The lattice disorder and elemental distribution in He-implanted GaN epilayer at a fluence of 4 x 10(16) He+/cm(2) at 450 degrees C have been investigated by a combination of conventional, high resolution transmission electron microscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy. High resolution transmission electron microscopy shows interstitial-type dislocation loops attached to He bubbles. The nature of dislocation loops and stacking faults are carefully investigated by high resolution transmission electron microscopy. Electron energy loss spectroscopy shows the deficit of N atoms and enriched Ga nanocrystals formed in the damage region, which is comparable with the previous reports. In addition, the chemical environment of nitrogen upon He+ implantation is first investigated in the present experimental results. The research results will be used for understanding ion irradiation-induced damage in GaN.
