Growth of GaN quantum dots (QDs) on polar and semipolar GaN substrates is a promising technology for efficient nitride-based light emitting diodes (LED). The QDs crystal orientation typically repeats the polarity of the substrate. In case of non-polar or semipolar substrates, the polarity of QDs is not obvious. In this article, the polarity of GaN QDs and of underlying layers was investigated nondestructively by X-ray photoelectron diffraction (XPD). It is confirmed experimentally, that the crystalline orientation of polar (0001) GaN QDs follows the orientation of the (0001) sapphire substrate. In case of semipolar GaN QDs grown on source(1-100) sapphire substrate, the (11-22) polarity of QDs was determined.
