摘要
Radiation-produced defects in doped and nominally undoped n-GaN with charge carrier concentrations in a range of 4 x 10(16) cm(-3) to about 2 x 10(18) cm(-3) are investigated. Layers of n-GaN are irradiated with fast electrons at 0.9 MeV, Co-60 gamma rays and protons at 150keV. The production rates of radiation defects in n-GaN are estimated and compared with literature data. Annealing processes of radiation defects in n-GaN in the temperature range 100-700 degrees C are also discussed. The annealing behavior appears to be complicated. Two temperature intervals, from T = 100 to 400 degrees C and from T = 500 to 700 degrees C, are characteristic for modification and annealing processes of radiation-produced defects in n-GaN.
