Capping layer enabled controlled fragmentation of two-dimensional materials by cold drawing by Chen, Ming, Li, Dong, Hou, Yuxin, Gu, Mengxi, Zeng, Qingsheng, Ning, De, Li, Weimin, Zheng, Xue, Shao, Yan, Wang, Zhixun, Xia, Juan, Yang, Chunlei, Wei, Lei, Gao, Huajian

“…Compared to the abundant phenomenological results from experiments, however, the underlying mechanisms of this technique are not fully explored. Here, supported by experimental investigation, finite element calculations, and theoretical modeling, we systematically study the effect of a capping layer on the controlled fragmentation of 2D materials deposited on polymer substrates during the cold drawing. …”

Essays on the market for corporate bonds by Levonmaa, A

“…Using intraday transaction data from the TRACE database, I analyse over 1,000 of the most liquid corporate bonds, a total of 9.5 million trades. Drawing on similar studies of other markets, the relationship between returns and order flow is modelled using a vector autoregression, and the information content of a trade is measured as the long-run price impact of a shock to order flow. …”
