Flowing Together or Flowing Apart: An Analysis of the Relation between FDI and ODA Flows to Argentina and Brazil
The analysis of the relationship between ODA and capital flows is scarce and has provided cross-country ambiguous results. The purpose of our study is to explore the relation between FDI and ODA for Argentina and Brazil. We have divided the analysis into the macro and the micro approach. From the macro perspective, we analyze the volatility and cyclical aspects of both flows. We also study if they buffer GDP’s shocks. We find that aid is more stable than FDI… At micro level, we look for structural relations by analyzing sectorial destination of both flows. We find that the main foreign direct investors are also the main donors but no systematic relation emerge between FDI and ODA flows, except for the Japanese case in Brazil.Foreign Direct Investment; Official Development Assistance; International Capital Flows; Emerging Economies Financing
Bottom-up approach to silicon nanoelectronics
103-108Silicon, nanoelectronics, nanodotsThis paper presents a brief review of our recent work investigating a novel bottom-up approach to realize silicon based nanoelectronics. We discuss fabrication technique, electronic properties and device applications of silicon nanodots as a building block for nanoscale silicon devices
High-speed and Nonvolatile Nano Electromechanical Memory incorporating Si Quantum Dots
Basic device characteristics were investigated for a new high-speed and non-volatile nano electro-mechanical systems (NEMS) memory device with nanocrystalline silicon (nc-Si) dots embedded in its movable floating gate beam.Over 1 GHz operation is possible due to the size reduction of the NEMS. From a simulation of mechanical properties of the movable floating gate beam, advantage of using the nc-Si dots array was shown for low power operation. The mechanical bistability of the fabricated SiO2 beam was clearly observed in both experimental and simulation studies
