Determination of Burgers-vector directions of threading edge dislocations in GaN by phase-contrast microscopy

Yukari Ishikawa, Maki Shimizu, Koji Sato +4

Phase-contrast microscopy enables rapid, nondestructive observation of threading dislocations in GaN, but the relationship between dislocation contrast and the Burgers vector has n…

Groove-shaped defects in as-grown (001)-oriented -GaO epilayers prepared by halide vapor phase epitaxy

Yongzhao Yao, Daiki Katsube, Hirotaka Yamaguchi +1

Groove-shaped defects (GSDs) degrade the surface flatness of as-grown (001)-oriented -GaO epilayers and necessitate chemical mechanical polishing before device fabricati…
