We report accurate energetics of defects introduced in GaN on doping with divalent metals, focussing on the technologically important case of Mg doping, using a model which takes into consideration both the effect of hole localisation and…
Understanding the luminescence of GaN doped with erbium (Er) requires a detailed knowledge of the interaction between the rare-earth dopant and the nitride host, including intrinsic defects and other impurities that may be present in the…
Optically-detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) and positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS) experiments have been employed to study magnesium-doped GaN layers grown by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy. As the Mg doping level is changed, the…
We have performed an $in$-$situ$ depth profile study of Mn-doped GaN prepared by a low temperature thermal diffusion method using photoemission and x-ray absorption spectroscopy. It was revealed from the core-level photoemission…
Charge state instabilities have been a bottleneck for the implementation of solid-state spin systems and pose a major challenge to the development of spin-based quantum technologies. Here we investigate the stabilization of negatively…
Understanding the origin of unintentional doping in Ga2O3 is key to increasing breakdown voltages of Ga2O3 based power devices. Therefore, transport and capacitance spectroscopy studies have been performed to better understand the origin of…
We uncover the origin of blue luminescence (BL) peak in Mg doped GaN thin film using a combination of experimental X-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy (XANES), first-principles calculations based on density functional theory and full…
Transitioning to solid-state ultraviolet (UV) lighting is critical for reducing global energy utilization to meet net-zero targets. AlGaN-based far-UVC LEDs offer a mercury-free, energy-efficient alternative to conventional mercury lamps,…
We study the luminescence of unintentionally doped and Si-doped In$_x$Ga$_{1-x}$N nanowires with a low In content (x<0.2) grown by molecular beam epitaxy on Si substrates. The emission band observed at 300 K from the unintentionally doped…
Mg is currently the only p-type dopant in technological use in GaN. Its incorporation into the GaN lattice is difficult. It requires a thermal treatment that only partially activates the Mg. To achieve moderate p-type doping requires high…
Mn doped semiconductors are extremely interesting systems due to their novel magnetic properties suitable for the spintronics applications. It has been shown recently by both theory and experiment that Mn doped GaN systems have a very high…
We observe unusually narrow donor-bound exciton transitions (0.4 meV) in the photoluminescence spectra of GaN nanowire ensembles grown on Si(111) substrates at very high (> 850 degrees Celsius) temperatures. The spectra of these samples…
We have grown nitrogen-doped ZnO films grown by two kinds of epitaxial methods on lattice-matched ScAlMgO$_4$ substrates. We measured the photoluminescence (PL) of the two kinds of ZnO:N layers in the donor-acceptor-pair transition region.…
The photoconductivity of GaAs structures delta-doped by Sn has been investigated for wavelengths lambda= 650-1200 nm in the temperature interval T= 4.2-300 K. The electron densities and mobilities, before and after illumination, have been…
Defect physics of europium (Eu) doped GaN is investigated using first-principles hybrid density-functional defect calculations. This includes the interaction between the rare-earth dopant and native point defects (Ga and N vacancies) and…
The electronic band structure of the (Ga,Mn)As system has been one of the most intriguing problems in solid state physics over the past two decades. Determination of the band structure evolution with increasing Mn concentration is a key…
Depopulation of the Mn$^{2+}$ state in ZnO:Mn upon illumination, monitored by quenching of the Mn$^{2+}$ EPR signal intensity, was observed at temperatures below 80~K. Mn$^{2+}$ photoquenching is shown to result from the Mn$^{2+}$ $\to$…
Polarisation doping of Al$_x$Ga$_{1-x}$N, through grading of $x$, has realised major improvements in $p$-type conductivity in ultraviolet (UV) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) compared to conventional impurity doping. However, the exact balance…
Zn in GaN forms an efficient radiative center and acts as a deep acceptor which can make the crystal insulating. Four different Zn-related centers have been by now identified, leading to light emission in the range between 1.8 eV and 2.9…
Controllable doping in AlN and its alloys is essential for deep-ultraviolet light sources. Ionization energies for donors in AlN ($\mathrm{Si_{Al}}$, $\mathrm{S_N}$, $\mathrm{Se_N}$) are high. We report first-principles calculations…
