10Cm
-2About.Present main method is to adopt methods such as horizontal extension, suspension extension, is aided with HVPE two-forty epitaxy technology growth thick film, at last former substrate is removed, thereby is obtained the lower self-supporting GaN substrate material of dislocation desity.Up to now, the self-supporting GaN substrate that the HVPE growth obtains, dislocation desity is lower than 10
6Cm
-2, area has reached 2 inches.But still can not satisfy the demand of practical application far away.
Because GaN can only be grown on foreign substrate such as the substrates such as sapphire, silicon, lattice mismatch and thermal mismatching cause GaN film inside to have big stress, cause GaN base device performance to be difficult to improve.In addition, huge stress can cause GaN thick film and foreign substrate splinter, thereby can't use.Therefore reducing perhaps and eliminate the stress in the GaN thick film, is the important solution of effectively bringing into play GaN material potential.The present invention has provided stress and the method and the technology that obtain self-supporting GaN substrate in reduction hydride gas-phase epitaxy (HVPE) the growing semiconductor material GaN thin-film material.
