| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
InGaN alloys are currently widely used as active layers of blue LEDs. Optical and electronic characteristics are degraded dramatically, however, when we increase In composition to fabricate green, red and infra-red LEDs due to generation of dislocations. In this study, we tried to suppress this dislocation effect by using DERI method, newly developed RF-MBE growth method by us, for high quality InN growth. Intentionally utilizing immiscible nature of InGaN alloys, we grew Ga-rich InGaN surrounding dislocations with wider bandgap. It was found that leakage current due to dislocation was suppressed as expected by conductive AFM measurements.
