Fabrication of nanoscale Bi Hall sensors by lift-off techniques for applications in scanning probe microscopy
Bismuth Hall effect sensors with active sizes in the range of 0.1-2 μm have been fabricated by electron beam lithography and lift-off techniques for applications in scanning Hall probe microscopy. The Hall coefficients, offset...
Tax competition between developed, emerging, and developing countries – Same same but different?
This paper analyzes tax competition between countries, which differ in their country-specific risks. We show that the outcome of asymmetric tax competition crucially depends on the ability of multinational firms to shift...
