Mechanical Deformation Behavior of Nonpolar GaN Thick Films by Berkovich Nanoindentation

<p>Abstract</p> <p>In this study, the deformation mechanisms of nonpolar GaN thick films grown on m-sapphire by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) are investigated using nanoindentation with a Berkovich indenter, cathodoluminescence (CL), and Raman microscopy. Results show that non...
