Abstract Growing an InxGa1− xN/GaN (InGaN/GaN) multi‐quantum well (MQW)
heterostructure in nanowire (NW) form is expected to overcome limitations inherent in light …

We investigated curbing the defects and stress/strain in epitaxially grown crystalline GaN
films on a metal–organic chemical vapor deposition-GaN/c-sapphire (MGcS) template by …

This chapter examines strains and stresses in semiconductor nanowires, why they occur,
how they manifest themselves, how they can be calculated and measured, and also how …

Integrated heterostructures with a nanocolumn morphology of the film In x Ga 1-x N were
grown using the method of molecular beam epitaxy, with plasm activation of nitrogen on a …

We present a micro-Raman study of InP/InGaP tandem junction photovoltaic nanowires.
These nanowires render possible InGaP compositions that cannot be made in thin films due …

The interplay between strain and composition is at the basis of heterostructure design to
engineer new properties. The influence of the strain distribution on the incorporation of …

By using ordered fine nanocolumns suitable for high-efficiency red-emission, emission
enhancement based on surface plasmon polariton (SPP) coupling was successfully …

A key to strain engineering of piezoelectric semiconductor devices is the quantitative
assessment of the strain‐charge relationship. This is particularly demanding in current …
