Anisotropically biaxial strain in non-polar (112–0) plane In x Ga1−x N/GaN layers investigated by X-ray reciprocal space mapping

Abstract In this study, the indium composition x as well as the anisotropically biaxial strain in non-polar a-plane In x Ga1−x N on GaN is studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. In accordance with XRD reciprocal lattice space mapping, with increasing indium composition, the maximum of the In x...
