Abstract: Morphology and micro-structure of the pyrite whiskers synthesized by hydrothermal process were systematically observed by using transmission electron microscope. The results indicated that whiskers revealed various morphologies, including smooth, rough and branched. Combined with the hydrothermal reaction conditions, the causes of whiskers morphology diversity is: straight smooth whiskers grow in the condition of stable concentration, temperature, and interface state; whiskers with rough surface and complex morphology grow in the condition of unstable concentration, temperature, and interface state; the same level branching structure rotation was the result of hydrothermal disturbance; nano-crystalline grains formed after the main growth of the whiskers.

Abstract: GaN films are grown on Si(111) with low-temperature GaN (LT-GaN) layers as buffer layers by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE). The LT-GaN layers are deposited at different temperatures ranging from 400 to 900 °C. The surface property, the structure and optical properties of the GaN films with different LT-GaN layers are studied. When deposition temperature of LT-GaN layer is 600 °C, the GaN film shows the best properties.
