Abstract

The dual nature of the magnesium acceptor in gallium nitride results in dynamic defect complexes. Europium spectator ions reveal switching between two spectrally unique metastable centers, each corresponding to a particular acceptor state. By ion co-implantation of europium and oxygen into GaN(Mg), we produce, in addition, an anchored state system. In doing so, we create an abundance of previously unidentified stable centers, which we denote as “Eu0(Ox).” We introduce a microscopic model for these centers with oxygen substituting for nitrogen in the bridging site.
