“…Obvious advantages of the low energy implantation as a method for nitride nanolayer fabrication are relative simplicity, compatibility with other high vacuum techniques and possibility to control elemental and chemical composition of the nanolayer in situ by means of different kinds of electron spectroscopy. Qualitative chemical analysis of the implanted layers resulted in the conclusion that they are pure GaN films (DeLouise, 1992(DeLouise, , 1993Pan et al, 1998;Meškinis et al, 2004;Kumar et al, 2009) or the films mainly consisting of GaN (Hecht et al, 2001;Majlinger et al, 2008Majlinger et al, , 2009. Using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) with synchrotron radiation (SR) made it possible to reveal an essential contribution of the phase of dilute GaAsN alloy in addition to GaN (Majlinger et al, 2008(Majlinger et al, , 2009Mikoushkin et al, 2009) and to perform quantitative chemical analysis of the implanted layer with the help of the high resolution mode of this method (Mikoushkin et al, 2009).…”
