Properties of κ‐Ga2O3 Prepared by Epitaxial Lateral Overgrowth by Alexander Polyakov, In‐Hwan Lee, Vladimir Nikolaev, Aleksei Pechnikov, Andrew Miakonkikh, Mikhail Scheglov, Eugene Yakimov, Andrei Chikiryaka, Anton Vasilev, Anastasia Kochkova, Ivan Shchemerov, Alexey Chernykh, Stephen Pearton

“…Such samples show strong persistent photocapacitance and photoconductivity, indicating the possible DX‐like character of the centers involved. For thin (5 µm) κ‐Ga2O3 films grown on GaN/sapphire templates, p‐type‐like behavior is unexpectedly observed in electrical properties and  we  discuss the possible formation of a 2D hole gas at the κ‐Ga2O3/GaN interface.…”
