It is shown that the dislocation reduction by SiNx interlayer deposition is influenced by dislocation density in the underlying GaN layers. The SiNx interlayer is very effective when the original dislocation density is high, while in the case of lower dislocation density the deposition of SiNx is not effective for crystal quality improvement. The most probable mechanism is the annihilation of bended neighbouring dislocations during the coalescence of 3D islands. The SiNx layer cannot serve as a barrier for dislocations, since it is probably dissolved during the following GaN growth and dissolved Si atoms are incorporated into the above-grown GaN layer which stimulates the 3D island formation.
