Abstract
High quality nanoscale, phase-pure hexagonal gallium nitride crystallites have been synthesized by using the thermally induced explosion of the molecular precursor (Et3N)Ga(N3)3. The method allows the control of the particle size from 2 to 24 nm. X-ray diffraction and Rietveld simulations revealed a platelet-like shape of the larger particles in contrast to the rather spherical smaller crystallites. An increasing blue shift of the high energy luminescence with decreasing crystallite size was found (up to4.4eV at 5 K).
