An interface-modification technique is developed to efficiently block threading defects in semipolar GaN. Mechanisms governing the interface modification via site-specific Ga filling and nanograin growth into islands are clarified based on surface atomic structures and theories of Gibbs free energy. Crystalline qualities and optical properties of semipolar GaN epilayers are significantly improved by the interface modification.
