Disulfide Glass: An Optical Polymer for Commodity Plastics, Precision Optics, and Photonics
From oil and glass refining to high performance commodity polymers with enhanced thermomechanical and optical properties—the synthesis of a new high refractive index, highly transparent optical thermoset polymer is reported, termed, disulfide glass that affords a robust optical glass amenable to fabrication of precision optics and thin film photonic ...

Innovation and Economic Growth [PDF]
This paper surveys the empirical evidence on the link between innovation and economic growth. It considers a number of different measures of innovation, such as R&D spending, patenting, and innovation counts, as well as the pervasive effect of ...

This study presents an electronic fine‐tuning (EFT) strategy to optimize the electronic structures of Ru species and single‐atom Zn sites by the virtue of layered nanosheets, significantly enhancing ORR and HER activities. Spectroscopic analysis and theoretical calculations uncover that this EFT effect breaks the ORR scaling limitation and positions ...

Multi‐Scaled Cellulosic Nanonetworks from Tunicates
Microbial and plant nanonetworks of cellulose have enabled a wide range of high‐performance yet sustainable materials. Herein, a third class of cellulosic nanonetworks is showcased by exploiting the only animal tissue‐producing cellulose nanofibers, i.e., ascidians. An ultrastructure including spherical cells and a microvasculature with diameters of 50–

Governance and economic growth [PDF]
Because protection of property rights cannot be appropriated by any individual, it is widely recognized as being the state's responsibility. Moreover, recent empirical evidence suggests that protection of property rights leads to higher investment levels

Near‐Field Phonon Nanoscopy and Imaging of Structural Variants in Mixed Phase BiFeO3
Nano‐Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scattering scanning near‐field optical microscopy imaging reveal the phonon response of nanoscale phase variants in mixed‐phase BiFeO3 (BFO). Direct mid‐infrared imaging of associated distinct vibrational signatures is used as a non‐invasive optical detection method for electrical switching of ...
