摘要
We characterized the surface cleanliness. structure. and composition oh GaN(0001) grown by liquid phase epitaxy (LPE) using coaxial impact-collision ion scattering spectroscopy (CAICISS). Contamination oil the as-received LPL-GaN(0001) vvas removed by annealing at 900 degrees C, but annealing was unable to remove the O atoms from the as-grown surface, indicating that the as-grown sample incorporated O atoms. Although the as-grown sample contained O atoms, its structure perfection was maintained. These facts were explained by localization of O atoms near dislocations. The etched surface exhibited high crystalline quality, which was comparable to that of the sample grown by vapor phase epitaxy (VPE).
