1 Hydrogen in Wide Gap Semiconductor Why many types of wide gap semiconductor have n type conductivity ? K.Shimomura (KEK- MSL)

2 Impurity in Semiconductor Shallow donor acceptor Bohr radious a=  ×(m e /m*)×a 0 ~20×a 0 Ionization Energy (13.6eV) × (m*/m e )/  2 ~50meV Hyperfine constant A ~ 10 -4 A 0 Unintentional impurity difficult to study(less than ppm ). Origin of n type conductivity in wide gap semiconductors. More then 30 years old problem !

4 Production Method of GaN A lot of hydrogen ! Electric structure of hydrogen can be simulated by muonium !

10 1.Two kinds of Muonium have been clearly observed. 2.Both Muonium has axial symmetry along to [0001] axis. 3.Hyperfine constants of the observed muoniums are 10 -4 times smaller than the muonium in va cuuum. These value is well correspond to the simple model calculation for shallow donor. 4.Ionization energy of these muoniums are also similar to the ionization energy of the un- intentional donor observed by Hall effect measurements. These results indicate hydrogen could behave as a shallow donor and might be an origin of n type conductivity in ZnO.
