Group III-nitride (III-N) nanostructures, such as quantum dots, nanowires (NWs) and nanowire heterostructures (NWHs) are a current topic of intense research. Part of these activities is motivated by the possibility of realizing novel, nanoscaled optoelectronic devices with improved stability and efficiency or the perspective of realizing novel optochemical nanosensors.

We review the growth and structural properties of III-N NWs and NWHs and discuss the relation of their structural characteristics and optical properties. Here, GaN nanodiscs embedded in AlGaN/GaN NWs present an ideal model system to study the influence of confinement, internal electric fields and mechanical strain gradients.

We also discuss the photoluminescence response of III-N NWs and NWHs upon exposure to oxidizing and reducing gases as well as the photoelectrochemical properties of III-N nanostructures in electrolyte solutions.
