Gallium nitride (GaN) nanostructures (NS) were synthesized using pulseddirect current plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PDC-PECVD) on quartzsubstrate at low temperature (600°C). Gallium metal (Ga) and nitrogen (N) plasma wereused as precursors. The morphology and structure of the grown GaN NS werecharacterized by field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), transmissionelectro...
