Protecting Intermediate Innovations When Ideas Are Scarce: Patents or Secrecy?
ABSTRACT Patenting an intermediate research innovation can lead to competition for the development of a final commercial innovation and potentially induce wasteful duplicative R&D efforts. This study examines the effects of different protection strategies and patent life on the incentives to protect an intermediate innovation by considering a two‐stage

Abstract We examine the effect of the inevitable disclosure doctrine (IDD) on cost of debt. Our difference‐in‐differences analyses reveal that the IDD significantly reduces the loan spread for borrowers in adopting states. To elucidate the mechanisms of such finding, we find that the IDD's effect is weaker in industries with high management turnover ...

Simple Python‐based methods for analysis and drift‐correction of STM images
Abstract A successful scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) experiment relies on both delicate sample preparation and measurement, and careful image filtering and analysis to provide clear and solid results. Processing and analysis of STM images may result in a tricky task, due to the complexity and specificity of the probed systems.

CryoFluorSEM – A new approach for fluorescence and EM imaging of cryofractured plant samples
Abstract Cryo‐scanning electron microscopy (CryoSEM) permits the preparation and detailed imaging of bulky samples while keeping them in a hydrated state. For plant biology, cryofractures give information on cell ultrastructure and tissue organisation within a much larger context that is the whole organ or organism.

ABSTRACT This contribution to the special issue examines a constrained version of citizenship in Indonesia's plantation zone. When corporations take hold of village land, residents experience devastating dispossession and a profound sense of injustice, yet they lack effective channels through which to claim rights as citizens or secure remedy from the ...
