Fermi-level pinning can determine polarity in semiconductor nanorods
An explanation, in terms of electronic structure, was provided for stabilisation of dipole moments on nanorods. More detail and further work published in J. Phys.: Conf. Ser. 367 012002 (2012). This work led to invited seminars and talks at international conferences by Tangney, Hine, and Haynes, including Oxford Materials Modelling Lab Seminar (Tangney, 2010), TRNM 2010, Levi, Finland (Tangney), CECAM workshop, Lausanne (Tangney, 7/2012), CMCS2013, Hong Kong (Haynes), Volker Heine Young Investigator Award finalist invited talk, DPG 2013, Regensburg (Hine). It also led to a PhD student, funded through CDT on Theory and Simulation of Materials, studying TiO2 nanoparticles.
