The Economics of Conflicts of Interest in Financial Institutions [PDF]

open access: yes
A conflict of interest exists when a party to a transaction could potentially make a gain from taking actions that are detrimental to the other party in the transaction. This paper examines the economics of conflicts of interest in financial institutions

Multifunctional E‐Tattoos Based on Electrospun PVBVA Fibers Coated with Ti3C2Tx MXene for Energy Harvesting, Energy Storage, and Biometric Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study explores a novel E‐tattoo made from PVBVA fibers coated with Ti3C2Tx MXene. The device is designed to harvest energy directly from the human body, providing power for itself. The research demonstrates the E‐tattoo's capability for charge storage and its potential for health monitoring through integrated ECG and EMG sensing, all within a ...

Ultrafast Multilevel Switching and Synaptic Behavior in a Planar Quantum Topological Memristor

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Dry‐transferred Bi2Te3 layers enable a planar quantum topological memristor framework. In‐plane topological surface states facilitate ultrafast & low‐power operations. Coexisting analog and digital modes support current‐controlled multilevel states. PQTM exhibits 105 s retention, 103 cycles endurance, and reproducibility across 24 devices.

Enhanced Bandgap Flexibility in Perovskite‐Silicon Tandem Solar Cells via Three‐Terminal Architecture

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Three‐terminal (3T) perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells overcome the current‐matching constraints of 2T designs. Using an IBC POLO silicon bottom cell, we demonstrate a 30.1% PCE, with performance largely decoupled from perovskite bandgap and enhanced resilience under realistic, time‐dependent solar spectra.

Strategic Beliefs [PDF]

open access: yes
We provide a discipline for beliefs formation through a model of subjective beliefs, in which agents hold incorrect but strategic beliefs. More precisely, we consider beliefs as a strategic variable that agents can manipulate to maximize their utility ...

The Politics of IMF Forecasts [PDF]

open access: yes
Using panel data for 157 countries over the period 1999-2005 we empirically investigate the politics involved in IMF economic forecasts. We find a systematic bias in growth and inflation forecasts.

Ionic Highways under Multivariate‐Coupled Strategies: Ultrahigh Power Generation from Industrial Waste Liquors Using Robust COF Membranes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a multivariate‐coupled strategy to fabricate TB‐COF membranes with tunable charge density via uniformly distributed Bpy groups, enabling efficient ion transport and energy harvesting. The robust β‐ketoenamine‐linked structure ensures stability, achieving power outputs of 53.08 W m−2 (pH 4), 190.52 W m−2 (low‐grade heat), and 258.81 ...

Multi‐Force‐Driven Self‐Recoverable SWIR Mechanoluminescence for Underwater Communication

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study represents the first demonstration of self‐recoverable mechanoluminescent (ML) within a single material across diverse mechanical modes, enabled by the synergistic coupling of piezoelectric and triboelectric effects. Through a combinatorial doping approach, the MgNb2O6 crystal exhibits breakthrough short‐wavelength infrared ML performance ...
