Abstract By the fractal dimension method, the polaron properties in cylindrical GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs core-shell nanowire are explored. In this study, the polaron effects in GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs core-shell nanowire at different values of shell width and aluminum concentration are discussed. The polaron binding energy, polaron mass shift and fractal dimension parameter are numerically worked out each as a function of core radius. The calculation results show that the binding energy and mass shift of the polaron first increase and then decrease as the core radius increases, forming their corresponding maximum values for different aluminum concentrations at a given shell width. Polaron problems in the cylindrical GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs core-shell nanowire are solved simply by using the fractal dimension method to avoid complex and lengthy calculations.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
