摘要
High-optical-quality GaN was grown on a (111) Si substrate by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy using an AlInN buffer layer and an indium doped AlN nucleation layer. The photoluminescence spectra at room temperature showed a strong and narrow edge-emission peak and weak defect-related emission bands. We found four spectral peaks in the green and yellow luminescence bands at G(0): 514.5 nm (2.410 eV), G(1): 546.5nm (2.269 eV), Y-1: 553.5nm (2.240 eV), and Y-0: 584.5nm (2.121 eV), independent of the growth methods/conditions. The results suggest that the emission is associated with an intrinsic defect such as a Ga vacancy. (C) 2014 The Japan Society of Applied Physics
