Construction and Characterization of Ru(II)Tris(bipyridine)-Based Silica Thin Film Electrochemiluminescent Sensors. L. Armelao, R. Bertoncello, S. Gross, D. Badocco and P. Pastore,
Ru(II) tris-bipyridine based ECL sensors were produced by embeddingthe complex inside silica glass thin films
deposited via a sol-gel dipping procedure on K-glass conducing substrates. Films were prepared starting from a prehydrolyzed
ethanolic solution of Si(OC2H5)4 and Ru(bpy)3Cl2. Transparent, crack-free and homogeneous reddish
silica layers, havinga thickness of 20020 nm, were obtained. The films, either deposited at room temperature or
thermally annealed at 100, 200 and 300 C for 30 h, were structurally and chemically characterized. Ru(bpy)3Cl2
thermal stability was previously checked by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The films were investigated by X-Ray
photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) and UV-vis spectroscopy. XPS in-depth
profiles revealed a homogeneous distribution of the ruthenium complex inside the silica thin layers. SIMS data
suggested that the embedded Ru(bpy)3Cl2 did not react with oxygen inside the oxygen-rich silica matrix to give Ru-O
bonds. Electrochemical and ECL characterization of the thin film electrodes were made by means of cyclic
voltammetry (CV) and controlled potential step experiments. The ECL sensor showed a diffusive redox behavior of
the Ru(bpy)3
2+/Ru(bpy)3 3+ system. Light emission produced from the reaction between oxalic acid and the
electrogenerated Ru(bpy)3
3+ was larger and stable when thermally treated electrodes were used after a suitable
hydration period. The 300°C treated sample was the best performingsensor both in terms of low complex leakage and
sensitivity. Calibration plots relative to oxalic acid were obtained both in stationary and in flowingsolutions in the
concentration range 2uM - 300 uM. A linear behavior appeared in the former case, while in the latter a slight
curvature was evident as a consequence of a finite diffusion time of the analyte inside the thin film. The signal
repeatability, obtained by multiple 100 uL of 10 uM oxalic acid injections in flowingsolutions , was better than 4%.
The obtained detection limit (computed as three times the standard deviation of the base-line noise) was 10-6M as
oxalic acid
Gross loan flows
Changes in net lending hide the much larger and more variable gross lending flows. We present a series of stylized facts about gross loan flows and how they vary over time, bank size, and the business cycle. We look at both the intensive (increases and decreases) and extensive (entry and exits) margins. We compare these results with the output from a simple stochastic search model.Bank loans ; Business cycles
Outsourcing and Skill Imports: Foreign High-Skilled Workers on H-1B and L-1 Visas in the United States
This working paper looks in detail at the H-1B and L-1 visa programs for temporary employment in the United States. Based on official data from the US Citizenship and Immigration Services and the US Department of State, H-1B and L-1 visa issuance rapidly increased in the late 1990s, followed by a marked slowdown after 2001. This points to the highly cyclical nature of both visa programs. Indian nationals and immigrants working in computer-related occupations dominate the H1-B and L-1 population in the United States, but these two groups are also found to be the most cyclical segment, with very large declines in inflows after 2001. The total population of H-1B visaholders in 2003 is estimated to range between 387,000 and 746,000, of which 160,000 to 306,000 were Indian nationals. As all data on H-1B/L-1 visaholders are gross numbers and gross jobs data for comparable categories are absent, the extent of the impact of these visa programs on the US labor market cannot be gauged precisely. A broad range of US industries and educational institutions are found to be employing H-1B recipients, with the IT industry being the dominant sector. Evidence of aggressive wage-cost cutting, including paying H-1B recipients only the legally mandated 95 percent of the prevailing US wage, is found among some H-1B employers, although no systematic abuse of the system is present.Outsourcing, offshoring, high-skilled labor, immigration, H1B/L-1 visas
