Abstract

Sub-micron periodic gratings with pitch ∼3,000Å were formed in GaN and InGaN using holographic lithography and room temperature ECR BCl3/N2 dry etching at moderate microwave (500W) and rf (100W) powers. The process produces uniform gratings without the need for elevated sample temperatures during the etch step.
