Summary on Grant Application Form |
We wish to modify an existing Coates and Walter FEGSEM fitted with an in-situ STM to include (a) an electronic backscattering pattern (EBSP) facility and (b) low temperature cathodoluminescence (CL). By developing a low voltage EBSP technique we intend to correlate high spatial resolution orientation mapping with CL to determine the type of boundaries and, perhaps, individual defects which control luminescence in GaN and InGaN/GaN films. We wish to carry out exploratory studies using low voltage SEM and the in-situ STM to examine the electronic properties of individual defects in GaN.
