Abstract

Positron annihilation measurements reveal negatively charged Ga vacancies in n-type GaN and Zn vacancies in n-type ZnO. Positron trapping at other negative defects is not observed, indicating that cation vacancies are the dominant acceptors in these materials. The vacancy concentrations are the same as the total acceptor densities determined in Hall experiments, confirming the dominant role of the vacancy defects. The Ga vacancy in GaN is found as the main compensating centre over the range of four orders of magnitude of intentional oxygen doping.
