Abstract
We study and compare optical microcavities formed by GaN planar
nanowires. Nanostructures with structural defects such as stacking faults
and without defects are considered. The behavior of an exciton localized
in a stacking fault is considered. Different behavior of the
photoluminescence intensity and the photoluminescence decay time is
observed for the cases under consideration. Theoretical calculations show
the localization of the field at the ends of the structure.
