Item Open Access Buffer effects on the mosaic structure of the HR-GaN grown on 6H-SiC substrate by MOCVD(Springer New York LLC, 2017) Arslan, E.; Öztürk, M. K.; Tıraş, E.; Tıraş, T.; Özçelik, S.; Özbay, EkmelHigh-resistive GaN (>108 Ω cm) layers have been grown with different buffer structures on 6H-SiC substrate using metalorganic chemical vapor deposition reactor. Different combination of the GaN/AlN super lattice, low temperature AlN, high temperature AlN and AlxGa1−xN (x ≈ 0.67) layers were used in the buffer structures. The growth parameters of the buffer layers were optimized for obtaining a high-resistive GaN epilayer. The mosaic structure parameters, such as lateral and vertical coherence lengths, tilt and twist angle (and heterogeneous strain), and dislocation densities (edge and screw dislocations) of the high-resistive GaN epilayers have been investigated using x-ray diffraction measurements. In addition, the residual stress behaviors in the high-resistive GaN epilayers were determined using both x-ray diffraction and Raman measurements. It was found that the buffer structures between the HR-GaN and SiC substrate have been found to have significant effect on the surface morphology and the mosaic structures parameters. On the other hand, both XRD and Raman results confirmed that there is low residual stress in the high-resistive GaN epilayers grown on different buffer structures.Item Open Access Structural analysis of an InGaN/GaN based light emitting diode by X-ray diffraction(Springer, 2009-04-18) Öztürk, M. K.; Hongbo, Y.; SarIkavak, B.; Korçak, S.; Özçelik, S.; Özbay, EkmelThe important structural characteristics of hexagonal GaN in an InGaN/GaN multi quantum well, which was aimed to make a light emitted diode and was grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition on c-plain sapphire, are determined by using nondestructive high-resolution X-ray diffraction in detail. The distorted GaN layers were described as mosaic crystals characterized by vertical and lateral coherence lengths, a mean tilt, twist, screw and edge type threading dislocation densities. The rocking curves of symmetric (00.l) reflections were used to determine the tilt angle, while the twist angle was an extrapolated grown ω-scan for an asymmetric (hk.l) Bragg reflection with an h or k nonzero. Moreover, it is an important result that the mosaic structure was analyzed from a different (10.l) crystal direction that was the angular inclined plane to the z-axis. The mosaic structure parameters were obtained in an approximately defined ratio depending on the inclination or polar angle of the sample.
