Society and the Adolescent Self-Image
Over 5,000 high-school students of different social, religious, and national backgrounds were studied to show the effects of family experience, neighborhoods, minority groups, e...
A low-cost, high-efficiency solar cell based on dye-sensitized colloidal TiO2 films
THE large-scale use of photovoltaic devices for electricity generation is prohibitively expensive at present: generation from existing commercial devices costs about ten times m...
Economic Action and Social Structure: The Problem of Embeddedness
How behavior and institutions are affected by social relations is one of the classic questions of social theory. This paper concerns the extent to which economic action is embed...
The ERA5 global reanalysis
Abstract Within the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S), ECMWF is producing the ERA5 reanalysis which, once completed, will embody a detailed record of the global atmosphere...
Squeeze-and-Excitation Networks
Convolutional neural networks are built upon the convolution operation, which extracts informative features by fusing spatial and channel-wise information together within local ...
SPAdes: A New Genome Assembly Algorithm and Its Applications to Single-Cell Sequencing
The lion's share of bacteria in various environments cannot be cloned in the laboratory and thus cannot be sequenced using existing technologies. A major goal of single-cell gen...
Social Capital in the Creation of Human Capital
There are two broad intellectual streams in the description and explanation of social action. One, characteristic of the work of most sociologists, sees the actor as socialized ...
<i>VESTA 3</i> for three-dimensional visualization of crystal, volumetric and morphology data
VESTA is a three-dimensional visualization system for crystallographic studies and electronic state calculations. It has been upgraded to the latest version, VESTA 3 , implement...

Soft self-consistent pseudopotentials in a generalized eigenvalue formalism
A new approach to the construction of first-principles pseudopotentials is described. The method allows transferability to be improved systematically while holding the cutoff ra...
Organometal Halide Perovskites as Visible-Light Sensitizers for Photovoltaic Cells
Two organolead halide perovskite nanocrystals, CH(3)NH(3)PbBr(3) and CH(3)NH(3)PbI(3), were found to efficiently sensitize TiO(2) for visible-light conversion in photoelectroche...
