We have investigated the growth of GaN on silicon (111) using AIN intermediate layers. The AIN layers are grown at 1150℃and 1050℃. Epitaxial relationship between AIN and Si is AIN (0001)[1010]//Si (111)[220]. When the AIN layer is thicker than 1μm, some cracks occur along AIN [1010]//Si [220]. When the thickness of AIN is less than 0.5μm, there is no cracks in the AIN film. Crack-free GaN is obtained using this AIN intermediate layer. However when GaN is grown onto the crack-free AIN/Si, a clear spot is observed at 0.01Q_x^* (//Si [220]) apart from Si (111) in the reciprocal space map. This reflection is also observed as a spot at 0.408Q_y^* (Q_y^*//Si [220] and Si (220) at 0.401Q_y^*). This spot indicates that there is a structure along Si [220] with the periodicity 1.7% shorter than the lattice constant of a_<S1>[110]. This result indicates that a compressive strain exists in the Si substrate.
