Keywords:GaN, terahertz, polarization

We measured m-plane GaN surfaces using laser terahertz emission microscopy (LTEM) with an ultraviolet femtosecond laser and found an angle depedence of THz emission due to spontaneous polarization along c direction. The present results suggest that LTEM is capable of detecting not only radiative defects but also the local surface potential and non-radiative defects that cannot be observed with PL measurements.
