Methods\ Applying the hydride chemical vapor deposition method, GaN films were deposited on different kinds of substrates, including sapphire, Si(111),Si(100),GaAs and GaP(111) both on the P face and the Ga face. The growth was performed at low temperatures of below 700℃. XRD, Hall measurement, cathodoluminescence (CL) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were used to characterise the film properties. Results\ It was found that the temperature and the nature of substrate materials influence the layer morphology. Conclusion\ The analysis shows that no apparent relationship exists between the optical properties and layer morphology.展开更多
