An abnormal P-type conduction is observed in our GaN-on-Si structure by Hall effect measurement, which is mainly due to the A1 atom diffusing into the Si substrate and acting as an acceptor dopant. Meanwhile, a constant n-type conduction channel is observed in LT-A1N, which causes a conduction-type conversion at low temperature (50 K) and may further influence the electrical behavior of this structure.展开更多
