摘要
The Ti-mask selective-area growth (SAG) of GaN on Ti-nanohole-patterned GaN templates by rf-plasma-assisted molecular-beam epitaxy was employed to demonstrate the fabrication of regularly arranged InGaN/GaN nanocolumns. The SAG of GaN nanocolumns strongly depended on the growth temperature (T(g)); at T(g) below 900 degrees C, no SAG occurred, but above 900 degrees C, SAG occurred. However, an excessive increase in T(g) to above 900 degrees C at a nitrogen flow rate (Q(N2)) of 3.5 sccm brought about increased inhomogeneity in the nanocolumn shape. Upon reducing Q(N2) from 3.5 to 1 sccm, uniform nanocolumn arrays were successfully grown around the critical temperature of 900 degrees C. (C) 2008 The Japan Society of Applied Physics
