The wide variety of potential applications of III 2V nit ride miconductors have drastically pro 2
moted t he rearch activity related to t he materi 2
als.Especially ,t he demonst ration of bright blue
light emitting diodes(L EDs)and blue lar diodes (LDs)has proven nit ride2bad miconductors to be a promising material system for high2power and high2speed optoelect ronic display devices[122].Al2 t hough dramatic p rogress has been made in impro2 ving bot h epitaxial material quality and device per2 formance,substantial challenges remain.In parti2 cular,t he lack of readily available homoepitaxial substrates typically necessitates growt h on sap2 p hire,which lead to degradation in material quality p redominantly t hrough t he prence of high densi2 ties of t hreading dislocations.Threading disloca2 tions in GaN degrade device performance t hrough carrier scattering[3],nonradiative recombina2 tion[4],and incread rever2bias leakage cur2 rent[526].Many met hods are adopted in order to de2 crea dislocatio n density,t he mo st uf ul met hod is epitaxial lateral overgrown(ELO)technique, and t his technique can result in dislocation density veral orders magnit ude lower t han in t he planar GaN hetero st ruct ures[7].However,as already known,t he ELO technology requires a relatively complicated p rocedure,and t he mask is ud in t he conventional ELO technique generally,moreover, interaction of t he wings wit h t he mask underneat h is commonly obrved in ELO struct ures.This p heno menon leads to a downward tilt of t he ELO wings and to creation of low angle boundaries over t he mask edges as well as causing p ro blems for de2 fect2f ree coalescence of tilted wings grown f rom ad2 jacent eds[8210].In t his paper,high quality GaN films wit h low dislocation density have been grown on s
app hire subst rate by surface t reat ment in order to overcome t ho p roblems existing in t he conven2 tional ELO technique.
1 Experimental Procedure
In t his st udy,a c2plane(0001)2oriented single polished2”sapp hire substrate is ud.A half of t he sapp hire subst rate is etched chemically in t he molten KO H solvent at250℃~350℃lasting for 30min~60min,so t he sapp hire substrate is divided into two part s,namely etched part and common part,t hen it is cleaned by aceto ne to wipe off or2 ganism on t he subst rate.
The growt h of GaN films are carried out in a vertical rotating disk MOCVD reactor manufac2 t ured by Thomas Swan Scientific Equip ment Limit2ed Company at a p ressure of100Torr.The pre2 t reated subst rate is initially annealed in H2at mos2 p here at1000℃,t hen t he temperat ure is decread to525℃for t he growt h of buffer layer,followed by undoped GaN layer grown at1060℃,t hen in2 creasing t he ratio of V/III in order to laterally grow even and high quality GaN films.V/III ratio is incread by decreasing t he flow rate of t rimet h2 ylgallium(TM Ga),and t he flow rate of ammonia (N H3)is identical for t he whole process.The total epitaxial layer t hickness is about3μm.In all of t he above cas,t he TM Ga and N H3are ud as p recursors,and hydrogen(H2)as a carrier gas.

2)high resolution double crystal X2ray diffraction curve(XRC)measurement using a four2crystalline Philip XRC system.The surface morp hology is characterized by an atomic force mi2 cro scopy(A FM)using SPI3800N.The excitation of t he GaN films is made for PL of RPM2000by means of266nm fourfold f requency Nd:YA G La2 r.GaN films t ransmission spectrum is measured by p hotometer of Lambda800/900.
2 R esults and Discussion
Figure1(a)shows the surface microscopy of pre2 treated sapphire substrate.Since there is some dislocation on sapphire substrate,and the chemical etch velocity in the regions with dislocation concentra2 tion is faster than that in el place,some etch pits are formed in tho regions with dislocation concentration. Whereas,the etching velocity in el regions is aniso2 tropic,too,so some micro2sidesteps are formed,as shown figure1(a).The etch pits en from figure1 (a)are likely to be convex,but in fact,the are con2 cave.Figure1(b)clearly shows the etching pits mi2 croscopy of treaded sapphire
surface.

For simplicity ,t he GaN grown on t he chemi 2cally etched part of t he sapp hire subst rate is deno 2t

281.16arcc and 467.64arcc ,respectively ,while t ho of sample A are decread to 208.80arcc and 320.76arcc ,respectively.So t he dis 2location density of GaN epilayer can be greatly re 2duced in t he ca of using chemically etched sap 2p hire

Fig.3 Optical transmission spectrum of G aN
of t he t ransmission spect ra for t he GaN films ,shown in Figure 3,confirm t he high quality films.The optical absorption edge of GaN films is at 365nm ,corresponding wit h t he fact t hat t he bandgap of GaN is 3.4ev.Wit h t he improvement of GaN films crystal quality ,t he dispersion for t he incidence is decread ,t he absorption for incidence is reduced too ,t he transmission ratio has been in 2cread greatly.The t ransmission ratio of sample A is greater t han t hat of sample B ,as shown in figure 3.This result is in good agreement wit h t he struct ure analysis ,which disclod t he lower XRC FW HMs for sample A.And t he modulation dept h of optical t ransmission spectrum for sample A is greater ,compared wit h t hat for sample B ,t he op 2tical quality of sample A is superior to t hat of sam 2ple B.
Room temperat ure p hotoluminescence (PL )spect ra of GaN epilayers are shown in figure 4.The PL intensity of sample A is st ronger t han t hat of sample B ,t he FW HM of sample B is 14.2nm ,whereas t hat of sample A is decread to 8.2nm.The Y L of t he sample B is st ronger ,while t hat of
t he sample A is nearly invisible in t he PL spec 2t rum.The GaN epilayer wit h high quality exhibit s almost no Y L emission.Alt hough t he origin of t he Y L is still being debated ,it is well acknowledged t hat t he Y L corresponds to t he deformed crystal struct ure.In our work ,it ems t hat t he Y L is re 2lated to t he dislocation.The intensity of t he near band edge PL emission of GaN is indicative of it s optical quality.So sample A has a higher optical quality ,compared wit h sample B ,which corre 2sponds wit h t he higher crystal quality of sample A concluded by t he above discussion.The experi 2mental result s show t hat t he optical quality of GaN determined by PL is in agreement wit h t hat deter 2mined by t ransmission measurement.

The growt h condition of sample A and sample B is same absolutely except t hat sample A has been grown on p re2t reated part of sapp hire subst rate, sample B grown on common part of t he same sap2 p hire subst rate.Whereas,t he dislocation density of sample A is lower t han t hat of sample B,t he crystal and optical quality of sample A are superior to t ho of sample B.Therefore,t he crystal an
d optical quality of epilayer can be improved and dis2 location density can be decread by surface t reated sapp hire subst rate.
