Transparent semiconducting insulators like Ga2O3 are important materials for high power electronics and optoelectronics.
For β-Ga2O3 only little information exist concerning the thermal properties, especially the thermal conductivity λ.
Here, the thermal conductivity is measured by applying the electrical 3ω-method on Czochralski-grown β-Ga2O3 bulk crystals, which have a thickness of 200 µ m and 800 µ m. At room temperature the thermal conductivity along the [100]-direction in Mg-doped electrical insulating and undoped semiconducting β-Ga2O3 is confirmed as 13± 1 Wm−1K−1 for both crystals [1]. The phonon contribution of λ dominates over the electron contribution below room temperature.
The observed function λ(T) is in accord with phonon-phonon-Umklapp scattering and the Debye-model for the specific heat at T 90 K which is about 0.1 fold of the Debye-temperature θD. Here a detailed discussion of the phonon-phonon-Umklapp scattering for T< θD is carried out. The influence of point defect scattering is considered for T<100 K.
