The influence of various thickness of AlN buffer layers on the strain in GaN films is studied using x-ray diffraction, Raman and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Reduction of strain in GaN films with increasing buffer layer thickness is observed. The linear coefficient for the near band gap luminescence shift due to biaxial stain is estimated to be 24 meV/GPa.
