III-V group nitride system semiconductor self-standing substrate, method of making the same and III-V group nitride system semiconductor wafer
View Patent ↗A III–V group nitride system semiconductor self-standing substrate has: a first III–V group nitride system semiconductor crystal layer that has a region with dislocation lines gathered densely, the dislocation lines being gathered substantially perpendicular to a surface of the substrate, and a region with dislocation lines gathered thinly; and a second III–V group nitride system semiconductor crystal layer that is formed up to 10 μm from the surface of the substrate on the first III–V group nitride system semiconductor crystal layer and that has a dislocation density distribution that is substantially uniform.
1. A III–V group nitride system semiconductor self-standing substrate, comprising:
III–V group nitride system semiconductor crystal,
wherein the substrate has a dislocation density distribution that is substantially uniform at least at a surface of the substrate and the substrate has an average dislocation density of 5×10 7 cm −2 or less at an arbitrary cross section that is in parallel to the surface of the substrate,
the dislocation density being located up to 10 μm from an upper surface of the substrate, and
the number of dislocation lines intersecting a unit area of 400 μm 2 at an arbitrary position on the cross section is less than 400.
