Abstract

See full text

A method for growing a GaN crystal suitable as a material of GaN substrates including C-plane GaN substrates includes: a first step of preparing a GaN seed having a nitrogen polar surface; a second step of arranging a pattern mask on the nitrogen polar surface of the GaN seed, the pattern mask being provided with a periodical opening pattern comprising linear openings and including intersections, the pattern mask being arranged such that longitudinal directions of at least part of the linear openings are within ±3° from a direction of an intersection line between the nitrogen polar surface and an M-plane; and a third step of ammonothermally growing a GaN crystal through the pattern mask such that a gap is formed between the GaN crystal and the pattern mask.
