In this paper the X-ray photoelectron spectrum and the Auger electron spectrum were used to study the microstructures of AlGaN/AlN/Si (111) grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition. The results indicated that a broad transition region, about 20 nm, was present at the interface of AlN/Si and

Abstract
A thirtyโpair AlGaN/AlN distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) targeted at a center wavelength of 320 nm was grown on a 2โinch sapphire substrate by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). It is free of cracks in the main area of the wafer except for a โผ4 mm periphery observed under optical microscope. The measured reflectance spectrum shows a peak reflectivity of 93% at 313 nm and a bandwidth of 13 nm. Further investigation into the interfaces was performed using Auger electron spectroscopy (AES), scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) and energy dispersive Xโray fluorescence spectrometer (EDX). It was found that the constitutional change is abrupt when AlGaN is deposited on an AlN layer but gradual in reverse, which resulted in a stack of quasiโthreeโlayer periods and high Al composition and therefore both the center reflectivity and the bandwidth were depressed.
