Combining qualitative survey and in-depth field research, we present a new typology of corporate venture capital (CVC) designs that highlights a hybrid CVC structural orientation to advance understanding of the process of integrating externally generated innovation with the company’s internal innovation efforts. Based on our field study of JetBlue Technology Ventures, the paper provides insights into the interlocking multi-level managerial activities that relate hybrid CVC initiatives to the corporation’s mainstream operations. These insights also serve to compare how the hybrid CVC design enables effective interaction with the company’s internal innovation process to create enduring corporate strategic value with that of the other CVC designs.

Under forward bias SiC p-i-n diodes exhibit an anomaly enhancement of the partial dislocation mobility. Through first-principle calculations, we have shown that Peierls barriers and electrical activities are strongly dependent on the dislocation core structures. Further we have found that solitons or antiphase defects along the dislocation line cannot explain alone the enhancement of the dislocation velocity. We have proposed a new theoretical model that can explain the enhancement of the dislocation mobility under forward bias. This model can be applied to any semiconductor materials in order to predict the behaviour under electron-hole plasma injections
