Abstract

A method of fabricating non-polar a-plane GaN/(Al,B,In,Ga)N multiple quantum wells (MQWs). The a-plane MQWs are grown on the appropriate GaN/sapphire template layers via metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) with well widths ranging from 20 Å to 70 Å. The room temperature photoluminescence (PL) emission energy from the a-plane MQWs followed a square well trend modeled using self-consistent Poisson-Schrodinger (SCPS) calculations. Optimal PL emission intensity is obtained at a quantum well width of 52 Å for the a-plane MQWs.
