Gallium nitride is expected to be a next-generation power semiconductor material due to its excellent physical properties; however, one of the challenges is the contamination of impurities during crystal growth. The sample measured in this study was fabricated using a quartz-free hydride vapor phase epitaxy, which successfully reduced the concentrations of major impurities such as carbon, silicon, and oxygen. In this research, we performed low-temperature photoluminescence (PL) measurements on these samples to investigate their emission mechanisms, and we report the results here.
