Strain–Stress Analysis of AlGaN/GaN Heterostructures With and Without an AlN Buffer and Interlayer

Abstract: The strain-stress analysis of Al x Ga 1)x N/GaN (x = 0.3) heterostructures with and without a high-temperature HT-AlN interlayer (IL) grown on sapphire (Al 2 O 3 ) substrates and AlN buffer/Al 2 O 3 templates via metal organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD) was carried out based on the precise measurement of the lattice parameters by using high-resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD). The a-and c-lattice parameters were measured from the peak positions that were obtained by rocking the theta axis at the vicin… Show more

“…All kind of dislocations are dependent on lateral mosaic length, tilt and twist angles. As reported by Metzger et al [12], GaN films in (002) average twist angle is related with edge Burgers vector [b = 1/3 (11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)] type dislocation density. Also average tilt angle, is related with monotonous Burgers vector b = (0001) screw type dislocation [11].…”

“…It is followed by in-plane and out-of plane strain component evaluation. 25 Strain in c-direction of GaN layer reveals compressive behavior in the order of 10 À4 , whereas tensile behavior in the order of 10 À3 is seen in a-direction of GaN layer. With decreasing buffer thickness the compressive and tensile strain in c-and a-direction increases, resulting degraded GaN quality.…”

“…In previous reports, the strain or stress in the AlGaN layer of AlGaN/GaN heterostructures was characterized typically by using X-ray diffraction [12,13]. However, the reflection peaks of some asymmetric planes in AlGaN barrier layer are always invisible due to the thin thickness and poor interference of the plane [12]. So, the in-plane lattice constant and the biaxial strain of AlGaN layer cannot be measured directly using this method.…”
