Abstract

We report the growth of high-quality III-V nitride heteroepitaxial films on (0001) sapphire substrates by low-pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). These films have exhibited narrow X-ray diffraction rocking curves with full-width-at-half-maximum values as low as ΔΘ∼37 arc sec. Photoluminescence and transmission electron microscopy analysis further indicate the samples to be of high quality.
