Finding innovative solutions to complex problems is often about finding people who have access to novel information and alternative viewpoints. Research has found that most people are connected to each other through just a few degrees of separation, but successful social search is often...

In this study, the degradation of nitenpyram (NTP) using Ag@AgCl/ZnAl-LDH material photocatalytically activated peroxymonosulfate (PMS) system was analyzed. As photocatalysts, Ag@AgCl and calcined zinc-aluminum layered double hydroxide (MMO) had high efficiency to achieve the separation of...

A nitrogen(N)-doped hierarchical porous graphite carbon (NHC) was synthesized at different hydrothermal carbonization temperature (400, 600 and 800°C) using a template-free and solvent-free method. The as-prepared materials possessed perfect bifunctional performance for antibiotics tetracycline...

A Bi 2 MoO 6 /carbon quantum dots/Bi 2 S 3 (BMO/CQDs/BIS) was successfully fabricated as a high-efficient photocatalyst for degradation of some persistent organic pollutants and reduction of Cr (Ⅵ), in which the CQDs was derived from waste sludge biomass. The conversion photoluminescence and...

A dual-function S-scheme Cs 2 AgBiBr 6 /Ag 3 PO 4 (CA) heterojunction photocatalyst with nano-flower structure was synthesized to achieve green energy hydrogen (H 2 ) production and persistent organic pollutants degradation under visible light. The high crystalline quality and strong interface...

A Bi2MoO6/carbon quantum dots/Bi2S3 (BMO/CQDs/BIS) was successfully fabricated as a high-efficient photocatalyst for degradation of some persistent organic pollutants and reduction of Cr (Ⅵ), in which the CQDs was derived from waste sludge biomass. The conversion photoluminescence and electron...

In a crisis, regulators and private investors can find it difficult, if not impossible, to tell whether banks facing runs are insolvent or merely illiquid. We introduce such an information constraint into a global-games-based bank run model with multiple banks and aggregate uncertainties. The...

We develop a theory of bank information sharing, highlighting the interactions between credit and labor markets. A better-informed relationship bank competes with a less informed foreign bank for borrowers under asymmetric information about borrowers' creditworthiness. Credit market competition...

Genetically modified (GM) food products and their labeling have become a major policy issue with impassioned public debates. We explore the impact of different labeling regimes on consumer attitudes towards GM products and consumer welfare. Our experimental results illustrate that these consumer...
