Abstract

Formation of vertical hollow nano-tubes in GaN grown on different substrates using different growth methods is described. These defects are shown to be of several different types, some related to threading dislocations, but others originating at tubular inversion domains, or crystal inhomogeneities. Kinetic mechanism based on slow growth rate on polar {0111} surfaces is proposed to explain the origin of these defects.
