摘要
V defects in GaN layer grown on Si (111) using metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) were investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM), plan-view transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS). Dislocations are the origination of V defects. Stress field around dislocations induce the concentration of C atoms, furthermore, slow growth rate on those {10-11} planes are suggested as being responsible for the initiation of V defects. The formation mechanism of V defects was discussed.
