Unravelling the secrets of the resistance of GaN to strongly ionising radiation

Gallium nitride is a wide bandgap semiconductor which is generally expected to replace some silicon-based technologies, despite some of its properties still requiring further investigation. Here, using a two-temperature model coupled to molecular dynamics simulations, the authors investigate and pre...

Unravelling the secrets of the resistance of GaN to strongly ionising radiation
description Gallium nitride is a wide bandgap semiconductor which is generally expected to replace some silicon-based technologies, despite some of its properties still requiring further investigation. Here, using a two-temperature model coupled to molecular dynamics simulations, the authors investigate and predict the effects of strongly ionising radiation in gallium nitride, revealing the mechanism behind its unusual resistance to radiation.
