Abstract

Deliberate oxygen doping of GaN grown by MOVPE has been studied. The electron concentration increased as the square root of the oxygen partial pressure. Oxygen is a shallow donor with a thermal ionization energy of 27 ±2 meV. A compensation ratio of Theta = 0.3-0.4 was determined from Hall effect measurements. The formation energy of ON of E F = 1.3 eV, determined from the experimental data, is lower than the theoretically predicted value.
