Trust, Organizational Controls, Knowledge Acquisition from the Foreign Parents, and Performance in Vietnamese International Joint Ventures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Successful adaptation in strategic alliances "calls for a delicate balance between the twin virtues of reliability and flexibility" [Parkhe 1998]. On one hand, the joint venture must be flexible enough to respond to the uncertainties of competitive ...

All‐Optical Reconfigurable Physical Unclonable Function for Sustainable Security

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An all‐optical reconfigurable physical unclonable function (PUF) is demonstrated using plasmonic coupling–induced sintering of optically trapped gold nanoparticles, where Brownian motion serves as a robust entropy source. The resulting optical PUF exhibits high encoding density, strong resistance to modeling attacks, and practical authentication ...

Why PD-L1 expression varies between studies of lung cancer: results from a Bayesian meta-analysis

open access: yesScientific Reports
PD-L1 expression is an important biomarker for the management of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) but has been highly heterogeneous across studies. We developed a statistical model to reconcile conflicting estimates of PD-L1 prevalence by accounting ...

Complementarity, investment incentives, and evolution of joint ventures

open access: yes, 1998
This paper studies the dynamic evolution of a joint venture that is initially formed due to the complementary strengths of two firms. We analyze the impact of the investment choices of the two partner firms on the fate of the joint venture.

Powder‐to‐Film Conversion of Nickel Single‐Atom Catalysts into Binder‐Free and Resistant Electrodes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A reproducible strategy is reported for fabricating standalone thin‐film electrodes composed of CNx‐supported Ni single‐atom catalysts. The resulting binder‐free electrodes exhibit robust stability, enhanced charge transfer, and superior electrochemical performance, offering scalable opportunities for applications in electrochemistry. ABSTRACT Although
