We demonstrate here that nanostructuring of GaN thin film significantly enhances the band-edge emission, due to structural and geometrical effects. Films of increasing roughness are formed by kinetic control in a PA-MBE system and their morphological, structural and optical properties are compared by complementary characterization probes. The nanowall configuration with largest pore size (approximate to 215nm) shows a two orders of magnitude enhancement of integrated PL intensity in comparison to a GaN epilayer. Finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulation is performed to explain the role of total internal reflection and scattering on light extraction. The extended defects terminate proximal to interface, leading to most regions of the nanowalls are defect free, enhancing light generation. The observation of broad HRXRD rocking curves is attributed to a mosaicity that originates due to mutual misorientation of the nanowalls. Thus, the low dislocation density in the nanowalls and their suitable geometry promotes high light emission and extraction, respectively, offering this nanostructure as a potential material for high brightness LED fabrication.
