Abstract
The methodology of statistical analysis of cathodoluminescence (CL) intensity mappings on ensembles of several hundreds of InGaN/GaN nanowires (NWs) used to quantify non-radiative recombination centres (NRCs) was validated on InGaN/GaN NWs exhibiting spatially homogeneous cathodoluminescence at the scale of single NWs. Cathodoluminescence intensity variations obeying Poisson's statistics were assigned to the presence of randomly incorporated point defects acting as NRCs. Additionally, another type of NRCs, namely extended defects leading to spatially inhomogeneous cathodoluminescence intensity at the scale of single InGaN/GaN NWs are revealed by high resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy, geometrical phase analysis and two-beam diffraction conditions techniques. Such defects are responsible for deviations from Poisson's statistics, allowing one to achieve a rapid evaluation of the crystallographic and optical properties of several hundreds of NWs in a single cathodoluminescence intensity mapping experiment.
