Abstract
High-resolution X-ray diffraction has been used to analyze GaN(0001) epitaxial layers on sapphire substrates. Several structural properties of GaN, including the lattice constants, strains, and dislocation densities are revealed by the technique of X-ray dffraction (XRD). Lattice constants calculated from the omega/2theta scan are c=0.5185 nm and a=0.3157 nm. Also, the in-plane strain is −1.003%, while out of the plane, the epitaxial film is almost relaxed. Several methods are used to deduce the mosaicity and dislocation density of GaN, showing that the edge type dislocations are the overwhelming majority.
