Abstract : In the present paper, we reported the fabrication of gallium nitride (GaN) nanostructures on sapphire substrates
through the ions of GaN. These GaN ions are generated due to the interaction of GaN pellet with hot, dense and extremely
non-equilibrium argon plasma in a modified dense plasma focus device. In the process of fabrication two bursts of focused
plasma were used and the sapphire substrates were placed at distances of 4.0 cm and 5.0 cm from the top of central anode.
Morphological studies using scanning electron microscopy reveals formation of nanodots having average diameter ~ 71 nm
and ~ 35 nm at 4.0 cm and 5.0 cm distances, respectively. Formation of nanodots have been further confirmed in
transmission electron microscopy results. X-ray diffraction pattern show peaks corresponding to hexagonal GaN.
Photoluminescence spectra show emission peaks corresponding to band edge, blue and UV emissions. Optical absorption
studies reveals increase in optical band gap of nanodots from that of bulk GaN. Transport studies using Hall measurement
indicate n-type nature of fabricated GaN nanodots. The obtained optical and transport properties of GaN nanodots suggest
the potential applications of nanodots in GaN based nano-optoelectronic devices.
