Effects on structural characteristics of growth temperature and Si doping in GaN thin films grown on high temperature GaN were investigated. The GaN/GaN homojunction structure was grown via MOCVD at intermediate temperature (IT, 840 °C) with various Si doping concentrations. V-shaped pits are observed on the surface of the undoped GaN grown at IT by AFM morphology analysis. TEM two beam images show that only screw- and mixed-type components of dislocations contribute to pit formation. Moderate Si doping reduces the pit density, but over-doping of Si deteriorates the IT-GaN property by forming pits again. Not all pits are related with threading dislocations but some of them are observed in the dislocation free area of high Si-doped GaN. (© 2003 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
