Using first-principles methods, we investigate the structural and electronic properties of SiGe nanowires-based heterostructures, whose lattice contains the same number of Si and Ge atoms but arranged in a different manner. Our results demonstrate that the wires with a clear interface between Si and Ge regions not only form the most stable structures but show a strongly reduced quantum confinement effect. Moreover, we, with the inclusion of many-body effects, prove that these nanowires—under optical excitation—display a clear electron-hole separation property which can have relevant technological applications.
CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic
(which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments.
It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions.
The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager
like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
