Abstract

It is shown that the 0.7eV band gap recently announced for InN is actually due to a sub band gap deep level trap with |s〉 like symmetry. This level had been known in the literature, but was previously misinterpreted as a deep level trap with |p〉 like symmetry. It is also shown that proper interpretation of the absorption data for InN requires that the energy dependence of the refractive index be taken into account.
