COMPARATIVE STUDY REGARDING THE EVOLUTIN OF PRIVATE PENSION FUNDS IN ROMANIA (SECOND PILLOR)

The goal of this paper is to present the basic characteristics of the Romanian private pension system as well as its evolution during a period of 43 weeks from 20th June 2008 to 10th March 2009. The paper begins by describing the legal work frame of the sPrivate pension, pension funds, yield, future value.

Quantum transport through MoS2_2 constrictions defined by photodoping

We present a device scheme to explore mesoscopic transport through molybdenum disulfide (MoS$_2$) constrictions using photodoping. The devices are based on van-der-Waals heterostructures where few-layer MoS$_2$ flakes are partially encapsulated by hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) and covered by a few-layer graphene flake to fabricate electrical contacts. Since the as-fabricated devices are insulating at low temperatures, we use photo-induced remote doping in the hBN substrate to create free charge carriers in the MoS$_2$ layer. On top of the device, we place additional metal structures, which define the shape of the constriction and act as shadow masks during photodoping of the underlying MoS$_2$/hBN heterostructure. Low temperature two- and four-terminal transport measurements show evidence of quantum confinement effects.Comment: 9 pages, 6 figure
