Research data supporting "Porous pseudo-substrates for InGaN quantum well growth: morphology, structure and strain relaxation"

Zip folder containing X-ray diffraction scans and simulation files (.txt files) from partially relaxed porous InGaN superlattice pseudo-substrates an InGaN multiple quantum well (MQW) structures grown on such templates. The pseudo-substrates were porosified by electro-chemical etching at different etching voltages, in which a sub-surface InGaN/InGaN superlattice was etched via threading dislocations acting as etching channels.
