Two nondestructive examination methods, double crystals X-ray diffraction (DCXRD) and micro-Raman measurement, were introduced comparatively to determine x value in Si1-xGex layer, which show that while the two methods are consistent with each other when x is low, the results obtained from double crystals X-ray diffraction are not credible due to the large strain relaxation occurring in Si1-xGex layers when Ge content is higher than about 20%. Micro-Raman measurement is more appropriate for determining high Ge content than DCXRD.展开更多

The vapor phase epitaxy starts from the regions with no etched pits and then spreads laterally to form a continuous GaN film. The properties of the GaN film have been investigated by double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and photoluminescence (PL), respectively. The full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) of the X-ray diffraction curves (XRCs) for the GaN film grown on PSS in the (0002) plane and the (1012) plane are as low as 312.80 arcsec and 298.08 acrsec, respectively. The root mean square (RMS) of the GaN film grown on PSS is 0.233 nm and the intensity of the PL peak is comparatively strong.展开更多
