摘要
H3PO4, NaOH, and KOH solutions are found to be useful for removing nitrogen depleted layers or damage induced by high temperature annealing or dry etching of metalorganic chemical vapor deposition-grown (0001)GaN/Al2O3. Solutions are selective to the (0001)plane of GaN. However, certain flat planes etched without etch pits are exposed by wet etching.
