Abstract:
In the wake of the sudden collapse of three major financial institutions in the United States (Silicon Valley Bank, Silver Gate, and Signature Bank) the Federal Government intervention was swift and quick and even surpassed regulations by promising a full refund for all bank depositors, yet was the major intervention by the Government and the United States President Joe Biden a sign of strength or weakness? This study analyzes the importance of the financial sector to achieve economic prosperity as well as the readiness of the United States Government to face future challenges that might jeopardize the entire international financial system through alarming World Bank Data.

Abstract:
Abstract This study investigates whether the ratio of long-term investment to total assets, the ratio of cash on hand to total assets, and the ratio of price-to-earnings are risk indicators for bank failures. Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), Signature Bank, and Silvergate Capital Corp., which experienced bank failure, and banks that are among the 20 largest banks in the USA are analyzed with the panel data method. Analyses were made using quarterly data between 2003Q4 and 2022Q4. It is revealed that the long-term investment to total assets ratio increases the bank failure risk. The risk of bank failure varies negatively with the cash on hand to total assets ratio. Bank failure risk rises as the price-to-earnings ratio rises. In terms of revealing the factors influencing the risk of bank failure and possible consequences, it is expected that the findings obtained could contribute to the literature.

Abstract:
Data are produced every single instant in the modern era of technological breakthroughs we live in today and is correctly termed as the lifeblood of today’s world; whether it is Google or Meta, everyone depends on data to survive. But, with the immense surge in technological boom comes several backlashes that tend to pull it down; one similar instance is the data morphing or modification of the data unethically. In many jurisdictions, the phenomenon of data morphing is considered a severe offense, subject to lifelong imprisonment. There are several cases where data are altered to encrypt reliable details. Recently, in March 2023, Silicon Valley Bank collapsed following unrest prompted by increasing rates. Silicon Valley Bank ran out of money as entrepreneurial investors pulled investments to maintain their businesses afloat in a frigid backdrop for IPOs and individual financing. The bank’s collapse was the biggest since the financial meltdown of 2008 and the second-largest commercial catastrophe in American history. By confirming the “Silicon Valley Bank” stock price data, we will delve further into the actual condition of whether there has been any data morphing in the data put forward by the Silicon Valley Bank. To accomplish the very same, we applied a very well-known statistical paradigm, Benford’s Law and have cross-validated the results using comparable statistics, like Zipf’s Law, to corroborate the findings. Benford’s Law has several temporal proximities, known as conformal ranges, which provide a closer examination of the extent of data morphing that has occurred in the data presented by the various organizations. In this research for validating the stock price data, we have considered the opening, closing, and highest prices of stocks for a time frame of 36 years, between 1987 and 2023. Though it is worth mentioning that the data used for this research are coarse-grained, still since the validation is subjected to a larger time horizon of 36 years; Benford’s Law and the similar statistics used in this article can point out any irregularities, which can result in some insight into the situation and into whether there has been any data morphing in the Stock Price data presented by SVB or not. This research has clearly shown that the stock price variations of the SVB diverge much from the permissible ranges, which can give a conclusive direction on further investigations in this issue by the responsible authorities. In addition, readers of this article must note that the conclusion formed about the topic discussed in this article is objective and entirely based on statistical analysis and factual figures presented by the Silicon Valley Bank Group.

Abstract:
Food insecurity is a pervasive problem in the United States and it is particularly acute in high cost areas. This study focuses on the diets and food expenditures of food bank clients in two Northern California counties located in what is commonly known as Silicon Valley. The results indicate that the study group spent 27% more than the federal government’s Thrifty Food Plan, but consumed a lower amount of fruits, vegetables, protein, and dairy than what is needed for a healthy diet. Policies that encourage better nutrition and more balanced diets at affordable prices and which take into account the living and transportation situations of food insecure populations are needed to address these issues.

Abstract:
Corruption influences firm behavior and performance even in relatively transparent countries like the United States. In this paper, we examine whether corruption at the state level affected bank failures during the subprime mortgage crisis. Our measure of corruption is the number of corruption convictions of government employees (adjusted for population) based on the Public Integrity Section (PIN) reports from the Department of Justice, capturing the degree of “public corruption” in the US. After disaggregating the data based on bank size and geography, we find that corruption is associated with more bank failures for smaller banks and fewer bank failures for banks located in the South. This research marks a pioneering attempt to examine the connection between corruption and bank failures while underscoring the significance of political risk for financial institutions. Given the recent setbacks experienced by Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank, and First Republic Bank, this research provides valuable recommendations for policymakers. The findings suggest the need for regulators to mandate greater transparency regarding banks’ exposure to undisclosed risks, such as political risk. It also advocates for implementing internal control mechanisms to curb corrupt activities.

Abstract:
Newly emerging cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology present a challenging research problem in the field of digital politics and economics. Bitcoin—the first widely implemented cryptocurrency and blockchain architecture—seemingly separates itself from the existing territorial boundedness of nation-state money via a process of algorithmic decentralisation. Proponents declare that the utilisation of cryptography to advance financial transactions will disrupt the modern centralised structures by which capitalist economies are currently organised: corporations, governments, commercial banks, and central banks. Allegedly, software can create a more stable and democratic global economy; a world free from hierarchy and control. In Money Code Space, Jack Parkin debunks these utopian claims by approaching distributed ledger technologies as a spatial and social problem where power forms unevenly across their networks. First-hand accounts of online communities, open-source software governance, infrastructural hardware operations, and Silicon Valley start-up culture are used to ground understandings of cryptocurrencies in the “real world.” Consequently, Parkin demonstrates how Bitcoin and other blockchains are produced across a multitude of tessellated spaces from which certain stakeholders exercise considerable amounts of power over their networks. While money, code, and space are certainly transformed by distributed ledgers, algorithmic decentralisation is rendered inherently paradoxical because it is predicated upon centralised actors, practices, and forces.

Abstract:
In Making Sexual Stewards, Jade S. Sasser explores how a small network of international development actors, including private donors, NGO program managers, scientists, and youth advocates is bringing population back to the center of public environmental debate. With an increasing focus on climate change coming to dominate news media and international development circles, population advocates have harnessed an opportunity to reframe population growth as an urgent source of climate crisis, and a unique opportunity to support women’s sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) via funding international family planning policy. Making Sexual Stewards follows the network through a diverse range of sites—from Silicon Valley foundation headquarters to youth advocacy trainings, the halls of Congress and an international climate change conference—to investigate how the new population advocacy is constructed and circulated, while drawing on longstanding development narratives linking population growth to environmental scarcity and geopolitical instability. Sasser argues that this advocacy revolves around framing the sexual steward: a neoliberal development subject sitting at the nexus of discourses linking scientific knowledge production, creative donor advocacy, and youthful advocacy focused on global social justice.

Abstract:
How did China's mass manufacturing and “copycat” production become transformed, in the global tech imagination, from something holding the nation back to one of its key assets? This book offers a rich transnational analysis of how the promise of democratized innovation and entrepreneurial life has shaped China's governance and global image. The book reveals how a growing distrust in Western models of progress and development, including Silicon Valley and the tech industry after the financial crisis of 2007–8, shaped the rise of the global maker movement and the vision of China as a “new frontier” of innovation. The book draws on research in experimental work spaces in China, the United States, Africa, Europe, Taiwan, and Singapore, as well as in key sites of technology investment and industrial production. It examines how the ideals of the maker movement, to intervene in social and economic structures, served the technopolitical project of prototyping a “new” optimistic, assertive, and global China. In doing so, the book demonstrates that entrepreneurial living influences governance, education, policy, investment, and urban redesign in ways that normalize the persistence of sexism, racism, colonialism, and labor exploitation. The book shows that by attending to the bodies and sites that nurture entrepreneurial life, technology can be extricated from the seemingly endless cycle of promise and violence.

Abstract Whereas twenty years ago the financing of local economic development was a combination of direct government spending and community lending by banks, pension funds are seen by many as the only institutions capable of filling the gaps left by the retreat of the state and first order intermediaries.1 In this respect, it could be argued that pension funds have, in effect, promoted US regional economic development. See Black and Gilson (1997) and Gilson (1998) on the significance of pension fund investment in high-risk low-cap stocks and initial public offerings for the development of Silicon Valley. Venture capital firms, in particular, have relied upon the positive and reinforcing agglomeration economies evident in the Silicon Valley innovation process to capture and sustain high rates of return.

Abstract Whereas in impurity bands in crystalline semiconductors the environment in which the electrons move is known a priori, in amorphous semiconductors this is not so. Our understanding of their electrical behaviour depends both on the rules for the motion of electrons deduced from the theories and experiments described in previous chapters, and on investigations of their structure. We shall discuss in this chapter some of the more important non¬ crystalline semiconductors and in Chapter 9 materials with large values of the band gap, such as vitreous silicon dioxide and oxide glasses. We must distinguish between materials that can be formed by rapid cooling from the melt, such as vitreous Si02 and certain of the chalcogenide glasses, and those that cannot, such as amorphous silicon and germanium.t In the latter, the coordination number is the same as that in the crystal, namely four, but in the melt it is larger, and the liquids are metallic, with properties similar to those of liquid lead. Amorphous silicon and germanium can therefore be prepared only by deposition from some gaseous phase, for instance in a glow discharge, or by bombarding the crystals with fast ions.

Abstract:
This chapter explores the attributes that help make local environments conducive to productive economic behavior. Several attributes are explored, beginning with integrity in local government and a short history of corruption and urban mismanagement in America, New Orleans serving as an instructive example. New Orleans’s sad story takes us back to Louisiana’s early history, the issue of race never far from the surface. The chapter also describes how the roots of Silicon Valley’s success go back to the California Gold Rush, helping to shape a unique institutional environment that promoted innovation. As the chapter explains, the unlikely success of Minneapolis-St. Paul, both peripheral and cold, can be traced back to Minnesota’s first settlers. Many of these early settlers were Scandinavian who traditionally placed a high value on education and work. Primary and secondary education matter as much, and often more, than PhDs. A competent and numerically literate workforce is at the core of many small and midsized urban success stories.

Social media has shifted the terrain for journalism, and offers platforms for counter-narratives, alternative views, and broader expertise. In Chapter 2, we focus on the social media response in three specific cases: (1) two separate trials for the murders of two Indigenous youth, Colten Boushie and Tina Fontaine, in central Canada, in which the two white men accused in their homicides were acquitted within a month of each other in early 2018; (2) the 2015 civil trial and discrimination case brought by Ellen Pao, a Silicon Valley venture capitalist, who was forced out of her job; (3) a 2016 #MeToo related moment in which writer Kelly Oxford asked women to share their stories through #notokay. In all three cases, we find a “battle for the story” that plays out in a range of ways from a refusal to participate, to talking back and resisting journalism’s habit of “hoarding the mic.”

Abstract:
This chapter examines a different, but equally tantalizing, option of trying to “bring back” traditional manufacturing and the high-paying production-line jobs that disappeared from many areas decades ago. To analyze the practicality of this strategy, the chapter explores recent changes in the global production landscape that are the result of digitization and other trends. What happened to the vertical manufacturers of yesteryear? How does innovation translate to growth in a globalizing world? To make those changes less abstract and more concrete, the chapters utilizes a few historical case studies. First, it examines the history of the rise and fall of innovation manufacturing in Michigan and Pennsylvania; then it looks at the brief success (and long and bitter decline) of the “high-end manufacturing” stars of the 1990s: Elk Grove, California, and Colorado Springs, Colorado. After effectively killing the two current deadly street drugs of Silicon Valley and Make America Great Again, the chapter leads the reader to appreciate other (and better) choices by moving away from the binary framing of innovation/manufacturing and back to the world of fragmented production, but this time armed with a new point view.

Abstract:
The name azote, proposed by Lavoisier and his colleagues, did not gain wide acceptance; nitrogen, meaning ‘nitre-former’, is the name now familiar to us. Modern chemists understand ‘nitre’ to mean ‘potassium nitrate’, one of the key ingredients of gunpowder, containing the elements potassium, oxygen, and nitrogen. However, although it dates back to antiquity, the name nitre initially referred to a completely different compound containing no nitrogen at all. It is the Latinized name, natrium, derived from this original use, that gives us the modern chemical symbol Na, for the element Humphry Davy named sodium. Travellers to modern-day northern Egypt may find themselves in a region known as the Nitrian Desert, or the Natron Valley—Wadi El Natrun. Here, ancient Egyptians would collect crude salt mixtures from certain lakes and use them for a variety of purposes, such as cleaning, making glass, embalming, and the preparation of medicines. The Egyptian word for the salt may be written ‘nṭry’ or ‘ntr’ (‘neter’), and it has survived for over three thousand years through variations including ‘neter’ (Hebrew), ‘nitron’ (Greek), ‘nitrum’(Latin), and more modern modifications ‘nether’, ‘niter’, ‘nitre’, ‘natrun’, and ‘natron’. Bartholomeus Anglicus, the thirteenth-century monk and author of De proprietatibus rerum (‘On the Properties of Things’), quotes Isidore of Seville from five hundred years earlier saying: ‘Nitrum hath ye name of the countrey of Nitria that is in Aegypt. Thereof is medicine made, & there with bodies and clothes be cleansed and washed.’ Whether the salt was actually named after the region or vice versa is not clear. Although its composition varied enormously, what distinguished nitre from common salt was the presence of significant proportions of sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate (sodium hydrogen carbonate). In addition to these carbonates, analyses of ancient samples, including that used in the embalming of the pharaoh Tutankhamun, who died in 1352 BC, also reveal large proportions of common salt (sodium chloride), sodium sulfate, and silica (silicon dioxide), with smaller proportions of calcium and magnesium carbonates and other minor impurities.

Full text
Abstract:
Silicon carbide formed by chemical vapor deposition is a promising material to use for lightweight, low-scatter mirrors. It can be made optically dense with a minimum of growth defects and stress birefringence, and it can be polished to a low-scatter finish that is comparable to the best high-quality fused-silica optics. Roughness values of 0.3 Å rms have been measured on a Zygo heterodyne profiler and under 1 Å rms on a Talystep mechanical-contact profiler. The optical constants measured in the wavelength range from 1.6–25 μm show that there is a reststrahlen band in the 10–13μm region and that the reflectance exceeds 94% at 12 μm. Total integrated scattering (TTS) at 0.647 μm can be as low as 1 × 10−6, corresponding to an rms roughness of 5.2 Å. Bidirectional-reflectance distribution function (BRDF) values of less than 5 × 10−6 at a scattering angle of 10 from the specular direction and approximately 3 × 10−6 at 25–80° from the specular direction have been measured at 0.633 μm. The integrated BRDF values yield a roughness in good agreement with that measured by TIS. These BRDF values are approximately 11 orders of magnitude down from the intensity of the specular beam. Data measured on silicon carbide samples from different sources and polished by different companies will be shown.

Abstract:
This paper deals with the theory, fabrication and characterization of micro diaphragm pumps with active valves. Three types of micropumps with piezoelectric actuation are presented. Special emphasis is given on the accordance of theory and experiment. The theory is based on a lumped-element approach that is reduced to its basics to enable a reasonable accuracy with a minimized set of conceptional parameters. The experimental results fit well to the theory. The fabrication technology of the micropumps comprises of a silicon bulk micromechanics process in combination with a back-end gluing process of piezoelectric PZT-disks (PZT lead-circonat-titanat) to the silicon diaphragms. The micropumps were developed for different applications. The three- and the four-diaphragm micropumps were designed as high performance drivers for an artificial sphincter prosthesis. They show a maximum flowrate of 4 ml/min and a maximum sustainable backpressure of up to 70 kPa. The two-diaphragm micropump was engineered for an implantable drug delivery device and features a pressure independent dosing for backpressures up to 20 kPa.

Abstract:
Abstract Wide variations in the dose enhancement factor observed when milling silicon using Focused Ion Beam (FIB) XeF2 Gas Assisted Etching (GAE) prompted the development of a simple model of the GAE process. The model accounts for three material removal mechanisms: regular sputtering; gas-assisted sputtering; and spontaneous chemical reactions. An expression linking the dose enhancement factor, εd, to the gas and milling parameters has been derived. Experiments show that εd behaves as predicted; good quantitative agreement is achieved over wide ranges of milling parameters for εd values between 20X and 2500X. Conditions required to minimize variations in d and maximize material removal rates, M, are derived. It is shown that if the dose per unit area per raster is below a threshold value then εd and M depend only on the average current density J (the area of the box divided by the beam current). A consideration of the J regimes used for front-side and back-side FIB work shows why changes in εd have not previously been a problem but are inevitable when milling the large trenches characteristics of Flip Chip circuit modification work. While εd changes dramatically there is a region of J values for which M is approximately constant.

Abstract:
A method to fabricate nano channels narrower than 50nm without the need for any nano lithography is presented. The nano channels are formed by cracking a thin film of silicon dioxide on a silicon substrate by residual stress alone. However, for controlled initiation of cracks on oxide, stress raisers are planted on a silicon substrate by deep RIE. These channels are used to study capillary driven fluid flow through nanochannels. Experimental analysis suggests that the flow rate is inversely proportional to the square root of time, which is in agreement with the theoretical model. From the theoretical plot that fits the experimental data the value of the proportionality constant is determined. From this value it is possible to back calculate the meniscus contact angle if we know the surface energy of the fluid or vice versa.

Abstract:
A single walled carbon nanotube, which adsorbed water molecule in its nano channel, was observed using Raman spectroscopy, and two samples’ spectrums were compared under the same conditions. The SWNT samples that were vertically aligned on the silicon substrate were used. One of the samples was not covered by polymer whereas the other sample was covered by polymer. In our experiment, a nano channel was made using a nanosecond pulse laser (Nd:YAG laser). In order to adjust the focus, the sample was set on the automatic stage and controlled on the PC using a USB camera to watch closely. By moving the stage for over 30 seconds, the sample was processed to make the nano channel. The cell with the laser-processed sample in it was set on the Raman spectroscopy’s platform. Then, the cell was connected to the vacuum chamber and erlenmeyer flask by the valve. Both of the valves were opened first and left for a while to make the cell vacuum. Second, the vacuum chamber’s valve was closed and left for a while to let water molecule spread in the cell. Finally, the SWNT successfully adsorbed water molecule in its nano channel. Ar-ion laser was used in the Raman spectroscopy and the laser wavelength is 488nm. With the Raman spectroscopy, Radial Breathing Mode (RBM), D-band, and G-band were mainly observed. The RBM, D-band, and G-band originated from radial vibration frequency, defective structure, and graphite structure respectively. According to the sample types, the RBM spectrums were compared in our experiment.

Abstract:
Events such as the failure and rescue of Credit Suisse and the fallout of Silicon Valley Bank re-surfaces the old saying that prudential regulators should always favor banking concentration to improve financial stability, putting monetary authorities in opposition to competition authorities. In this paper, we want to switch gears and propose a framework to analyze monetary authorities' role in fostering competition. Then, we go through the case study of Brazil's financial system regulators and compare them with Brazil's competition authority's role and the importance of inter-agency cooperation.

Abstract:
I. Desempeño de los establecimientos de crédito • Los establecimientos de crédito en Colombia cuentan con altos niveles de capital y adecuados indicadores de liquidez que les permitirían enfrentar la materialización de diversos riesgos. Por su parte, la rentabilidad ha mostrado una tendencia decreciente desde mediados de 2022. • El crédito ha reducido su ritmo de crecimiento en los últimos meses después de mostrar ritmos de expansión muy altos, al tiempo que se ha observado una mayor mora en la cartera. Esta dinámica se explica principalmente por la modalidad de consumo y podría continuar durante el primer semestre de 2023. II. Ejercicios de sensibilidad relacionados con el colapso del Silicon Valley Bank • El colapso de algunos bancos externos no tuvo impacto directo sobre las entidades financieras locales. • Algunas características que protegen al sistema financiero colombiano son: i) una estructura de balance conservadora tanto por el lado activo como por el lado pasivo de las entidades, ii) la práctica generalizada de valoración del portafolio de inversión a precios de mercado, y iii) la adecuada administración del riesgo de liquidez. III. Exposición del sistema financiero a los hogares • El endeudamiento de los hogares permanece en niveles cercanos a los máximos históricos. • El ahorro de los hogares se ha recuperado, pero permanece por debajo de los niveles pre-pandemia. Los hogares cuentan con recursos líquidos suficientes para cubrir las obligaciones de corto plazo. • De mantenerse una senda de crecimiento bajo de la cartera, se podría esperar una disminución en la relación de deuda a ingreso. IV. Exposición del sistema financiero al sector corporativo • Los indicadores de riesgo de crédito de la cartera comercial se ubican en niveles bajos. Se observa un leve deterioro para ciertos sectores. • Por otro lado, la mayoría de la deuda en moneda extranjera del sector corporativo cuenta con mecanismos de mitigación del riesgo cambiario. V. Instituciones financieras no bancarias • La rentabilidad de las instituciones financieras no bancarias ha mostrado una recuperación, aunque permanece por debajo de los valores pre-pandemia. • Los fondos de inversión colectiva abiertos sin pacto de permanencia han mostrado caídas en sus indicadores de liquidez en los últimos meses, pero estos permanecen muy por encima de los mínimos regulatorios. VI. Ejercicios de estrés Evalúa la resiliencia de los establecimientos de crédito en un escenario hipotético adverso, extremo y poco probable que considera los siguientes elementos: I. Caída significativa de los términos de intercambio: Reducción persistente del precio de petróleo. II. Mayor percepción de riesgo país, fuerte contracción de la demanda interna y aumento del desempleo. III. Se considera la liquidación gradual de un porcentaje del portafolio de deuda pública de inversionistas extranjeros. IV. Se tienen en cuenta los riesgos de: crédito, mercado, tasa de interés, fondeo, liquidez y riesgo de contagio. V. Se contempla un deterioro especialmente grande de la cartera de ciertos sectores y deudores. • Además, se incluyen dos ejercicios de estrés adicionales: i) sobre los establecimientos de crédito con estados financieros consolidados y que tienen subsidiaras en Centroamérica y ii) ejercicio de sensibilidad que evalúa la capacidad de los fondos de inversión colectiva abiertos sin pacto de permanencia para enfrentar escenarios extremos de retiros masivos. • Los resultados del ejercicio sobre la solvencia de los establecimientos de crédito sugieren que el sistema a nivel agregado tiene la suficiente capacidad patrimonial para absorber pérdidas extremas. • Por su parte, los fondos de inversión colectiva abiertos sin pacto de permanencia reducirían sus indicadores de liquidez ante choques de retiros masivos, aunque permanecerían por encima de los límites regulatorios.
