GaN single crystal substrate and method of making the same
The method of making a GaN single crystal substrate comprises a mask layer forming step of forming on a GaAs substrate 2 a mask layer 8 having a plurality of opening windows 10 disposed separate from each other; and an epitaxial layer growing step of growing on the mask layer 8 an epitaxial layer 12 made of GaN.
1. A method of making a hexagonal, n type GaN single crystal substrate comprising:
a mask layer forming step of forming on a 111 plane of a GaAs substrate, a mask layer having a plurality of opening windows disposed separate from each other; and
an epitaxial layer growing step of growing on said mask layer an epitaxial layer made of GaN,
wherein said epitaxial layer is grown in said epitaxial layer growing step so as to form an ingot of n type, hexagonal single crystal GaN,
said method further comprising a cutting step of cutting said ingot into a plurality of sheets.
2. A method of making a crystal substrate as claimed in claim 1 wherein said crystal is grown according to an HVPE method.
3. A method of making a hexagonal, n type GaN single crystal substrate comprising:
a mask layer forming step of forming on a 111 plane of a GaAs substrate a mask layer having a plurality of opening windows disposed separate from each other; and
an epitaxial layer growing step of growing on said mask layer an epitaxial layer made of GaN,
wherein said epitaxial layer is grown in said epitaxial layer growing step so as to form an ingot of n type, hexagonal single crystal GaN,
said method further comprising a cleaving step of cleaving said ingot into a plurality of sheets.
4. A method of making a crystal substrate as claimed in claim 3 wherein said crystal is grown according to an HVPE method.
