Problems solved by technology

However, studies have found that when p-type materials are grown by conventional MOCVD processes, high hole concentrations cannot be achieved, and Mg ions without effective doping will form defects, which will affect the lattice quality of the p-type layer.
Mg ions will also penetrate into the bottom layer in the form of defects, affecting the lattice quality of the barrier layer and even the channel layer, increasing electron scattering and reducing mobility.
