High-temperature growth of GaN nanowires by molecular beam epitaxy: toward the materials quality of bulk GaN

J. K. Zettler, C. Hauswald, P. Corfdir +5

In molecular beam epitaxy, the spontaneous formation of GaN nanowires on Si(111) substrates at elevated temperatures is limited by the long incubation time that precedes nanowire n…

Observation of dielectrically confined excitons in ultrathin GaN nanowires up to room temperature

Johannes K. Zettler, Pierre Corfdir, Christian Hauswald +10

The realization of semiconductor structures with stable excitons at room temperature is crucial for the development of excitonics and polaritonics. Quantum confinement has commonly…

Nature of excitons bound to inversion domain boundaries: Origin of the 3.45-eV luminescence lines in spontaneously formed GaN nanowires on Si(111)

Carsten Pfüller, Pierre Corfdir, Christian Hauswald +9

We investigate the 3.45-eV luminescence band of spontaneously formed GaN nanowires on Si(111) by photoluminescence and cathodoluminescence spectroscopy. This band is found to be pa…

Correlation between the structural and optical properties of spontaneously formed GaN nanowires: a quantitative evaluation of the impact of nanowire coalescence

S. Fernández-Garrido, V. M. Kaganer, C. Hauswald +5

We investigate the structural and optical properties of spontaneously formed GaN nanowires with different degrees of coalescence. This quantity is determined by an analysis of the…

Sub-meV linewidth in GaN nanowire ensembles: absence of surface excitons due to the field-ionization of donors

Pierre Corfdir, Johannes K. Zettler, Christian Hauswald +3

We observe unusually narrow donor-bound exciton transitions (0.4 meV) in the photoluminescence spectra of GaN nanowire ensembles grown on Si(111) substrates at very high (> 850 deg…
