ABSTRACT Optical satellite communications provide high‐data rates with compact and power efficient payloads that can solve the bottlenecks of RF technologies. Photonic integrated circuits have the potential to reduce the cost, size, weight, and power consumption of satellite laser communications terminals, by integrating all the required photonic ...

Pandemic Effects: COVID‐19 and the Crisis of Development in the Middle East
ABSTRACT This article explores the effects of the COVID‐19 pandemic on socio‐economic development and political mobilization in the Middle East. It argues that beyond its direct public health implications, the pandemic is serving to intensify the extreme differences in wealth and power that have characterized the region for many years.

Update on the German and Australasian Optical Ground Station Networks
ABSTRACT Networks of ground stations designed to transmit and receive at visible and infra‐red wavelengths through the atmosphere offer an opportunity to provide on‐demand, high‐bandwidth, secure communications with spacecraft in Earth orbit and beyond. This work describes the operation and activities of current free space optical communications (FSOC)

Tailored Growth of Transition Metal Dichalcogenides’ Monolayers by Chemical Vapor Deposition
Here, results on the tailored growth of various 2D semiconductors’ monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides are presented using chemical vapor deposition techniques. Basic electronic, photonic and optoelectronic properties of the grown quantum materials are studied by high‐resolution microscopy and spectroscopy techniques and are analyzed for ...

Non‐standard Employment and Rent‐sharing
In this paper, we analyse how non‐standard (or non‐regular) employment affects the capacity of regular workers to appropriate rents. In this context, we first extend the theoretical framework of Estevão and Tevlin to account for the heterogeneity of labour (regular and non‐regular workers).
