AbstractAbstract
[en] Gallium nitride (GaN) compound semiconductors have been known to be very sensitive to Ga focused ion beam (FIB) processing. Due to the nature of GaN based materials it is often difficult to produce damage-free lamellae, therefore applying the Triple Beam™ system which incorporates an enhanced method for amorphous removal is presented to make a high quality lamella. The damage or distortion layer thickness of GaN single crystal prepared with 30 kV Ga FIB and 1 kV Ga FIB were about 17 nm and 1.5 nm respectively. The crystallinity at the uppermost surface remained unaffected when the condition of 1 kV Ar ion milling with the Triple Beam™ system was used. The technique of combining traditional Ga FIB processing with an enhanced method for amorphous layer removal by low energy Ar ion milling allows us to analyse the InGaN/GaN interface using aberration corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy at atomic resolution levels.
