Filtering of Defects in Semipolar (11−22) GaN Using 2-Steps Lateral Epitaxial Overgrowth
نویسندگان
چکیده
Good-quality (11-22) semipolar GaN sample was obtained using epitaxial lateral overgrowth. The growth conditions were chosen to enhance the growth rate along the [0001] inclined direction. Thus, the coalescence boundaries stop the propagation of basal stacking faults. The faults filtering and the improvement of the crystalline quality were attested by transmission electron microscopy and low temperature photoluminescence. The temperature dependence of the luminescence polarization under normal incidence was also studied.

Self-assembled Multilayers of Silica Nanospheres for Defect Reduction in Non- and Semipolar Gallium Nitride Epitaxial Layers
Non- and semipolar GaN have great potential to improve the efficiency of light emitting devices due to much reduced internal electric fields. However, heteroepitaxial GaN growth in these crystal orientations suffers from very high dislocation and stacking faults densities. Here, we report a facile method to obtain low defect density non- and semipolar heteroepitaxial GaN via selective area epit...

متن کاملEpitaxial lateral overgrowth of GaN over AlOx surface formed on Si substrate
An approach by which single crystal a-GaN can be grown laterally over oxidized AlAs (AlOx) formed on Si substrates is demonstrated. Regular a-Ga2-O3 stripe templates, spatially separated by AlOx , on which subsequent GaN growth is selectively seeded are formed. Since the boundary between the stripe template and AlOx is nominally planar, two pyramidal planes on separated GaN can merge by growing...
متن کاملImprovement of light output power of InGaN/GaN light-emitting diode by lateral epitaxial overgrowth using pyramidal-shaped SiO(2).
We report on the improvement of light output power of InGaN/GaN blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs) by lateral epitaxial overgrowth (LEO) of GaN using a pyramidal-shaped SiO(2) mask. The light output power was increased by 80% at 20 mA of injection current compared with that of conventional LEDs without LEO structures. This improvement is attributed to an increased internal quantum efficiency by ...
متن کاملA partly-contacted epitaxial lateral overgrowth method applied to GaN material
We have discussed a new crystal epitaxial lateral overgrowth (ELO) method, partly-contacted ELO (PC-ELO) method, of which the overgrowth layer partly-contacts with underlying seed layer. The passage also illustrates special mask structures with and without lithography and provides three essential conditions to achieve the PC-ELO method. What is remarkable in PC-ELO method is that the tilt angle...
