Abstract
The strains in rolled InAs/GaAs heterostructures of nanometer sizes are calculated. It is shown that the strain distributions in nanotubes (structures with coherently bounded rolls) and nanoscrolls are essentially different, resulting in different energy spectra of the charge carriers. Photogenerated electrons and holes in nanotubes can be spatially separated across the wall width.
