Lowering the density of dislocations in heteroepitaxial III-nitride layers: Effect of sapphire substrate treatment (review)

In this paper, different methods for lowering the dislocation density such as incorporation of the buffer layers, substrate patterning and nitridation, silan-ammonia treatment are reviewed and compared. Advantages and limitations of these methods as well as a specific mechanism to reduce the disloc...
