The Securitization of Minerals in the EU: Why Europe is Not Immune to the Resource Curse
This article examines how access to mineral raw materials in the EU has been transformed through a process of securitization over the last two decades. What was once mainly a matter of economic policy and trade has been reframed—through narratives constructed by industrial lobbies and political allies—as an existential issue for European security and survival.

Weak signals of the Venezuela war
Like Russia’s frontline blood banks, the Venezuelan bond trade signalled that the preceding furore was headed in a specific direction. And in the increasingly chaotic, ill-defined mess of multipolar politics and climate chaos, reliably finding which ‘weak signals’ matter—and which signals are just noise—will be vital for navigating what comes next.

A breakthrough for solar durability: UNSW researchers discovered that thicker aluminum oxide layers protect TOPCon solar cells from UV damage by blocking hydrogen migration.
The culprit? High-energy UV photons break chemical bonds, releasing hydrogen that degrades performance. But 7nm AlOx layers act as an effective barrier.

Thicker alumunium oxide layers can reduce ultraviolet-induced degradation in TOPCon solar cells
UNSW researchers developed an experimentally validated model linking UV-induced degradation in TOPCon solar cells to hydrogen transport, charge trapping, and permanent structural changes in the passivation stack. They show that thicker aluminum oxide layers significantly improve UV resilience by limiting hydrogen migration, offering clear guidance for more robust TOPCon designs.
