Photovoltaics at multi-terawatt scale: Waiting is not an option

Sophia Haussener, Stefaan De Wolf

A major renewable-energy milestone occurred in 2022: Photovoltaics (PV) exceeded a global installed capacity of 1 TWdc. But despite considerable growth and cost reduction over time, PV is still a small part of global electricity generation (4 to 5% for 202 ...

Interspecies interactions determine growth dynamics of biopolymer- degrading populations in microbial communities

Martin Ackermann

Microbial communities perform essential ecosystem functions such as the remineralization of organic carbon that exists as biopolymers. The first step in mineralization is performed by biopolymer degraders, which harbor enzymes that can break down polymers ...

Can one hear the shape of a target zone?

Max-Olivier Hongler

We develop an exchange rate target zone model with finite exit time and non-Gaussian tails. We show how the tails are a consequence of time-varying investor risk aversion, which generates mean-preserving spreads in the fundamental distribution. We solve ex ...

Considerations of the Impacts of Cell-Specific Growth and Production Rate on Clone Selection-A Simulation Study

Florian Maria Wurm

For the manufacturing of complex biopharmaceuticals using bioreactors with cultivated mammalian cells, high product concentration is an important objective. The phenotype of the cells in a reactor plays an important role. Are clonal cell populations showin ...

Simultaneous Selective Area Growth of Wurtzite and Zincblende Self-Catalyzed GaAs Nanowires on Silicon

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Lucas Güniat, Valerio Piazza, Wonjong Kim, Vladimir Dubrovskii

Selective area epitaxy constitutes a mainstream method to obtain reproducible nanomaterials. As a counterpart, self-assembly allows their growth without costly substrate preparation, with the drawback of uncontrolled positioning. We propose a mixed approac ...

Frequent new particle formation over the high Arctic pack ice by enhanced iodine emissions, ancillary data

Julia Schmale, Andrea Baccarini

This dataset contains a collection of ancillary data that were used for the publication Frequent new particle formation over the high Arctic pack ice by enhanced iodine emissions (Baccarini et al., 2020, Nature Comm.). Some of these datasets can be reprodu ...

Unpacking the Green Economy concept: A quantitative analysis of 140 definitions

Romano Tobias Wyss, Albert Merino, Marta Giulia Baldi

Over the past ten years, the Green Economy (GE) concept has gained momentum in both academia and policy-making arenas, leading to international programs in diverse sectors and driving national agendas all over the world. The concept is however highly contr ...

Liquidity, Innovation, And Endogenous Growth

Semyon Malamud, Francesca Maria Zucchi

We build a model of endogenous, innovation-driven growth in which innovative firms have costly access to outside financing and hoard cash reserves to maintain financial flexibility. We show that financing frictions slow down Schumpeterian creative destruct ...

A Sparsity Measure For Echo Density Growth In General Environments

Helena Peic Tukuljac

We study the detailed temporal evolution of echo density in impulse responses for applications in acoustic analysis and rendering on general environments. For this purpose, we propose a smooth sorted density measure that yields an intuitive trend of echo d ...

Imitation, Proximity, and Growth - A Collective Swarm Dynamics Approach

Max-Olivier Hongler, Olivier Gallay, Fariba Hashemi

This paper is based on the premise that economic growth is driven by an interplay between innovation and imitation in an economy composed of interacting ̄rms operating in a stochastic environment. A novel approach to modeling imitation is presented based o ...

Three Problems of Liquidity under Asymmetric Information

Sylvain Jean Pascal Carré

This thesis develops models for three problems of liquidity under asymmetric information. In the chapter "Disclosures, Rollover Risk, and Debt Runs" I build a model of dynamic debt runs without perfect information in order to understand the impact of asset ...

Growth kinetics and morphological analysis of homoepitaxial GaAs fins by theory and experiment

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Gözde Tütüncüoglu, Martin George Friedl, Lea Ghisalberti

Nanoscale membranes have emerged as a new class of vertical nanostructures that enable the integration of horizontal networks of III-V nanowires on a chip. To generalize this method to the whole family of III-Vs, progress in the understanding of the membra ...

Endogenous Energy Efficiency Improvement of Large-Scale Refurbishment in the Swiss Residential Building Stock

Marc Vielle, Sergey Arzoyan, Michel Zimmermann

In Switzerland, according to Swiss Federal Office of Energy around 50% of primary energy consumption is attributable to buildings: 30% for heating, air-conditioning and hot water, 14% for electricity and around 6% for construction and maintenance. However, ...

Asset Pricing When 'This Time Is Different'

Pierre Collin Dufresne

Recent evidence suggests that younger people update beliefs in response to aggregate shocks more than older people. We embed this generational learning bias in an equilibrium model in which agents have recursive preferences and are uncertain about exogenou ...

Tuning growth direction of catalyst-free InAs(Sb) nanowires with indium droplets

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Gözde Tütüncüoglu, Martin George Friedl, Heidi Andrea Potts, Nicholas Paul Morgan

The need for indium droplets to initiate self-catalyzed growth of InAs nanowires has been highly debated in the last few years. Here, we report on the use of indium droplets to tune the growth direction of self-catalyzed InAs nanowires. The indium droplets ...

Highly Oriented Atomically Thin Ambipolar MoSe2

Andras Kis, Philippe Gillet, Dmitry Ovchinnikov, Oleg Yazyev, Ming-Wei Chen, Oriol López Sánchez, Alessandro Surrente, Michele Pizzochero

Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), together with other two-dimensional (2D) materials, have attracted great interest due to the unique optical and electrical properties of atomically thin layers. In order to fulfill their potential, developing large ...

Capital goods, measured TFP and growth: The case of Spain

Luis Franjo Garcia

The effect of investing in equipment and/or structures on TFP and long run growth is investigated here. We argue that economies can grow in spite of stagnant TFP if the investment rate is inefficiently high. We study the case of Spain where real GDP per wo ...
