Women's paid work and moral economies of care

Female labour force participation has been increasing in recent decades, in part encouraged by state policies to raise the employment rate to encourage economic competitiveness and combat social exclusion. Social provision for care, however, has lagged behind this increase, creating practical and moral dilemmas for individuals and for society, facing parents with complex choices about how to combine work and care. In this paper, we draw on a qualitative study in London to explore the extent to which the large-scale entry of women into waged work is altering women's understandings of their duties and responsibilities to care for others. We conclude that their decisions are influenced by class position, entrenched gender inequalities in the labour market, varying abilities to pay for care and complex gendered understandings of caring responsibilities

Hydrostatic pressure and electric field effects on the normalized binding energy in asymmetrical quantum wells

We have investigated the simultaneous effects of the hydrostatic pressure and electric field on the ground subband level and on normalized binding energy of an on-center donor in asymmetrical GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells within the effective-mass approximation and a variational approach. We found that the well size at which the impurity energy changes from positive to negative value (turning point) strongly depends on the asymmetry and hydrostatic pressure. As a key result, we suggest that the study of the normalized binding energy for various values of the electric field in direct and inverse polarization regimes can be used to feel the quantum well asymmetry and to unambiguously find out the effective pressure acting on a given heterostructure
