Gallium nitride (GaN) is a wide bandgap semiconductor material in the same category as silicon carbide (SiC). If it were possible to grow large-diameter single crystal GaN to make wafers for processing, vertical transistors could be fabricated in a similar way as SiC MOSFETs are made today. However, gallium nitride properties make growing GaN ...

Under electron irradiation, nanopipes in GaN are found to evolve into the so-called bamboo structure and eventually into a chain of voids [Pailloux et al., Appl. Phys.

The effect of nanopipe defects on the device performance of Gallium nitride (GaN) avalanche photodiodes (APDs) is investigated and the influence mechanism is analyzed.
