摘要
Crack-free Al0.45Ga0.55N epilayers with and without AlN/GaN superlattices were grown on AlN/sapphire templates by using radio-frequency-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. The effects of the AlN/GaN superlattices on the structural properties of the Al0.45Ga0.55N epilayers were studied. A reduction of screw dislocations was achieved in Al0.45Ga0.55N epilayers by using AlN/GaN superlattices. Transmission electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy analyses revealed that the compressive strain of Al0.45Ga0.55N epilayers was effectively relaxed through the inclination of edge threading-dislocations.
