This study was motivated by the possibility of using N resonant levels interacting with the GaAs conduction band, in GaN x As 1-x (0< x < 2.5%), to enhance the density of states effective mass (m d ) and consequently the thermoelectric power factor (S 2 σ) -where S is the Seebeck coefficient and σ is the electrical conductivity. However, it was observed that, compared to GaAs, the power factor was reduced in spite of a small increase in the m d . The influences of carrier passivation and dopant type, as well as the changes in the carrier scattering mechanism, which degrades the carrier mobility are discussed.
