Here we report the results of an experimental study of the thermal conductivity of GaN crystals doped by oxygen with concentrations of 4 x 10(16), 2.6 x 10(18) and 1.1 x 10(20) cm(-3), carried out in the temperature interval 7-318 K. We observed the highest thermal conductivity ever reported for GaN, 269 W m(-1) K-1 at 300 K, in the sample with the lowest oxygen content. This result is explained by the renormalization of GaN elastic constants, caused by the effect of spontaneous polarization. Results were analyzed using the Callaway model. The contribution of phonon scattering by free carriers in doped GaN crystals was considered for the first time. We show that free electrons reduce the thermal conductivity by up to 32%-42% at 300 K for a sample with a 1.1 x 10(20) cm(-3) of oxygen concentration.
