Abstract

The material quality of III-nitrides is severely limited by the lack of cost-effective substrates with suitable lattice and thermal expansion coefficients. A suspended ultrathin silicon membrane substrate (sim16 nm), fabricated by an easy process on SOI substrates, is thus designed for nitride epitaxial growth, which can effectively release the strain in the epi-layers, and has demonstrated large-area (Al)GaN growth with a smooth surface and greatly reduced defect density. This research provides a promising CMOS-compatible method for growing cost-effectively high-quality III-nitrides that can be used for the development of high-performance devices.
