β¦ Synopsis
Radiation-produced defects in doped and nominally undoped n-GaN with charge carrier concentrations in a range of 4 Γ 10 16 cm Γ3 to about 2 Γ 10 18 cm Γ3 are investigated. Layers of n-GaN are irradiated with fast electrons at 0.9 MeV, 60 Co gamma rays and protons at 150 keV. 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 1C are also discussed. The annealing behavior appears to be complicated. Two temperature intervals, from T ΒΌ 100 to 400 1C and from T ΒΌ 500 to 700 1C, are characteristic for modification and annealing processes of radiation-produced defects in n-GaN.

We briefly review the luminescence properties of defects in GaN and focus on the most interesting defects. In particular, the blue luminescence band peaking at about 3 eV is assigned to different defects and even different types of transitions in undoped, Zn-, C-, and Mg-doped GaN. Another omniprese
