Abstract
Intentionally produced inversion domain boundaries in GaN have been reported to be highly efficient shallow recombination centers. This letter report a rationale for this phenomenon based on ab initio density-functional calculations. A model is also proposed, based on the existence of polarization in GaN, of the observation that a domain boundary acts as a rectifying junction under voltage applied between the two opposite-polarity surfaces.
