摘要
Pendeoepitaxy of GaN on sapphire substrate with SiO2 mask is demonstrated and characterized by transmission electron microscopy and double crystal x-ray diffraction. A continuous layer of GaN with low dislocation density was achieved by this method. Parts of the GaN layer are tilted symmetrically toward [11-20] direction and have two kinds of coalesce and tilt boundaries. Each boundary was formed by a vertical array of piled up dislocations with the Burger's vector of [11-20]. The tilting mechanism in pendeo-epitaxy is discussed in terms of surface interaction between the SiO2 mask and ELO-GaN. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physics. [S0003-6951(99)04552-0].
