AbstractGaN layers contain large densities (1010 cm−2) of threading dislocations, nanopipes, (0001) and { 1120 } stacking faults, and { 1010 } inversion domains. Three configurations have been found for pure edge dislocations, mainly inside high angle grain boundaries where the 4 atom ring cores can be stabilized. Two atomic configurations, related by a 1/6 < 1010 > stair rod dislocation, have been observed for the { 1120 } stacking fault in (Ga-Al)N layers. For the {1010} inversion domain boundaries, a configuration corresponding to the Holt model was observed, as well as another with no N-N or Ga-Ga bonds.

ABSTRACTNanometric inversion domains in GaN/Al2O3 layers have been investigated using HREM. They were found to be limited by {1010} planes and to cross the entire epitaxial layer. It has been possible, using extensive image simulation and matching to discriminate between possible atomic models for the boundary plane. It is shown that the inversion domain boundaries correspond to a Holt type model containing wrong bonds (Ga-Ga, N-N), and in that plane, each atom exhibits two such bonds. This probably can explain the small size of the domains (5–20 nm).

ABSTRACTThe interaction of growth intrinsic stacking faults with inversion domain boundaries in GaN epitaxial layers is studied by high resolution electron microscopy. It is observed that stacking faults may mediate a structural transformation of inversion domain boundaries, from the low energy types, known as IDB boundaries, to the high energy ones, known as Holt-type boundaries. Such interactions may be attributed to the different growth rates of adjacent domains of inverse polarity.
