Abstract

We evaluated the lattice curvature, crystallinity, and crystalline homogeneity of a GaN layer on a free standing GaN substrate using lattice orientation measurements, θ rocking curves, and reciprocal space mapping from synchrotron X-ray diffraction topography, and X-ray diffraction. The lattice curvature of the 2-inch GaN homo-epitaxial layer was a concave bend, which had a curvature radius of approximately 20.7 m. The GaN layer was epitaxially grown on the GaN substrate and had good crystallinity with a high homogeneity.
