摘要
We report results of theoretical calculations for optical properties and electronic conductivity for a 6H-SiC polytype nanowire with a single crystalline structure. The optical spectra show allowed transitions in the visible range. The current versus voltage (IV) results found are qualitatively similar to the experimental IV curves for SiC nanowires reported.
