  • Abstract
    The piezoelectric effect in zincblende and wurtzite nanowires based on the full piezoelectric tensor following the continuum model has been studied analytically. Theoretical results present comparisons between piezoelectric potentials generated in wurtzite and zincblende nanowires which will serve as a guide for the proper design of future nanostructures in order to achieve maximum piezo-energy.
