Abstract(in English) Recently, we have successfully reduced the threading dislocation density in AlN layer on SiC substrates to 10^8 cm^<-2> by controlling the step heights of the SiC substrates, Ga pre-deposition and avoiding unintentional active-nitrogen exposure prior to AlN growth. In this study, we report the growth of AlN/GaN short-period superlattice (SPSL) on SiC by applying the high-quality AlN growth process. We demonstrate coherent growth of AlN/GaN SPSL on SiC substrates. Thicknesses of AlN and GaN in the SPSL were 12 bilayer (BL) and 2 BL, respectively. The FWHM values of main peak for the AlN/GaN SPSL were 34.2 arcsec for the (0002) ω-scan and 37.9 arcsec for the (10-12) ω-scan. A RSM near (1 1 -2 12) reflection of 6H-SiC clearly indicates that AlN/GaN SPSL was coherently grown on 6H-SiC. The very small FHWM values reflect coherent growth of AlN/GaN SPSL on 6H-SiC substrate.
