  • Publication number: 20110156214
    Abstract: Provided are a nitride thin film structure and a method of forming the same. If a nitride thin film is formed on a substrate that is not a nitride, many defects are generated by a difference in lattice constants between the substrate and the nitride thin film. Also, there is a problem of warping the substrate by a difference in thermal expansion coefficients between the substrate and the nitride thin film. In order to solve the problems, the present invention suggests a thin film structure in which after coating hollow particles, i.e. hollow structures on the substrate, the nitride thin film is grown thereon and the method of forming the thin film structure. According to the present invention, since an epitaxial lateral overgrowth (ELO) effect can be obtained by the hollow structures, high-quality nitride thin film can be formed.
