The Unworkability of “Balanced Treaties” and the Importance of Diversity of Approach Among the BRICS

AJIL Unbound, 2018
There is much rethinking being done about investment treaties. While some level of uniformity existed when there was institutional direction by the World Bank and hegemonic pressure exerted by states in the Global North, geopolitical power is now ...

Porous Ultralow‐κ sp2‐Bonded Boron Nitride Thin Films as Copper Diffusion Barriers

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Porous sp2‐bonded boron nitride (p‐BN) thin films with an ultralow dielectric constant (κ = 1.77) are directly grown on Si substrates via RF magnetron sputtering. The films feature uniform nanopores (1.85 nm), high mechanical stability, hydrophobicity, and excellent Cu diffusion barrier performance even at 3 nm thickness, offering a promising solution ...

Low‐Power Control Of Resistance Switching Transitions in First‐Order Memristors

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Joule losses are a serious concern in modern integrated circuit design. In this regard, minimizing the energy necessary for programming memristors should be handled with care. This manuscript presents an optimal control framework, allowing to derive energy‐efficient programming voltage protocols for resistance switching devices. Following this approach,

Climate Change and Older Persons’ Health: Incorporating Third World Approaches to International Law into Climate Justice

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2023
Existing literature reveal that older persons are among the highest number of climate change-induced mortalities. Older persons are particularly vulnerable to mounting temperature which could lead to their avoidable hospitalization and death. This article generates substantial research resources and applies robust and appropriate research design and ...

Machine Learning‐Assisted Design and Performance Prediction of a Compact Dual‐Band Polarization‐Insensitive THz Metamaterial Absorber for Skin‐Cancer‐Related Refractive‐Index Sensing

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A compact QASRR‐based THz metamaterial absorber enables polarization‐insensitive dual‐band absorption and skin‐cancer‐related refractive‐index sensing through measurable resonance shifts. Field, surface‐current, and circuit analyses clarify the dual‐resonance mechanism, while StackNet‐assisted prediction accurately estimates the simulated absorption ...

Advancing Energy Materials by In Situ Atomic Scale Methods

Advanced Energy Materials, Volume 15, Issue 11, March 18, 2025.
Progress in in situ atomic scale methods leads to an improved understanding of new and advanced energy materials, where a local understanding of complex, inhomogeneous systems or interfaces down to the atomic scale and quantum level is required. Topics from photovoltaics, dissipation losses, phase transitions, and chemical energy conversion are ...

Critiquing Theoretical Approaches to International Law: Toward a Balanced International Legal Order [PDF]

Societas et Iurisprudentia
International law stands at the crossroads of power and principle. Realist, state-centric, and Kantian traditions all attempt to explain its reach and its limits, yet each falls prey to characteristic blind spots.
