Title:
GALLIUM NITRIDE CRYSTAL, GALLIUM NITRIDE SUBSTRATE, AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING GALLIUM NITRIDE CRYSTAL
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/027077
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A gallium nitride crystal having a main surface 1 which is inclined at 0 degree to 10 degrees to the (000-1) crystal plane and contains F, with the total content of halogen elements other than F being 1/100 or less of the F content, and which is a special main surface A that satisfies at least one of the conditions (A1) to (A3), has less specific crystal defects and high quality. It is possible to draw a first line segment which is an imaginary line segment that has a length of 40 mm and extends in a first direction on the special main surface A, and a second line segment which is an imaginary line segment that has a length of 40 mm and extends in a second direction on the special main surface A, the second direction being perpendicular to the first direction.
(A1) The facet growth region density is not more than 500 cm-2 in an arbitrary 10 mm × 10 mm square region on the special main surface A.
(A2) At least one 20 mm × 20 mm square region, in which the facet growth region density is less than 5 cm-2, is found in the special main surface A.
(A3) The value of (total area of facet growth regions)/(area of special main surface A) is 40% or less.
