Optical, morphological and electrical characteristics of thisstructure are determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Photoluminecanse (PL),Ultraviolet (UV-Vis.), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) and Hall- Resistivitymeasurements. By using XRD method, 2θ, Full Width at Half Maximun (FWHM),lattice parameters, crystallite size, strain, stress and dislocation values arecalculated on symmetric and asymmetric planes. Direct band gap of GaN isdetermined by PL measurements as 3.24 eV. It is seen that conduction of AlGaNlayer starts at 360 nm in UV-Vis. In Hall-Resistivity measurements, it isnoticed that carrier density of HEMT structure is not effected by temperatureand mobility value is high. Carrier density and mobility values are determinedas 5.82x1015 1/cm3 and 1198 cm2/Vs at roomtemperature respectively. At the lowest temperature point (25 K) they arecalculated as 5.19x1015 1/cm3 and 6579 cm2/Vs,respectively.
