GaN layers on sapphire substrates were prepared by using metal organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) combined with an in-situ H2 etching process for the purpose of later self-separation of thick GaN crystals produced by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) on such substrates. The etching process results in deep pits and long voids that formed on the surface and along the lower interface between GaN and sapphire, respectively. The pits, which were investigated by SEM analysis, can be modified in their aspect ratio and density by controlling the etching parameters. Using a proper set of in-situ etching parameters, a seed layer with internal voids can be prepared, which is suitable for HVPE overgrowth and the self-separation process. The quality of the in-situ-etched seed GaN layer and overgrown GaN crystal were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and defect selective etching (DSE). With the aid of atomic force microscopy (AFM) in tapping mode, the interface morphology of the separated GaN crystal was analyzed. The crystal quality of the separated HVPE-GaN crystal is comparable to the crystal grown on untreated GaN MOVPE-seed, which did not separate from the sapphire substrate. The introduced technique to promote the crystal separation during the HVPE process has no obvious drawback on the quality of the grown GaN crystals. Using this technique, the self-separation occurs more gently due to a weakened interface between GaN/sapphire. The conventional separation from an untreated seed by pure thermomechanical action results in higher mechanical forces on the crystal and consequently much higher risk of crystal breakage.

A method to grow gallium nitride (GaN) films directly on the graphene layers by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) method is reported in this work. We used a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method to grow graphene on a copper foil, and the test results showed the presence of monolayer graphene at most regions. GaN films were grown on the graphene/MO-GaN substrate (GaN which was grown by metal organic vapor phase deposition) and MO-GaN template by HVPE method. Raman Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) were adopted for characterization. By comparing with the MO-GaN substrate, the crystalline quality of the GaN films were both increased. However, the crystalline quality of the HVPE-GaN with graphene interlayer is slightly lower than that directly grown on MO-GaN.
