Abstract(in English) We have developed a novel method to precisely measure very small residual strains (~0.01%) in GaN substrates with micron-order spatial resolution. Strain components are estimated from exciton energies in low-temperature reflectance spectra measured under an optical microscope. The high strain sensitivity comes from high sensitivity of valence-band energy positions, which are directly connected with the exciton energies, to strain components. The method was applied for GaN substrates fabricated by different techniques, and it is found that strain depth profiles largely depend on fabrication techniques. Furthermore, we will discuss the possibility of simultaneous 2D-mapping measurements of strain components and carrier concentrations which could be estimated from the broadening factors of exciton signals in reflectance spectra.
