A ‐plane (11 $ \bar 2 $ 0) InN has been successfully grown on R ‐plane (10 $ \bar 1 $ 2) sapphire substrate by electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasma‐exited molecular beam epitaxy through substrate nitridation process. The substrate nitridation of R ‐plane sapphire by ECR nitrogen plasma was carried out at 430 °C for 10 and 15 min. The results of reflection high‐energy electron diffraction (RHEED), X‐ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy indicated the formation of A ‐plane InN on R ‐plane sapphire. Inclusion of cubic InN was also observed together with A ‐plane InN through RHEED and XRD measurements in case of A ‐plane InN layer grown on 10 min nitridated substrate. However, when the nitridation time of R ‐plane sapphire by ECR nitrogen plasma increased to 15 min, it is confirmed that formation of cubic InN was successfully suppressed.
