Abstract

See full text

There is provided a method for manufacturing group III-V compound semiconductors including at least Ga as the group III element and at least N as the group V element by using metal-organic compounds of group III elements having at least Ga in the molecules thereof and compounds having at least N in the molecules thereof as the raw materials, and the group III-V compound semiconductor crystals are grown in a reaction tube, and epitaxial layer of crystals are grown on a substrate made of a material different from that of the crystals to be grown, wherein at least one kind of gas, selected from a group consisting of compounds including halogen elements and group V elements and hydrogen halide, is introduced before the growth of the compound semiconductor crystal begins, thereby to carry out gas-phase etching of the inner wall surface of a reaction tube. Epitaxial crystals having good crystallinity and surface morphology can be obtained with good reproducibility without impairing the productivity and stability of the product property.
