The influence of compositional fluctuations on carrier localization in III-Nitride base alloys is an ongoing debate. Despite huge efforts in theory and experiment it is still controversial whether the In distribution in an InGaN quantum well is truly random or if small In enriched clusters are present. The progress in aberration corrected transmission electron microscopy offers new possibilities to study alloy fluctuations at atomic scale and with high precision. In this presentation we will summarize recent results obtained by aberration corrected transmission electron microscopy and scanning transmission electron microscopy. We will show that local strain fluctuations can be measured wit 1.5 pm precision. This allows even statistical alloy fluctuations and static atomic displacements to be analyzed in real space. We revise approaches to analyze alloy fluctuations from tetragonal lattice distortions. Our results on the alloy distribution of InGaN quantum wells are compared to optical properties measured by cathodoluminescence, photoluminescence excitation and time resolved photoluminescence.
