Growth of compositionally uniform layers with low relaxation degree on GaN by molecular beam epitaxy
Jingxuan Kang, Mikel Gómez Ruiz, Duc Van Dinh +7
500-nm-thick layers with 0.05-0.14 are grown using plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy, and their properties are assessed by a…
Uniform large-area surface patterning achieved by metal dewetting for the top-down fabrication of GaN nanowire ensembles
Jingxuan Kang, Rose-Mary Jose, Miriam Oliva +6
The dewetting of thin Pt films on different surfaces is investigated as a means to provide the patterning for the top-down fabrication of GaN nanowire ensembles. The transformation…
ScN/GaN(): a new platform for the epitaxy of twin-free metal-semiconductor heterostructures
Philipp John, Achim Trampert, Duc Van Dinh +6
We study the molecular beam epitaxy of rock-salt ScN on the wurtzite GaN() surface. To this end, ScN is grown on free-standing GaN() substrates and self-ass…
Monitoring the formation of nanowires by line-of-sight quadrupole mass spectrometry: a comprehensive description of the temporal evolution of GaN nanowire ensembles
Sergio Fernández-Garrido, Johannes K. Zettler, Lutz Geelhaar +1
We use line-of-sight quadrupole mass spectrometry to monitor the spontaneous formation of GaN nanowires on Si during molecular beam epitaxy. We find that the temporal evolution of…
Self-regulated radius of spontaneously formed GaN nanowires in molecular beam epitaxy
Sergio Fernández-Garrido, Vladimir M. Kaganer, Karl K. Sabelfeld +5
We investigate the axial and radial growth of GaN nanowires upon a variation of the Ga flux during molecular beam epitaxial growth. An increase in the Ga flux promotes radial growt…
Spontaneous nucleation and growth of GaN nanowires: Fundamental role of crystal polarity
Sergio Fernández-Garrido, Xiang Kong, Tobias Gotschke +4
We experimentally investigate whether crystal polarity affects the growth of GaN nanowires in plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy and whether their formation has to be induced b…
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…
Molecular Beam Epitaxy of GaN Nanowires on Epitaxial Graphene
Sergio Fernández-Garrido, Manfred Ramsteiner, Guanhui Gao +10
We demonstrate an all-epitaxial and scalable growth approach to fabricate single-crystalline GaN nanowires on graphene by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. As substrate, we e…
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…
Polarity-induced selective area epitaxy of GaN nanowires
Ziani de Souza Schiaber, Gabriele Calabrese, Xiang Kong +6
We present a conceptually novel approach to achieve selective area epitaxy of GaN nanowires. The approach is based on the fact that these nanostructures do not form in plasma-assis…
