Role of inserting an InGaN strain release interlayer in AlGaN growth

AlGaN grown on a GaN template usually suffers tensile stress, and the accumulated tensile stress may cause formation of cracks. In this paper, a method to reduce the tensile stress during AlGaN growth by inserting an InGaN interlayer is proposed. Although InGaN has a larger in-plane lattice constant...
