Abstract

We have investigated the effect of growth parameters on the GaN structure grown by lateral epitaxial overgrowth (LEO) on SiNx/GaN/Al2O3 wafers by low-pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The ratio of lateral to vertical growth rates (γ) is increased with increasing growth temperature and V/III ratio. Crystallographic tilting of LEO GaN strongly depends on the growth condition. At low growth temperature and high reactor pressure, γ is below unity and LEO GaN has a trapezoidal shape. Under this regrowth condition, the tilt angle of LEO GaN is decreased.
