GaN-based heterostructures are well-suited for the application in high-power electronics. In particular, epitaxially grown AlGaN/GaN heterojunctions can be utilised in high electron mobility transistors (HEMT) targeted on high-power application. The intrinsic material properties of AlGaN and GaN generate a two dimensional electron gas with a high electron mobility at the interface of the heterojunction. In order to gain a comprehensive understanding of the two dimensional electron gas we carried out temperature dependent magnetoresistance measurements in the temperature range from 1.5 K to 300 K. We report on quantum correction to the classical conductance, in particular weak localization, electron-electron-interaction, and Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations.
