Abstract
Coherent ultrathin GaAsN insertions are formed in a GaN matrix by predeposition of an ultrathin GaAs layer on a GaN surface, followed by annealing in an NH3 atmosphere and overgrowth with GaN. During the overgrowth, most of the As atoms are substituted by N, with a dense array of coherent GaAsN nanodomains with lateral sizes of about 3-4 nm formed in the GaN matrix. We report a green luminescence due to GaAsN insertions, surviving at high observation temperatures and excitation densities.
