Highly-quality GaN films were deposited on diamond substrate using an electron cyclotron resonance plasma enhanced metal organic chemical vapor deposition system (ECR-PEMOCVD) at the proper temperature. The source of gallium is Trimethyl gallium (TMGa) and N2, and the influence of temperature on the properties of GaN films was investigated systematically by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), room temperature photoluminescence (PL), respectively. The dense and uniformed GaN films with highly c-axis preferred orientation were successfully achieved on free-standing diamond substrates under optimized deposition temperature of 400 °C.

High-quality GaN films are deposited on diamond films using an electron cyclotron resonance plasma enhanced metal organic chemical vapor deposition (ECR-PEMOCVD) under the condition of the proper Trimethyl gallium (TMGa) flux. The influence of TMGa flux on the properties of GaN films is systematically investigated by x-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The results show that the high quality GaN films with small surface roughness and high c-orientation are successfully achieved at the optimized flux. The most significant improvements in morphological and structural properties of GaN films are obtained by using a proper TMGa flux

High quality GaN films are deposited on freestanding thick diamond films by electron cyclotron resonance plasma enhanced metal organic chemical vapor deposition (ECR-PEMOCVD). The characteristics of GaN films were investigated by x-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The high quality GaN films with small surface roughness of 8.3 nm and high c-orientation are successfully achieved at the optimized nitriding time with the diamond substrate. These properties of GaN films with small surface smoothness and high c-orientation are well used as piezoelectric films for surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices.

Preferred orientation GaN films are deposited on freestanding thick diamond films by electron cyclotron resonance plasma enhanced metal organic chemical vapor deposition (ECR-PEMOCVD). The TMGa and N2 are applied as precursors and different N2 flux is used to achieve high quality GaN films. The influence of N2 flux on the properties of GaN films is systematically investigated by x-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) and Hall Effect Measurement (HL). The results show that the high quality GaN films deposited at the proper N2 flux display a fine structural and electrical property and the Ga/N atomic ratio plays an important role in the electrical property of GaN films.

Self-assembled In0.5Ga0.5As quantum dots (QDs) were grown using metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) on GaAs (100) substrate with different number of stacking QDs layers. Surface study using atomic force microscopy (AFM) shows that surface morphology of the self-assembled QDs change with different number of stacking QDs layers caused by the previous QDs layers and the thickness of the GaAs spacer layers. PL measurement shows variation in the PL spectra as a function of number of stacking layers of In0.5Ga0.5As QDs. The PL peak positions blue-shifted from 1225 nm to 1095 nm and dramatically increase in intensity with increasing number of stacking QDs layers.
