The effects of transition and political instability on foreign direct investment: Central Europe and the Balkans [PDF]
In this paper we estimate the effects of transition and political instability in the Eastern European and Balkan transition countries on their FDI inflows. For transition countries unaffected by political instability, FDI inflows in the 1990s were around

Designed Lewis Acid–Base Passivation for High Performance Perovskite Solar Cells
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Silicon's high cost and long energy payback time remain major barriers to the global expansion of solar power. In contrast, metal–halide perovskites offer abundant, solution‐processable absorbers, and have achieved efficiencies of 25%–30%, positioning them as strong competitors to silicon.
