Abstract

In this paper, we study the surfactant capability of In for the growth of AlGaN/GaN heterostructures by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. Growth conditions were determined to have a self-regulated 1×1 In adlayer on AlxGa1-xN (0001). The presence of this In film favors two dimensional growth of AlGaN under stoichiometric conditions, and inhibits the formation of metal droplets on the surface. The quality of these layers was assessed by high resolution X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy and photoluminescence.
