ABSTRACTThe structure of inversion domain boundaries in β-SiC (i.e. boundaries between domains with inverted Si and C positions) is investigated by means of a Keating model. For the (110) boundary, the relaxation of the C-C and Si-Si bonds towards the ideal bond lengths which occur in the diamond structure can basically be achieved by a rotation of neighboring Si-C bonds. For the (001) boundary, it is achieved by varying the spacing between the domains. The electronic properties and total energy of formation of the relaxed (110) boundary are studied by means of linear muffin-tin orbital calculations. The interface localized states in the semiconducting gap are mainly due to the Si-Si bonds and lead to a semimetallic situation near the interface.

AbstractGaN layers contain large densities (1010 cm−2) of threading dislocations, nanopipes, (0001) and { 1120 } stacking faults, and { 1010 } inversion domains. Three configurations have been found for pure edge dislocations, mainly inside high angle grain boundaries where the 4 atom ring cores can be stabilized. Two atomic configurations, related by a 1/6 < 1010 > stair rod dislocation, have been observed for the { 1120 } stacking fault in (Ga-Al)N layers. For the {1010} inversion domain boundaries, a configuration corresponding to the Holt model was observed, as well as another with no N-N or Ga-Ga bonds.

ABSTRACTNanometric inversion domains in GaN/Al2O3 layers have been investigated using HREM. They were found to be limited by {1010} planes and to cross the entire epitaxial layer. It has been possible, using extensive image simulation and matching to discriminate between possible atomic models for the boundary plane. It is shown that the inversion domain boundaries correspond to a Holt type model containing wrong bonds (Ga-Ga, N-N), and in that plane, each atom exhibits two such bonds. This probably can explain the small size of the domains (5–20 nm).
