Understanding the Growth Mechanism of GaN Epitaxial Layers on Mechanically Exfoliated Graphite

Abstract The growth mechanism of GaN epitaxial layers on mechanically exfoliated graphite is explained in detail based on classic nucleation theory. The number of defects on the graphite surface can be increased via O-plasma treatment, leading to increased nucleation density on the graphite surface....
