            Abstract : 
Our investigation is about rapid thermal annealing (RTA) effect on valence-band splitting (VBS) of GaNxAs1-x. The observed VBS between light-and heavy-hole induced by lattice strain in GaNxAs1-x epilayers is gradually weakened by the RTA process. This could be attributed to strain relax caused by nitrogen reorganization after RTA.
