We analyze the lineshape of x-ray diffraction profiles of GaN epitaxial layers with large densities of randomly distributed threading dislocations. The peaks are Gaussian only in the central, most intense part of the peak, while the tails obey a power law. The $q^{-3}$ decay typical for random dislocations is observed in double-crystal rocking curves. The entire profile is well fitted by a restricted random dislocation distribution. The densities of both edge and screw threading dislocations and the ranges of dislocation correlations are obtained.
The strain field of a dislocation emerging at a free surface is partially relaxed to ensure stress free boundary conditions. We show that this relaxation strain at the outcrop of edge threading dislocations in GaN{0001} gives rise to a piezoelectric
Molecular beam epitaxy of Fe3Si on GaAs(001) is studied in situ by grazing incidence x-ray diffraction. Layer-by-layer growth of Fe3Si films is observed at a low growth rate and substrate temperatures near 200 degrees Celsius. A damping of x-ray inte
We investigate, both theoretically and experimentally, the drift, diffusion, and recombination of excitons in the strain field of an edge threading dislocation intersecting the GaN{0001} surface. We calculate and measure hyperspectral cathodoluminesc
We investigate the impact of threading dislocations with an edge component (a or a+c-type) on carrier recombination and diffusion in GaN(0001) layers close to the surface as well as in the bulk. To this end, we utilize cathodoluminescence imaging of
The experimental x-ray diffraction patterns of a Si$_{0.4}$Ge$_{0.6}$/Si(001) epitaxial film with a low density of misfit dislocations are modeled by the Monte Carlo method. It is shown that an inhomogeneous distribution of 60$^circ$ dislocations wit
