Using micro‐beam X‐ray diffraction (XRD), small c ‐axis tilting was observed in maskless epitaxially laterally overgrown GaN (ELO‐GaN), which is a suitable underlying layer for realizing a reliable GaN‐based blue‐violet laser diode. By analyzing the micro‐scale structure of ELO‐GaN without coalescence and the ambient‐temperature dependence of the tilting angle, we conclude that the small c ‐axis tilting is caused by compressive stress in the seed region of ELO‐GaN.
