Abstract

The control and assessment of doping in GaN nanostructures are crucial for the realization of GaN based nanodevices. In this study, we have investigated a series of Si-doped GaN nanowires (NWs) grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) with a typical dimension of 2–3 µm in length, and 20–200 nm in radius. In particular, high resolution energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) has illustrated a higher Si incorporation in NWs than that in two-dimensional (2D) layers and Si segregation at the edge of the NW with the highest doping. Moreover, direct transport measurements on single NWs have revealed a controlled doping with resistivity from 2 × 10−2 to 10−3 Ω.cm for Si doped NWs. Field effect transistor (FET) measurements combined with finite element simulation have shown the high mobility of carriers in the non-intentionally doped (NID) NWs.
