摘要
The surface roughness of an as-grown GaN epilayer is reduced using a combination of KrF excimer laser irradiation and post chemical wet treatment. KrF excimer laser irradiation ablates GaN surfaces. resulting in the formation of a Ga-rich layer on the surface. The Ga-rich layer is etched off by hydrochloric acid treatment. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic (XPS) analysis reveals that the chemically etched surface has similar composition and chemical bonding to those of untreated GaN. The average roughness (R-a) is improved by similar to 43% compared with an untreated GaN sample with a laser fluence of over 2.0 J/cm(2). (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
