Subhasish M. Chowdhury
Oct 01, 2017
I model innovation contests as an all-pay auction in which it is possible not to achieve successful innovation despite costly R&D investments, and as a result, there is no winner. In such a case, the winning payoff turns out...

Phase transition enhanced pyroelectric nanogenerators for self-powered temperature sensors

Pyroelectric materials are of interest for waste heat utilization and thermal detection. However, the low output current and inefficiency reduces their effectiveness. Here, we utilize the abrupt decrease in polarization of...

Post-Cartel Tacit Collusion
