AbstractWe discuss the application of state-of-the-art first-principles calculations to the problem of defects, impurities, and doping levels in semiconductors. Since doping problems are of particular relevance in wide-band-gap materials, we focus here on studies of ZnSe and GaN. For ZnSe, we discuss our latest insights in the influence of compensation and dopant solubility on the experimentally observed limitation of the free carrier concentration in p-type ZnSe. For GaN, we focus on the role of native defects in doping or compensation of the material, with particular emphasis on the n-type conductivity of as-grown GaN.
