We have applied positron annihilation spectroscopy to study in-grown vacancy defects in bulk GaN crystals grown by the ammonothermal method. We observe a high concentration of Ga vacancy related defects in n-type samples in spite of the low growth temperature, suggesting that oxygen impurities promote the formation of vacancies also through other mechanisms than a mere reduction of thermodynamical formation enthalpy. On the other hand, no positron trapping at vacancy defects is observed in Mg-doped p-type samples, as expected when the Fermi level is close to the valence band and intrinsic defects are dominantly positively charged. Annealing of the samples at temperatures well above the growth temperature is found to change significantly the defect structure of the material. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
