Abstract

We report here epitaxial growth of InGaN/GaN quantum wells (QWs) on suspended HfO 2 photonic crystal structures by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Suspended HfO 2 photonic crystals are achieved on silicon substrate by combining film evaporation, electron beam lithography, fast atom beam etching of HfO 2 film with dry etching of silicon substrate. InGaN/GaN QWs are subsequently grown on suspended HfO 2 photonic crystal structures by MBE technique, and freestanding HfO 2 photonic crystal slab can sustain complicated stress change during MBE growth. The reflectance and photoluminescence measurements are performed for epitaxial III-nitride structures.
