摘要
Fluctuation of the crystal orientation of epitaxial-lateral-overgrown (ELO) GaN with a tungsten (W) mask is compared to that with a SiO2 mask by means of selected-area transmission electron diffraction (TED) and X-ray rocking curves (XRCs). XRCs of (0004) reflection exhibited three peaks for ELO-GaN on a SiO2 mask, and were confirmed to originate from domains of different c-axis orientation by TED. On the other hand, fluctuation of the c-axis was not observed for ELO-GaN with a W mask. These results indicate that the crystalline quality of ELO-GaN with a W mask is better than that with a SiO2 mask.
