In this contribution, we implement a self-consistent procedure for the solution of the Poisson-Schrodinger modelapplied here for the analysis of coupled effects in wide bandgap wurtzite heterostructures. Such effects are demonstrated on examples for three-layer systems, in particular AlN/GaN quantum well heterojunctions, which are promising components in a number of optoelectronic device applications. A major emphasis is given to the effects of boundary conditions, piezoelectricity and spontaneous polarization.
Keywords: Poisson-Schrodinger model self-consistent solution, effects of boundary conditions, low dimensional nanostructures.
