Abstract
The effect of Al doping in GaN films grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition was studied using photoluminescence (PL), time-resolved PL, Hall measurements, and reciprocal maps. An increase in the decay lifetime of the GaN band edge emission was observed with the Al-doped GaN. The incorporation of only a small amount of Al in GaN significantly reduces the point-defect-related electron scattering centre.
