Modeling of nanowire polarization and numerical calculation of alignment rate versus AC frequency of a silicon nanowire of L = 10μm and r = 250 nm. a Model of a silicon nanowire as a cylinder with length L and radius r. An Oxidation shell with thickness Δdox = 1 nm is considered, shown as the dark shade surrounding the nanowire. b Numerical calculation of alignment rate of nanowires of different electrical conductivities versus AC frequency. Inset: zoom-in image at frequencies with negative alignment rates.
