[en] TiO₂ and TiN _xO _y thin films grown by low pressure metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (LP-MOCVD) on top of Si(0 0 1) substrate were characterized by X-ray multiple diffraction. X-ray reflectivity analysis of TiO₂[1 1 0] and TiNO[1 0 0] polycrystalline layers allowed to determine the growth rate (-80 A/min) of TiO₂ and (-40 A/min) of TiNO films. X-ray multiple diffraction through the Renninger scans, i.e., φ-scans for (0 0 2)Si substrate primary reflection is used as a non-conventional method to obtain the substrate lattice parameter distortion due to the thin film conventional deposition, from where the information on film strain type is obtained

[en] Cathodoluminescence (CL) spectrum imaging and grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXRD) are employed to investigate nitride three-dimensional (3D) gallium structures. The metallic precursors are naturally obtained on a large variety of substrates by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (CVD) with different shape/size controlled by the growth conditions, especially the temperature. These 3D metallic structures are subsequently exposed to a nitridation process in a conventional CVD reactor to form GaN nanocrystals, as confirmed by GIXRD measurements. CL spectroscopy shows visible light emission (2.5-2.8 eV) excited from the GaN in the 3D structures
