aN based materials including light emitting diodes, blue laser diodes and
high-power microwave transistors have received much attention over the
past few years. An important problem of these structures is the high levels of
structural defects, mostly dislocations, due to the lack of a suitable lattice-
matched substrate. So far, the substrate of choice has been mainly sapphire
(Al

) substrates, which has a large lattice mismatch with GaN or AlN. As a
result, (0001) GaN layers epitaxially grown on sapphire subtrates include high
concentrations of misfit and threading dislocations. In this study, epitaxial GaN
layers have been grown on patterned sapphire substrates by using an MOCVD
system and high resolution XRD scans are performed to investigate the effect
of patterned sapphire substrates on the dislocation density.
