As trends progress toward higher power applications in GaN-based electronic and photonic devices, the issue of self-heating becomes a prominent concern. This is especially the case for high-brightness light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs), where the bulk of power dissipation occurs within a small (sub-micron) region resulting in highly localized temperature rises during operation. Monitoring these thermal effects becomes critical as they significantly affect performance, reliability, and overall device lifetime. In response to these issues, diamond grown

Gallium nitride is an important material for the production of next-generation visible and near-UV optical devices, as well as for high temperature electronic amplifiers and circuits; however there has been no bulk method for the production of GaN substrates for device layer growth. Instead, thick GaN layers are heteroepitaxially deposited onto non-native substrates (usually sapphire) by one of two vapor phase epitaxy (VPE) techniques: MOVPE (metalorganic VPE) or HVPE (hydride VPE). Each method has its strengths and weaknesses: MOVPE has
