Religious restrictions, country wealth, and religious violence : a global analysis by Tan, Malcolm Si-An

“…Utilising cross-national time-series analysis of data from 175 countries spanning 1991 – 2018, this study finds that countries which spend a larger share of their wealth to impose restrictions on minority, majority, or all religions are more likely to experience higher levels of religious hostilities and violence. …”

Investigating hybrid methods of fabricating formamidinium-based perovskite solar cells by Krishnan, Sriniketh

“…A double-step method was explored on a p-i-n structure, consisting of thermal evaporation of an inorganic layer (PbI2 or PbI2-Cs) followed by spin coating of an organic layer (CH(NH)2I/CH3NH3Br/CH3NH3Cl) to complete the perovskite. …”

Harmonic Spinors in the Ricci Flow by Baldauf, Julius

“…Further, a sharp parabolic Hitchin–Thorpe inequality for simply-connected, spin 4-manifolds is proven. From this, it follows that the normalized Ricci flow on any exotic K3 surface must become singular.…”

Producing microscale Ge textures via titanium nitride- and nickel-assisted chemical etching with CMOS-compatibiliyty by Liao, Yikai, Shin, Sang-Ho, Jin, Yuhao, Wang, Qi Jie, Kim, Munho

“…Schottky contact barrier of metal catalyst with Ge is also investigated indicating similar hole injection efficiency among TiN, Ni, and Ti/Ni with Ge junction due to strong Fermi level pinning effect. The TiN- and Ni-assisted chemical etching of Ge shed light on CMOS-compatible Ge-based photonic and optoelectronic applications.…”

NMR structure and localization of the host defense antimicrobial peptide thanatin in zwitterionic dodecylphosphocholine micelle : implications in antimicrobial activity by Sinha, Sheetal, Ng, Wun Jern, Bhattacharjya, Surajit

“…The depth of insertion of thanatin into micelle structure was investigated by spin labelled doxyl lipids, 5-DSA and 16-DSA. DPC-bound structure of thanatin is defined by a -hairpin structure and an extended and turn conformations, for residues G1-I8, at the N-terminus. …”

Information pollution and the war in Gaza: implications for Singapore by Wong, Yasmine, Haciyakupoglu, Gulizar

“…Besides demonstrating various disinformation types and tactics, there is also the increased resonance of certain disinformation narratives as they overlap and impact on societal sensitivities and identity-based fault lines. These are challenges for Singapore, as societal fault lines present vulnerabilities for disinformation penetration, ultimately affecting social cohesion.…”

Allocation of reserved shares in IPO and their post-IPO performance. by Chong, Raymond Yen Sin., Shen, Heman Weiping., Tang, Lijun.

“…This paper presents and investigates three distinct proposals for the underlying rationales of the allocation of reserved shares, based on 1964 IPOs in the US spanning the years 1997 to 2009, tracking their underpricing, demand and post-IPO performance. …”
