Abstract
Procedures for the preparation of bevels and the determination of their geo metrical parameters have been developed. Using these procedures study of co mpositional and optical spatially resolved inhomogeneities of AlxGa1-xN lay ers grown on (0001) sapphire have been studied by EPMA and cathodoluminesce nce. It has been found that the nonuniform distribution in depth of Al in e pitaxial layers grown under constant conditions is connected with presence of stresses in the layer.
