We report on the combined effects of a-plane GaN layers on a nanoscale patterned insulator on an r-plane sapphire substrate and epitaxial lateral overgrowth (ELOG) techniques. The fully coalescent a-plane GaN layer using nano- and microscale SiO2 masks showed the formation of nano- and microscale voids on the masks, respectively. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements revealed a surface roughness of 0.63 nm and a submicron pit density of ∼7.8 ×107 cm-2. Photoluminescence (PL) intensity was enhanced by a factor of 9.0 in comparison with that of a planar sample. Omega full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) values of the (112̄0) X-ray rocking curve along the c- and m-axes were 553 and 788 arcsec, respectively. A plan-view cathodoluminescence (CL) mapping image showed high luminescence intensity on the SiO2 masks.
