The culprit of some GaN defects could be nitrogen

  

“The goal is to identify, process and characterise these dislocations to fully understand the impact of defects in GaN so we can find specific ways to optimise this material,” says Joseph Kioseoglou, a researcher at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki.

The researchers used computational analysis via molecular dynamics and density functional theory simulations to determine the structural and electronic properties of
