Forming the GaN Nanocrystals on the Graphene-Like g-AlN and g-Si3N3 Surface

详细

The formation of GaN nanocrystals on the graphene-like AlN (g-AlN) modification and graphene-like (g-Si₃N₃) silicon nitride by ammonia molecular beam epitaxy has been investigated. It has been found that the GaN growth on the g-Si₃N₃ surface leads to the formation of misoriented nanocrystals. During the GaN growth on the g-AlN surface, the epitaxial growth of similarly oriented GaN quantum dots of the graphite-like modification has been observed. The lattice parameters and energy structure of two graphite-like GaN modifications with the alternating AB (graphite structure) and AA⁺ (hexagonal boron nitride structure) layers have been calculated.
