Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we have focused on the research and development of the growth of free standing large sized semipolar {20-2-1} GaN substrate, which are promising for realizing high performance optical and power devices. A {20-21} GaN was grown from a c-plane-like sapphire sidewall of {22-43} patterned sapphire substrates (PSS) by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) and hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE). On the other hand, a {20-2-1} GaN was grown from a nitrided c-plane-like sapphire sidewall of {22-43} PSS by MOVPE. However, the {20-2-1} GaN was not grown on the PSS with good reproducibility. We demonstrated the thick growth of a {20-2-1} GaN on the back surface of {20-21} GaN substrate by HVPE. We found that the dark spot density in the {20-2-1} GaN layer decreased more rapidly than that in the {20-21} GaN layer as growth thickness increased.
