The Climate Imperative and Innovative Behavior: Encouraging Greater Advances in the Production of Energy-Efficient Technologies and Services [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This white paper examines why a larger array of innovative institutions, behaviors, technologies, and servicesis needed – specifically in the context of what we call “the climate imperative.” We explore possible mechanisms that can encourage the more ...

Intrinsic Business Cycles with Pro-Cyclical R&D [PDF]

open access: yes
Recent empirical work finds that R&D expenditures are quite procyclical, even for firms that are not redit-constrained during downturns. This has been taken as strong evidence against Schumpeterian-style theories of business cycles that emphasize the ...

EVIDENCE ON THE ROLE OF OWNERSHIP STRUCTURE ON FIRMS’ INNOVATIVE PERFORMANCE [PDF]

open access: yes
Based on the Knowledge Production Function framework given by Griliches (1979), we slightly modify it so that the innovative output depends upon a set of factors related to the firm internal characteristics and are influenced by the environment ...

An ultra-low dissipation micro-oscillator for quantum opto-mechanics

open access: yes, 2012
Generating non-classical states of light by opto-mechanical coupling depends critically on the mechanical and optical properties of micro-oscillators and on the minimization of thermal noise.

Targeted precision biocontrol and pollination enhancement in organic cropping systems [PDF]

open access: yes
Organic berry and fruit production suffers heavily from the lack of effective disease and pest management tools, and from inadequate insect pollination at times. As a consequence, the expanding demand on organic berries cannot be filled today.
