Abstract Coal plays a vital role in the socio-economic development of China. Yet, the spatial mismatch between production centers (inland Northwest) and consumption centers (coastal region) within China fostered the emergence of dedicated coal transport corridors with limited alternatives.

  • China's New Urbanization Strategy
    China’s New Urbanization Strategy Urbanization is one of the major challenges facing China. Of China’s 1.3 billion people, around half still live in rural areas. There has been huge migration from rural areas to cities in recent years, a trend that is likely to continue strongly for some time. The strains that this vast migration puts on China’s cities are enor- mous. This book makes available for the English-speaking reader the results of a large group of research projects undertaken by CDRF, one of China’s leading think tanks, into the details of rural–urban migration, the resulting urban growth and the associated problems. The book goes on to put forward a new strategy, which aims to ensure that China’s urbanization proceeds in an orderly manner and that people and their needs are put at the centre of the strategy. Key parts of the strategy include that ‘city clusters’ should become the main form of urbaniza- tion; that these should be arranged geographically in a pattern of ‘two horizontal lines and three vertical lines’; that industrial and employment structures should highlight regional features and diversity; that urban public services should be more equitably distributed; that there should be new forms of urbanization management and city governance to accelerate urbanization and ensure harmoni- ous social development; and that the whole process should be conducted in an ecological, ‘green’ way. China Development Research Foundation is one of the leading economic think tanks in China, where many of the details of China’s economic reform have been formulated.

  • Vertical Facility List
    Facility List The Walt Disney Company is committed to fostering safe, inclusive and respectful workplaces wherever Disney-branded products are manufactured. Numerous measures in support of this commitment are in place, including increased transparency. To that end, we have published this list of the roughly 7,600 facilities in over 70 countries that manufacture Disney-branded products sold, distributed or used in our own retail businesses such as The Disney Stores and Theme Parks, as well as those used in our internal operations. Our goal in releasing this information is to foster collaboration with industry peers, governments, non- governmental organizations and others interested in improving working conditions. Under our International Labor Standards (ILS) Program, facilities that manufacture products or components incorporating Disney intellectual properties must be declared to Disney and receive prior authorization to manufacture. The list below includes the names and addresses of facilities disclosed to us by vendors under the requirements of Disney’s ILS Program for our vertical business, which includes our own retail businesses and internal operations. The list does not include the facilities used only by licensees of The Walt Disney Company or its affiliates that source, manufacture and sell consumer products by and through independent entities. Disney’s vertical business comprises a wide range of product categories including apparel, toys, electronics, food, home goods, personal care, books and others. As a result, the number of facilities involved in the production of Disney-branded products may be larger than for companies that operate in only one or a limited number of product categories. In addition, because we require vendors to disclose any facility where Disney intellectual property is present as part of the manufacturing process, the list includes facilities that may extend beyond finished goods manufacturers or final assembly locations.

  • Current-Voltage Characteristics of Single Ingan/Gan Nanowire Leds
    Current-Voltage Characteristics of Single InGaN/GaN Nanowire LEDs Binh Huy Le, Shamsul Arafin, Nhung Hong Tran, Hieu Pham Trung Nguyen and Zetian Mi* Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, McGill University, 3480 University Street, Montreal, QC, H3A 2A7, Canada InGaN/GaN nanowire heterostructures have attracted considerable attention for applications in solid-state lighting. To date, however, there still lacks a detailed understanding of the surface states, defects and band-bending on the performance, including the electrical efficiency of such nanoscale LEDs.In this work, we have studied the current-voltage characteristics of single InGaN/GaN nanowires, wherein self-organized InGaN quantum dots are incorporated in the active region to achieve white-light emission. A significant enhancement of the current under forward bias is observed when the nanowire is illuminated under 405nm laser excitation, which is explained by leakage of photo-generated carriers from the dots and the reduction of the depletion region width of nanowires. Catalyst-free, vertically aligned InGaN/GaN dot-in-a-wire heterostructures were first grown on Si(111) substrates by radio frequency plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy under nitrogen rich conditions. The active region contains 10 vertically coupled InGaN/GaN quantum dots. The In compositions of the dots are varied from ~ 15% to 50% to achieve white-light emission. The nanowire diameter is ~100 nm. The nanowires were dispersed on pre-patterned substrate, and single-nanowire devices were fabricated using e-beam lithography and contact metallization. Their current-voltage characteristics were measured at various temperatures. Under optical excitation, a significant enhancement of the current, up to a factor of ~150 for a forward bias of 8 V at 300 K was measured.
