26. However, the formation energy of positively charged N vacancies in n -type InN has been predicted to be quite high; see Ref.. Therefore, kinetic effects should justify the formation out of equilibrium of a sizable concentration of N vacancies. See also C. Stampfl, C. G. Van de Walle, D. Vogel, P. Krüger, and J.
