GaN-on-diamond is a promising route towards reliable high-power transistor devices with outstanding performances due to better heat management, replacing common GaN-on-SiC technologies. Nevertheless, the implementation of GaN-on-diamond remains challenging. In this work, the selective area growth of GaN nanostructures on cost-efficient, large-scale available heteroepitaxial diamond (001) substrates by means of plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy is investigated.

We demonstrate the fabrication of homogeneous GaN nanowall arrays with different widths, distances and specific crystallographic side facets. Photoluminescence spectroscopy of as-grown GaN nanowalls reveals a high crystal quality and low defect density.
