Abstract

Cubic GaN, AlxGa1-xN/GaN and InyGa1-yN/GaN multiple quantum well (MQW) layers were grown by plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy on 200 &m thick free standing 3C-SiC substrates. The influence of the surface roughness of the 3C-SiC substrates and the influence of metal coverage during growth are discussed. Optimum growth conditions of c-III nitrides exist, when a one monolayer Ga coverage is formed at the growing surface. The improvement of the structural properties of cubic III-nitride layers and multilayers grown on 3C-SiC substrates is demonstrated by 1 μm thick c-GaN layers with a minimum x-ray rocking curve width of 16 arcmin, and by c-AlGaN/GaN and c-InGaN/GaN MQWs which showed up to five satellite peaks in X-ray diffraction, respectively.
