Description

Nucleation of GaN crystallites by sublimation method on sapphire (0001), scratched sapphire (0001), SiO2, Si (111), and metalorganic chemical vapor deposition(MOCVD)-GaN/sapphire (0001) was investigated. The density of the nuclei on SiO2 and Si (111) was estimated to be 6 × 103/cm2. On the other hand, a continuous film rather than discrete crystallites was obtained on both the MOCVD-GaN and the scratched sapphire. Growth nucleation control was performed by partly covering the MOCVD-GaN or scratched sapphire (0001) with SiO2. As a result, hexagonal columns about 200 µm in diameter and 200 µm high were selectively and uniformly grown at the window sites. The diameter of each hexagonal column was much larger than the width of each window. This method can be used for device processing utilizing the crystallites.
