InN films with free electron concentrations ranging from mid-10(17) to mid-10(20) cm(-3) have been studied using optical absorption, Hall effect, and secondary ion mass spectrometry. The optical absorption edge covers a wide energy range from the intrinsic band gap of InN of about 0.7 to about 1.7 eV which is close to the previously accepted band gap of InN. The electron concentration dependence of the optical absorption edge energy is fully accounted for by the Burstein-Moss shift. Results of secondary ion mass spectrometry measurements indicate that O and H impurities cannot fully account for the free electron concentration in the films. (C) 2004 American Institute of Physics.
