Nowadays, the semiconductor nanowires (NWs) typically used in hydrogen gas sensors. Gallium nitride (GaN) with a wide band gap of 3.4 eV, is one of the best semiconductors for this function. NWs surface roughness have important role in gas sensors performance. In this research, GaN NWs have been synthesized on Si substrate by plasma-assisted vapor phase deposition at different deposition time, ...

In recent years there has been considerable interest in the structures, energies and thermodynamics of(GaN)4 clusters and it is the subject of many experimental and theoretical studies because of theirfundamental importance in chemical and physical process. All calculation of this study is carried outby Gaussian 98. Geometry optimization for (GaN)4 nanocluster are be fulfilled at B3LYP, B1LYPan...

in this work we use density functional theory based on the ultra-soft pseudo-potential to calculate thestructural, mechanical and thermal properties of narrow single walled bn, aln and gan nanotubes.the electron-electron interactions were expressed within the local density approximation (lda). wehave also obtained the phonon dispersion and elastic constants of these nanotubes using the densityf...

Thick GaN films, with (1120) or (1126) planes parallel to the r-plane of sapphire, were grown by molecular beam epitaxy using AlN or GaN buffer layers. Characterization by transmission electron microscopy revealed a high density of basal-plane stacking faults (BSFs) in the (1120) non-polar GaN (a-GaN) films. {1120} and {1010} prismatic-plane and {1102} pyramidal-plane stacking faults (SFs) doma...

This work reports both experimental and theoretical studies on the InGaN/GaN light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with optical output power and external quantum efficiency (EQE) levels substantially enhanced by incorporating p-GaN/n-GaN/p-GaN/n-GaN/p-GaN (PNPNP-GaN) current spreading layers in p-GaN. Each thin n-GaN layer sandwiched in the PNPNP-GaN structure is completely depleted due to the built-in ...

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...

N-GaN/P-GaN/N-GaN/P-GaN/N-GaN (NPNPN-GaN) junctions embedded between the n-GaN region and multiple quantum wells (MQWs) are systematically studied both experimentally and theoretically to increase the performance of InGaN/GaN light emitting diodes (LEDs) in this work. In the proposed architecture, each thin P-GaN layer sandwiched in the NPNPN-GaN structure is completely depleted due to the buil...
