Atomistic study of surface effects on the electromechanical coupling of ZnO nanostructures
Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston University, 2013. === Zinc Oxide (ZnO) has been widely studied as a piezoelectric semiconductor. Since ZnO nanowires (NW) have recently been utilized experimentally as nanogenerators to harvest electrical energy resulting from mechanical deformation, its potential use in energ...
