Thus far, even where workforce planning models account for changes in physician workforce demographics (such as feminization), they commonly apply a simplistic calculus, using simple service or headcounts, or assuming the work of a female physician as a fixed proportion of a male physician (typically using full-time equivalent measures) [ 14, 15].
Assuming the work function of the In2O3 is 5.0 eV [30], β values of the In2O3 nanoneedles, nanohooks, nanorods, and nanotowers are estimated to be 3,695, 1,770, 1,374, and 458, respectively.
Assuming the work function of bulk ZnO to be 5.3 eV, the estimated β of the samples A, B, and C are 1209.5, 1566.7, and 1745.8, respectively.
Assuming the work function of graphene is 5 eV and the gap between the graphene sheet and the nanomanipulator tip is 1 μm, the estimated field-enhancement factor, β, is 3519.
We cannot therefore assume that the work of the London cell responsible, whatever and wherever it is, is done.
Motivated by a need to empirically test rather than assume the integrative work of ES, we ask: what ways of using the framework as a stakeholder tool are invited, and does integration unfold in practice?
