As you suspect, geometry is the key. MicroParticles are optimum for producing dipole vibration. A 5 micron particle resonates at 400C and a 2 micron particle resonates at 1000C.
Holes accumulate on one side of such a particle and negative electrons on the other. Such charge separation does not easily happen on the extended surface of a semi conductor. This semi conductor geometry is not resonant. The nano dimensional ridges and peaks on the micro particles produce the vortexes.
