In situ synchrotron x-ray studies of strain and composition evolution during metal-organic chemical vapor deposition of InGaN.
2010
Composition and strain inhomogeneities strongly affect the optoelectronic properties of InGaN but their origin has been unclear. Here we report real-time x-ray reciprocal space mapping that reveals the development of strain and composition distributions during metal-organic chemical vapor deposition of InxGa1−xN on GaN. Strong, correlated inhomogeneities of the strain state and In fraction x arise during growth in a manner consistent with models for instabilities driven by strain relaxation.
