We observed strong correlation between optical properties and transport properties in GaN. Both the intensity and the energy of near-band edge photoluminescence (PL) peak in GaN:Si vary with its mobility. Such behavior has been explained by the potential fluctuation associated with the inhomogeneous impurities or local defects, leading to the space-charge scattering of carriers and the redshift of the PL line. We also discuss the strain relaxation in GaN:Si.
