Raman scattering and polarization-dependent synchrotron radiation X-ray absorption, in combination, have been employed to examine the residual stress of undoped GaN epitaxial layers grown on Si by molecular beam epitaxy and Si-doped n-type GaN layers grown on sapphire by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. Values of the lattice constant of different GaN films can be deduced from the interatomic distances in the second coordination shell around Ga by polarization-dependent extended X-ray absorption fine structure analysis and the strain of the films can be obtained. This result is further confirmed by Raman scattering spectra in which the phonon modes show a significant shift between different GaN epitaxial layers with different growth conditions.
