ABSTRACT:
Growth of doped gallium nitride, especially p-type gallium nitride, without using post-growth processing is achieved by eliminating hydrogen containing molecules from the growth process before cooling down the substrate. Rapid cooling of the substrate with nitrogen gas prevents the reaction of p-type dopant atoms with hydrogen, and the use of the nitrogen gas also keeps the nitrogen intact within the crystalline structure.
