Low defect density a ‐plane GaN films were successfully grown by sidewall epitaxial lateral overgrowth (SELO) technology. Using this technology, a ‐plane GaN films with atomically flat surface were grown. The threading dislocation and stacking fault densities in the overgrown regions were lower than 10 6 cm −2 and 10 3 cm −1 , respectively. We also fabricated and characterized a ‐plane‐GaN‐based LEDs using SELO technology. The light output power of a blue‐green LED was shown to monotonically increase with decreasing of threading dislocation density. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
