We examine the thermal stability of InN single crystal films. The films are not entirely stable and degrade at relatively low temperatures. No change on the surface of the film is found after heating the samples up to 500thinsp;deg;C in nitrogen atmosphere. However, if the films are heated above 550thinsp;deg;C, the surface undergoes a considerable change, owing to the decomposition and desorption of nitrogen. thinsp; thinsp;
