In this paper, electronic and optical properties of GaN/InN core/shell nanowires (CSNWs) have been theoretically investigated through the first principles calculations. The binding energy of In and N atoms on surface of six crystal planes along the [Formula: see text]-axis of GaN nanowires are all negative, which indicate that In and N atoms can be effectively deposited on the surface of GaN nanowires and preparing GaN/InN CSNWs is feasible theoretically. Calculation results of electronic properties indicate that the core/shell ratio and diameter of GaN/InN CSNWs have significant effect on the band structure, bandgap can be effectively adjusted when keeping the number of GaN layers unchanged and changing the number of InN layers. Moreover, with the increase in the number of InN layers, the absorption spectrum of GaN/InN CSNW has significant redshift and few weak absorption peaks appear in the visible light region.

The structural stabilities and electronic properties of passivated and unpassivated SiC / AlN core/shell nanowires (CSNWs) along [0001] direction are investigated by using first-principles calculations with density functional theory. Our calculations demonstrate that thick AlN shell and small ratio of SiC core make the SiC / AlN CSNWs more stable. The band gaps decrease with the increasing of the CSNWs diameters. After passivation at the surface, type of SiC / AlN heterostructure changes and the mobility can be improved by increasing the CSNWs diameter and the SiC core ratio. These results provide an effective way to modulate the electronic properties of SiC / AlN structure, which is useful for fabrications and applications of CSNWs.
