摘要
Based on first-principles calculation, we investigated the photoelectric properties of Al0.5Ga0.5N nanowire with different diameters (3.7 angstrom, 7.5 angstrom, 9.3 angstrom). As calculated, Al0.5Ga0.5N nanostructure with 9.3 angstrom is the most stable (E-form = -2.43 eV) and has the smallest work function (phi = 6.20 eV). With the increase of diameter, the band gap (E-g) gradually decreases (from 6.569 eV to 5.427 eV). Meanwhile, the surface work function decreases linearly, indicating that photons are more easier to escape. What's more, the peak values of the basic optical properties all increase and move toward the higher-energy direction.
