High Aspect Ratio Au Microflakes via Gap-Assisted Synthesis

Giulia Tagliabue, Fateme Kiani Shahvandi

Ultrathin and extra-large single-crystalline Au microflakes (Au MFs) have a huge potential in applications ranging from nanophotonics to catalysis. Yet, wet chemical synthesis approaches cannot access this size range due to the proportionality between grow ...

Direct high-temperature growth of single-crystalline GaN on ScAlMgO4 substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Alessandro Floriduz

In this note, we demonstrate direct high-temperature growth of single-crystalline GaN on c-plane ScAlMgO4 substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition, without using low-temperature buffers. We found that a trimethylaluminium preflow was crucial to ...

Drops on the Underside of a Slightly Inclined Wet Substrate Move Too Fast to Grow

François Gallaire, Pierre-Thomas Paul Brun, Pier Giuseppe Ledda

Pendant drops suspended on the underside of a wet substrate are known to accumulate fluid from the surrounding thin liquid film, a process that often results in dripping. The growth of such drops is hastened by their ability to translate over an otherwise ...

International Migration And The Growth Of Zurich, 1836-1949

Mathias Lerch

The role played by international migration and its interactions with other demographic components in the process of city growth remains underappreciated. We analyze trends in natural increase and in net internal and international migration in Zurich during ...

Modeling the Shape Evolution of Selective Area Grown Zn3P2 Nanoislands

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Jean-Baptiste Leran, Simon Robert Escobar Steinvall, Mahdi Zamani, Rajrupa Paul, Elias Zsolt Stutz

Selective area growth of zinc phosphide (Zn3P2) on InP provides a pathway to high-quality semiconductor nanostructures and textured thin films made of earth-abundant elements. In the precoalescence stage, Zn3P2 emerges in the form of nanoislands undergoing ...

Antiangiogenic immunotherapy suppresses desmoplastic and chemoresistant intestinal tumors in mice

Matthias Lütolf, Michele De Palma, Mauro Delorenzi, Mario Leonardo Squadrito, Sina Nassiri, Nikolche Gjorevski, Alan Nicolas Thierry Guichard

Mutations in APC promote colorectal cancer (CRC) progression through uncontrolled WNT signaling. Patients with desmoplastic CRC have a significantly worse prognosis and do not benefit from chemotherapy, but the mechanisms underlying the differential respon ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Buckling of geometrically confined shells

Matteo Pezzulla

We study the periodic buckling patterns that emerge when elastic shells are subjected to geometric confinement. Residual swelling provides access to range of shapes (saddles, rolled sheets, cylinders, and spherical sections) which vary in their extrinsic a ...

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 ...

Why Does Fast Loan Growth Predict Poor Performance for Banks?

Rüdiger Fahlenbrach

From 1973 to 2014, the common stock of U.S. banks with loan growth in the top quartile of banks over a three-year period significantly underperformed the common stock of banks with loan growth in the bottom quartile over the next three years. After the per ...

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 ...
