Abstract
Embodiments of a semi-insulating Group III nitride and methods of fabrication thereof are disclosed. In one embodiment, a semi-insulating Group III nitride layer includes a first doped portion that is doped with a first dopant and a second doped portion that is doped with a second dopant that is different than the first dopant. The first doped portion extends to a first thickness of the semi-insulating Group III nitride layer. The second doped portion extends from approximately the first thickness of the semi-insulating Group III nitride layer to a second thickness of the semi-insulating Group III nitride layer. In one embodiment, the first dopant is Iron (Fe), and the second dopant is Carbon (C). In another embodiment, the semi-insulating Group III nitride layer is a semi-insulating Gallium Nitride (GaN) layer, the first dopant is Fe, and the second dopant is C.
