High gain/bandwidth off‑chip antenna loaded with metamaterial unit‑cell impedance matching circuit for sub‑terahertz near‑field electronic systems by Alibakhshikenari, Mohammad, Virdee, Bal Singh, Mariyanayagam, Dion, Vadalà, Valeria, Naser-Moghadasi, Mohammad, See, Chan, Dayoub, Iyad, Aïssa, Sonia, Livreri, Patrizia, Burokur, Shah Nawaz, Pietrenko‑Dabrowska, Anna, Falcone, Francisco, Koziel, Slawomir, Limiti, Ernesto

“…The proposed OCA is implemented on stacked silicon layers and consists of an open circuit meandering line. It is shown that by loading the antenna with an array of subwavelength circular dielectric slots and terminating it with a metamaterial unit cell, its impedance bandwidth is enhanced by a factor of two and its gain on average by about 4 dB. …”

Microcredit in China: Recommendations for Policy Makers by Geraci, Michele, Luan, Mengna, Dixon, Chris

“…Our main belief is that while the various initiatives of several NGOs operating on a non-profit basis in China are laudable and successful, even within the limited scope in which they operate, a true development of microcredit in China that can make a real impact on the vast number of mid-low income residents can only occur if a double-bottom-line approach is implemented. That is both serving the social mission of helping poor people and establishing financially viable lending entities. …”
