Further knowledge and development of anisotropic and three-dimensional top-down etch techniques are needed to fully realize the potential of the III-nitrides in new electronic and photonic nano and micro device concepts. Here, we explore the etch characteristics of GaN, AlGaN, and AlN using a two-step dry plus wet etch approach, which allows for the exposure of crystal facets with non-zero and differing etch rates. We apply general geometric principles of crystallographic dissolution processes to enable the prediction of facet-determined etch structures, including high aspect ratio nanowires and nanowalls.","PeriodicalId":314151,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE Photonics Conference (IPC)","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114179379","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
