Fermi Surface Nesting and Anomalous Hall Effect in Magnetically Frustrated Mn2PdIn

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mn2PdIn, a frustrated inverse Heusler alloy, showing electronic‐structure driven anomalous Hall effect with Weyl crossings, Fermi‐surface nesting and near‐zero magnetization ideal for low‐magnetization spintronics. Abstract Noncollinear magnets with near‐zero net magnetization and nontrivial bulk electronic topology hold significant promise for ...

Bioinspired Bromination Enables Extensible, Strain‐Stiffening Resilin Peptide Scaffolds with Tunable Degradation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioinspired bromination of a resilin‐derived peptide enables the fabrication of electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds that uniquely combine strain‐stiffening elasticity, proteolytic stability, and antioxidant functionality. These brominated peptide–gelatin hybrids mimic the extensibility of natural elastomers, demonstrating tunable mechanical resilience ...

Against all odds: fathers’ use of parental leave in Germany [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper investigates fathers’ usage of parental leave in Germany based on data from the microcenses 1999-2005. We consider two competing hypotheses. On the one hand, we argue that value change is a driving force behind fathers’ engagement in parenting

Gendering Parental Leave Arrangements

open access: yesKazoku syakaigaku kenkyu, 1998
育児休業は、常にジェンダー変革的とは限らない。制度は両性に開かれていても、実際に取得するのは母親が多い。女性ばかりが取得する結果、労働市場における男女不平等が再生産される。では、いかなる条件の下で、育児休業政策はジェンダー革新的になるのだろうか。本稿では、EUおよび北欧諸国 (スウェーデン、デンマーク、ノルウェー) の経験に注目しながら、男性の子育てを促進するジェンダー自覚的な育児休業のあり方を探る。ヨーロッパの経験からは、1) 「男性稼ぎ手モデル」から「平等シェアモデル」へ、2) 「家族単位」の制度から「他者 (移譲できない個人の権利」としての制度へ、という二つの基本的な政策動向が見いだされた。北欧の経験によれば、ジェンダー変革的な育児休業制度の条件は、1) 最低6ヶ月を越える充分な期間の長さ、2)

Three‐dimensional Antimony Sulfide Based Flat Optics

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents the development of a grayscale electron beam lithography (g‐EBL) method for fabricating antimony trisulfide (Sb2S3) nanostructures with customizable 3D profiles. The refractive index of g‐EBL patterned Sb2S3 is determined based on the synergy of genetic algorithm and transfer matrix method.

Gender Equality and Fertility in Sweden: A Study on the Impact of the Father’s Uptake of Parental Leave on Continued Childbearing [PDF]

open access: yes
In Sweden, the birth of a child induces the right to more than one year of paid parental leave that can be shared between the parents. This paper examines the relationship between the father’s and the mother’s respective use of such leave and the ...

The duration of paid parental leave and children's scholastic performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We study how the duration of paid parental leave affects the accumulation of cognitive skills among children. We use a reform which extended parental leave benefits from 12 to 15 months for Swedish children born after August 1988 to evaluate the effects ...
