The depth distribution of the transport properties as well as the temperature dependence of the low field magneto-conductance for several c-axis oriented GaN nanowall network samples grown with different average wall-widths are investigated. Magneto-conductance recorded at low temperatures shows clear signature of weak localization effect in all nanowall samples studied here. The scattering mean free path and the phase coherence time, are extracted from the magneto-conductance profile. Electron…
