Thin semi-insulating GaN demonstrated very promising results for radiation hard detectors and the charge collection efficience decreased only to 13.4% after irradiation at fluence of 1e16 cm2 og 24 GeV protons. This contribution demonstrates the properties of 12 micrometers thickness semi-insulating GaN epitaxial layers. The charge collection efficiency was found equal to 50% in non-irradiated samples. The defects were investigated by luminescence spectra and role of defects was analysed by free carrier lifetime investigation by microwave method. A set of new samples in thin (2 mkm) and thick (12 mkm) is prepared and the plan of firther investigation of this material wil be presented.
