Abstract

Raman spectra of undoped GaN and Mg-doped GaN films grown by metal-organic chemical-vapor deposition on sapphire are investigated between 78K and 573K. A peak at 247 cm-1 is observed in both Raman spectra of GaN and Mg-doped GaN. It is suggested that the defect-induced scattering is origin of the mode. The electronic Raman scattering mechanism and Mg-related local vibrational mode are excluded. Furthermore, the differences of E2 and A1 (LO) modes in two samples are also discussed. The stress relaxation is observed in Mg-doped GaN.
