Notes:
Highly-reflective GaN/GaAlN quarter-wave Bragg mirrors, designed to be centered at blue/green wavelengths, have been grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The reflectivity for a mirror centered at 473 nm was as high as 93% and the bandwidth reached 22 nm. Detailed x-ray diffraction measurements allowed us to characterize the structural parameters of the Bragg mirrors. We show that, in spite of substantial strain relaxation occurring in our samples, high reflectivity is still possible. In addition, we show that growth interruption at the heterointerfaces is crucial for achieving high reflectivities. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
