PURPOSE: To obtain an Hg1-xCdxTe epitaxial crystal having a uniform composition on a substrate.
CONSTITUTION: In a device, which has a gas feed nozzle 4 for spraying gas for epitaxial growth use on the surface of a substrate (a substrate) 3 for epitaxial growth use, which is installed in a reaction container 1 and is placed on a rotating substrate heating stage 2, and is provided with a means for heating the substrate, a gas feed opening 5 of the nozzle 4 is arranged in close proximity to the substrate 3. The feed opening 5 is arranged in such a way that the section of the feed opening 5 passes through the enter 6 of rotation of the substrate 3 and covers the upper part of the diameter of said substrate 3 and at the same time, the sectional form of the feed opening 5 is formed in such a way as to become roughly a linear opening part and a gas mixing part 12 for mixing the gas for epitaxial growth use is provided at the upper part of the gas feed opening 5.
