The UN, Energy and the Sustainable Development Goals

open access: yes, 2016
This chapter analyses first the very humble presence of energy in the United Nations (UN) during the organization’s first seven decades. Norm development and institutionalization of energy are described along four themes: energy for the nations, energy for development, energy for the environment and energy for human well-being.

LEAD: Literature Enhanced Ab Initio Discovery of Nitride Dusting Layers for Enhanced Tunnel Magnetoresistance and Lower Resistance Magnetic Tunnel Junctions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) using MgO tunnel barriers face challenges of high resistance‐area product and low tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR). To discover alternative materials, Literature Enhanced Ab initio Discovery (LEAD) is developed. The LEAD‐predicted materials are theoretically evaluated, showing that MTJs with dusting of ScN or TiN on ...
