Renegotiation of concession contracts in Latin America [PDF]
The authors construct a regulation model in which renegotiation occurs due to the imperfect enforcement of concession contracts. This enables the authors to provide theoretical predictions for the impact on the probability of renegotiation of a ...

VO2 Oscillator Circuits Optimized for Ultrafast, 100 MHz‐Range Operation
Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.The present study demonstrates ultrasmall (≈30 nm) VO2 Mott memristor‐based oscillators which enter the >100 MHz frequency range via device scaling and optimization of the circuit layout for high frequency operation. Time‐resolved investigation of switching dynamics along with circuit‐level and physics‐based electrothermal simulations identify physical

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.This review discusses the integrated pathway of CO2 capture and its direct electrochemical conversion. It begins by discussing CO2 capture chemistries and solvent systems, followed by a detailed analysis of various CO2 release mechanisms. Key principles of reactor and catalyst design for direct CO2 electroreduction from capture media are then ...

Rethinking Sustainable Batteries
Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.This perspective examines sustainability across the entire battery lifecycle, from mining and manufacturing to use and end of life. Twelve principles for ‘green’ batteries are outlined, and it is argued that joint industrial, academic, and policy efforts are essential to building a truly sustainable energy future. Abstract Batteries will play a pivotal
