Abstract

We investigated atomic ordering in InxGa1-xN layers for x between 0.03 and 0.28 using transmission electron microscopy. We demonstrate that {1 0 -1 1} facets play a role in 1:1 ordering. Deviations in composition from x = 0.5 are accommodated by the formation of small ordered regions embedded in a short-range ordered or disordered matrix.
