Popis: Nonpolar a-axial GaN MWs were fabricated on a patterned Si substrate via metal–organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) without the assistance of any catalyst. The temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) properties of a single GaN MW were discussed comprehensively. Below the temperature of 90 K, the neutral donor-bound exciton (D0X) line dominates in the spectrum, while the free–exciton transition dominates at temperatures above 90 K. The optical properties of GaN MWs exhibit a multiple-mode-stimulated-amplified emission with a peak around 375 nm and a corresponding lasing threshold of about 120 kW cm−2. In addition, the lasing characteristics of GaN MWs were explored by the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method.
