Abstract

High-quality III-V nitride epitaxial films and heterostructures are of great importance for a wide variety of electronic and optoelectronic devices. In this talk, data are presented on the optical and structural properties of InGaN-GaN heteroepitaxial films and InGaN-InGaN heterostructures and quantum wells grown by low-pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). The films have been characterized by room-temperature (300K) and low temperature (77K and 4.2K) photoluminescence (PL), cathodoluminescence (CL), high resolution X-ray diffraction, secondary-ion mass spectrometry, and transmission electron microscopy.
