Aluminum nitride transitional layer for reducing dislocation density and cracking of AlGaN epitaxial films
Abstract
A denticulated Group III nitride structure that is useful for growing Al.sub.xGa.sub.1-xN to greater thicknesses without cracking and with a greatly reduced threading dislocation (TD) density.
