Optical studies of GaN nanocolumns containing InGaN quantum disks and the effect of strain relaxation on the carrier distribution

The optical properties of GaN nanocolumns containing pairs of In xGa 1-xN (x ∼ 0.1) quantum disks (QDisks) have been experimentally measured. Strain simulations reveal an inhomogeneous distribution of strain, and furthermore, a relaxation between successive QDisks along the growth direction of the c...
