Abstract

Pendeo-epitaxy of individual GaN and AlxGa,1-xN films and single- and multi-layer heterostructures of these materials have been achieved on a columnar GaN seed layer using metallorganic vapor phase epitaxy. These structures have been characterized using scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The RMS roughness value of the grown side wall plane (1120) of these structures was 0.099 nm.
