Abstract: High-resolution X-ray diffraction is utilized to analyze the micro-structure of annealed and as-grown GaN thin films grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition.Profile-fitting analyses indicate that the annealed ones have larger full widths at half maximum of (0002) rocking curve and lower densities of screw-type threading dislocations than the as-grown samples.A chemical etching experiment supports the above results.Our results indicate that profile-fitting is necessary when XRD is used to characterize the structure of GaN thin films.
