Abstract
The present invention provides a process for forming a bulk monocrystalline gallium-containing nitride, i.e. GaN etc., on the surface of heterogeneous substrate, i.e. SiC etc., comprising the steps of forming a supercritical ammonia solvent containing ion or ions of alkali metals in an autoclave, dissolving a gallium-containing feedstock in the supercritical ammonia solvent to form a supercritical solution in which the feedstock is dissolved, and crystallizing gallium-containing nitride on the face of a seed which contains no element of oxygen and has a lattice constant of 2.8 to 3.6 with respect to a.sub.o-axis from the supercritical solution, under a condition of a higher temperature and/or a lower pressure than the temperature and/or the pressure where the gallium-containing feedstock is dissolved in the supercritical solvent. Therefore nitride gallium system compound semiconductor device can be formed on a conductive substrate.
