For non-metallic crystalline materials including gallium nitride (GaN), heat is conducted mostly through lattice vibrations (phonons). Therefore, the thermal conductivity can be reduced by anything that affects phonon physics, which includes disloions and other extended defects, intrinsic point defects such as vacancies and antisites, and extrinsic defects (impurities).

Silicon carbide (SiC) has excellent properties as a semiconductor material, especially for power conversion and control. However, SiC is extremely rare in the natural environment. As a material, it was first discovered in tiny amounts in meteorites, which is why it is also called “semiconductor material that has experienced 4.6 billion years of travel.”
