This work presents an optical characterization by luminescence and reflectivity
of GaN layers grown on sapphire using MOVPE, HVPE and GSMBE. Well resolved
optical spectra are obtained for each growth technique. The luminescence of Mg
doped MOVPE grown GaN is also studied. A Mg acceptor optical depth of ~ 260
meV is obtained.
