Thick AlN layers with atomically flat surfaces were successfully grown directly on sapphire substrates by metal‐organic vapor phase epitaxy at high temperatures between 1300 °C and 1600 °C. Dislocations such as those of the edge, screw and mixed types exhibited different behaviors in the AlN epilayers. The dislocation density of AlN was less than 2 × 10 9 cm –2 . Free and bound excitons of AlN were observed with peak energies of 6.084 eV and 6.063 eV, respectively. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
