Effect of Carbon Overcoat Implantation on the Magnetic and Structural Properties of Perpendicular Recording Media by Piramanayagam, S. N., Shakerzadeh, M., Varghese, B., Tan, H. K.

“…In this paper, we focus our attention on the implantation effects of the energetic carbon on the magnetic and the structural properties of the recording media of two types, antiferromagnetically coupled and a single layer, in order to gain a meaningful insight on the implantation and its effect. The studies reveal that the energetic deposition alters the anisotropy constant of the magnetic layer, resulting in a reduction in the coercivity and the thermal stability factor.…”

Entrepreneurial resourcefulness: theoretical origins, integrative review, and research agenda by Williams, TA, Li, JM, Zhao, EY

“…While this diversity demonstrates the promise and depth of entrepreneurial resourcefulness, this research is fragmented across disciplines, theories, and levels of analysis, which limits our understanding of when, why, and how entrepreneurial resourcefulness occurs and its effect on the entrepreneurial process. This study reviews and integrates the literature on entrepreneurial resourcefulness, providing a common foundational grounding that coheres diverse yet related streams of research. …”
