Abstract
Metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy of InN layers on sapphire was studied in‐situ by spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE), ex‐situ atomic force microscopy and optical microscopy. Surface morphology has been largely improved by using nitrogen instead of hydrogen as carrier gas during sapphire nitridation. Using the sensitivity of in‐situ SE with respect to roughness we established a new growth procedure with low V/III ratio (10^4^) at high temperature (580 °C) and growth rates as high as 350 nm/h, leading to improved electronic layer properties and allowing for growth of comparably thick layers.
