Role of contact bonding on electronic transport in metal-carbon nanotube-metal systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We have investigated the effects of the interfacial bond arrangement on the electronic transport features of metal-nanotube-metal systems. The transport properties of finite, defect-free armchair and zigzag single-walled carbon nanotubes attached to Au ...

Partial order from disorder in a classical pyrochlore antiferromagnet [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We investigate theoretically the phase diagram of a classical Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the pyrochlore lattice perturbed by a weak second-neighbor interaction J_2. The huge ground state degeneracy of the nearest-neighbor Heisenberg spins is lifted by

Oil prices and the green bond market: Evidence from time-varying and quantile-varying aspects

open access: yesBorsa Istanbul Review, 2023
This paper investigates the link between crude oil prices (COP) and green bonds through a rolling-window Granger-causality test. The positive, negative, and uncorrelated impacts of COP on the green bond index (GBI) are captured with the same sample.

Finite size effects. The averaged eigenvalue density of Wigner random sign real symmetric matrices

open access: yes, 2016
Nowadays, strict finite size effects must be taken into account in condensed matter problems when treated through models based on lattices or graphs. On the other hand, the cases of directed bonds or links are known as highly relevant, in topics ranging ...

Green bonds, conventional bonds and geopolitical risk

open access: yesFinance Research Letters, 2023
This paper analyses linkages between green, conventional (corporate and sovereign) bond markets and geopolitical risk in high and low volatility periods between 2014 and 2022 using a Markov-switching VAR (MS-VAR) framework. The results indicate that geopolitical risk significantly affects green bonds in periods of high volatility, but does not do so to
