In order to understand dependence of the electronic band structures and density of states on nanowire diameters and shapes, we consider BN nanowires with various diameters in the [001] growth direction. Our results reveal that the effect of changing diameter on electronic properties plays an important role and the band gap can be tuned by changing the wire diameter. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd.
