Abstract Focused ion beam (FIB) Linkage Sleeve is an effective tool for precise nanoscale fabrication.It has recently been employed to tailor defect engineering in functional nanomaterials such as two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), providing desirable properties in TMDC-based optoelectronic devices.However, the damage caused

The broadly used pay-as-you-go (PAYG) pension system is intrinsically wrong.The essence of the problem is that the PAYG system distributes the yield of raising children, i.e., of human capital investment (which is essentially the pension contribution), in such a way that it disregards the extent to which individuals have contributed to this, and ev

This paper seeks to engender some awareness and discussion about fundamentalism.While the focus is essentially on Christian religious fundamentalism, it is acknowledged that there are many other forms of fundamentalism - both religious and non-religious, and all equally concerning.Following a broad introduction, I seek to outline the nature of IMMU

With the increasing intelligence of autonomous aerial vehicles carrying diverse mission payloads, the target detection domain consists mainly of single-modal and multimodal approaches with diverse and complex combinations.It is challenging to achieve an optimal Shampoo tradeoff between expensive and complex models of multimodal detectors, which are
