Scarpulla, Michael | The importance of Se partial pressure in the laser annealing of CuInSe2 electrodeposited precursors | One method for producing CuInSe2 (CISe) absorber layers is electrodeposition followed by annealing. Replacing the commonly used furnace annealing step with a laser can reduce annealing times by 2-3 orders of magnitude: from 30 minutes to 1 s. However, laser processing has, to date, not resulted in a... | | 2014-01-01 |

Liu, Feng | Exceptional optoelectronic properties of hydrogenated bilayer silicene | Silicon is arguably the best electronic material, but it is not a good optoelectronic material. By employing first-principles calculations and the cluster-expansion approach, we discover that hydrogenated bilayer silicene (BS) shows promising potential as a new kind of optoelectronic material. Most ... | | 2014-01-01 |

Mallat, Chibli | After Kosovo: Secession in the Middle East | A federal state is better than the division of the land. This is also true for Kosovo and the other countries in the Balkans, as it is for Sudan and Yemen. The ICJ Kosovo ruling is good for secessionists, bad for democrats, and devastating for order in the planet. | | 2010-09-02 |

Chodosh, Hiram E. | Mapping corruption: Why Words Make a Difference | As I observed two weeks ago in this column, the vernacular for corruption is rich, awareness increasingly acute and legal strategies increasingly aggressive; yet, accepted conceptions and definitions of corruption are far from universal. Why is this so? And why does it matter? | | 2009-10-08 |
