The relaxation mechanisms in metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy grown (Al,Ga)N∕GaN heterostructures are studied. The first stage of the relaxation process is a two-dimensional–three-dimensional growth transition with the formation of mesalike islands separated by V-shaped trenches. The tensile stress relief is obtained by an elastic relaxation...
