using chlorine plasma and its mechanism. Nanotips with a density of approximately 8× 10 9
cm-2 have been formed after etching. The nanotips have diameters between 10 and 30 nm,
a length of about 0.7 µm and a high aspect ratio. It is revealed that nanotip formation is
attributed to a nanometer-scale mask with a high etch selectivity to GaN. The structure
simulated using our formation mechanism is almost similar to the experimental nanotip …
