Transport Resistance Dominates the Fill Factor Losses in Record Organic Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Organic photovoltaics are a promising solar cell technology, but even the record devices with 20% efficiency have significant fill factor losses due to low active layer conductivities. In this Perspective, the authors describe the origin of these losses, discuss experimental methods for their quantification, and explain how to minimize them to optimize

Advanced Liquid Electrolyte Design for High‐Voltage and High‐Safety Lithium Metal Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the key challenges in designing high‐voltage, safe electrolytes for lithium metal batteries (LMBs), including dendrite growth, interfacial instability, and flammability. The corresponding strategies cover regulating salt concentrations, designing fluorinated weakly solvating solvents, applying ionic liquids, and developing flame ...

The future of dispute resolution in international trade

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract Given ongoing dysfunction of the World Trade Organization's Appellate Body, the focus of this article is on the future of trade dispute resolution, with evaluation of two questions: (i) What is the current status of WTO dispute resolution as compared to that conducted through existing preferential trade agreements (PTAs)? and (ii) What are the

Incorporating economic multipliers in a bid adjustment algorithm for public food procurement decision making

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract We present an adjusted bid price mechanism that incorporates economic multiplier effects in public food procurement decision making. Under Input–Output model assumptions, the algorithm estimates enhanced tax revenues to state governments through multiplier effects associated with in‐state supplier purchasing.

What matters for agricultural trade? Assessing the role of trade deal provisions using machine learning

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper employs machine learning to determine which preferential trade agreement (PTA) provisions are relevant to agricultural trade patterns and the factors that may influence their adoption. Utilizing the three‐way gravity model, we apply plug‐in Lasso regularized regression to pinpoint predictive PTA provisions for agricultural trade ...

King and Cochrane: The technological treadmill and racial inequity in US agriculture

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract Between 1920 and 1969, the number of Black farmers in the US decreased from 14% of all operators to 4%. Using Martin Luther King Jr.'s critique of agricultural policy and Willard Cochrane's theory of the technological treadmill, we explore how racial discrimination was linked to policies that led to structural change in US agriculture.

Technological change, capital deepening, and agricultural total factor productivity (TFP) growth: Cross‐country comparison of 18 OECD countries

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper employs the data envelope analysis (DEA) to assess technological progress and its impact on agricultural total factor productivity (TFP) across 18 the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries from 1973 to 2015.
