摘要
Mg-doped p-type InN layers with different thicknesses were grown under the same growth/doping conditions so that their net acceptor concentrations were almost the same (3-6)x10(18) cm(-3), which were confirmed by electrolyte capacitance-voltage measurements. The conductivity of p-InN region embedded under high density surface electrons could be extracted through the slope of total sheet conductivity against thickness, which was about 8.1 Omega(-1) cm(-1). Then, corresponding hole mobility was determined to be about 17-36 cm(2)/V s for the hole concentrations of about (1.4-3.0)x10(18) cm(-3) obtained by providing the hole effective mass and Mg acceptor activation energy as 0.42m(0) and 61 meV, respectively.
