Effect of High Temperature AlN Buffer on Anisotropy of Semipolar (11-22) GaN with two pressure growth stages
2019
The low-temperature GaN (LT-GaN) and high-temperature AlN (HT-AlN) buffer layers were grown on m-plane sapphire by metal–organic chemical vapour deposition. The following semi-polar (11-22) GaN thin films were deposited under high- and low-pressure growth stages. Anisotropy of (11-22) GaN grown on HT-AlN buffer along two in-planar directions ([11-2-3] and [-1100]) were clearly suppressed, the maximum variation of the X-ray rocking curve full width at half maximum of (11-22) GaN on LT-GaN buffer was 0.2498°, that of (11-22) GaN on HT-AlN buffer was 0.0488°. The X-ray diffraction results of on-axis and off-axis both indicated that the crystal quality of the epitaxial GaN layer with HT-AlN buffer was obviously improved, and surface morphology was much smoother.
