HfO 2 -based films are important materials used in broad range of electronic applications from high-performance transistors and memory cells, to thermoelectric and energy harvesting elements. By employing scanning probe methods, we made nanoscale comparison of chemical composition, surface...

In this paper, I use spatial variation in electricity distribution prices to measure the long-run price elasticity of electricity demand for Swedish households. The results reveal that households are inelastic in the long-run, with an estimated price elasticity of approximately − 0.34. This...

The third-degree price discrimination theory charges a lower price to a more elastic demand. This paper unveils an unpleasant result of such theory: the lower price comes with less quantity. This paper further reveals the true meaning of elasticity pricing

Dietary choices are one of the main causes of mortality and environmental degradation. Plant-based diets, in comparison to diets rich in animal products, are considered to be more sustainable because they use fewer natural resources and come with a lower environmental burden, resulting in lower...

Electricity markets balance supply and demand with price. Historically, this price response has come almost entirely from supply. However, when much of supply is intermittent or inflexible, price responsive demand becomes essential for reliability and resiliency. We measure how responsive...

Standard discrete choice models such as logit, nested logit, and random coefficients models place very strong restrictions on how unobservable product space increases with the number of products. We argue (and show with Monte Carlo experiments) that these restrictions can lead to biased...
