require comparing costs and benefits that occur at different points in time. Doing so, however, creates conflicts between short-term considerations — a discounting scheme has to be consistent with observed behaviours — and long-term

Stochastic Optimal Growth when the Discount Rate Vanishes [PDF]
It has been shown that long-run optimality of the limit of discounted optima when the discount rate vanishes is implied by a condition on the value function of the optimal program.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Metal‐free carbon catalysts enable the sustainable synthesis of hydrogen peroxide via two‐electron oxygen reduction; however, active site complexity continues to hinder reliable interpretation. This review critiques correlation‐based approaches and highlights the importance of orthogonal experimental designs, standardized catalyst passports ...

The role of the discount rate for emission pathways and negative emissions
Environmental Research Letters, 2019 The importance of the discount rate in cost-benefit analysis of long term problems, such as climate change, has been widely acknowledged. However, the choice of the discount rate is hardly discussed when translating policy targets—such as 1.5 °C and 2 °C–
