Abstract

Generally speaking, gallium nitride compound semiconductor crystallization film which is utilized to manufacture semiconductor elements is formed, through low temperature buffering method, on a sapphire substrate. Through the method, a layer which is formed on the sapphire substrate is called the low temperature buffering layer, on which there is formed a gallium nitride compound semiconductor. The low temperature buffering layer which is formed by the method results in, during temperature ramp up, sublimation and re-crystallization, then is obtained, and then becomes a construction of a crystallization core which consists of GaN that is rarely spread on the sapphire substrate. However, through such a method, it is very difficult to freely control a density, shape, and size of the crystallization core which is formed. The said construction consisting, through the low temperature buffering method, of carrier gas when temperature ramp up, thermal history or growing gallium nitride is accidentally determined. The present invention manufactures group III nitride semiconductor crystallization film through a process that stacks group III metal particles on the substrate in an ambient that does not contain nitrogen source, and through a process that nitrifies the metal material in an nitrogen source ambient that does not contain metal material and through a process that grows group III nitride semiconductor crystallization on the substrate that is stacked with the metal particles. Moreover, the MO material is introduced on the substrate and after the metal core is attached to the sapphire, which is annealed later, and NH3 is introduced so as to nitrify the metal core that is formed. Furthermore, a mask layer is formed on the substrate so as to form areas that have different growing speeds in order to from a better crystallization property of the gallium nitride compound semiconductor. Through such a method, it is possible to freely control the density, shape and size of the growing core. Through controlling conditions, the shape of growing core that is finally formed can be achieved, and the growing core has ladder-shaped sectional view that is parallel to the substrate and has a flat top surface.

In addition, the heterojunction interface between aluminum gallium nitride (AlGaN) and gallium nitride (GaN) is a two-dimensional electron layer discovered by a characteristic piezoelectric effect in a group I nitride semiconductor. The potential characteristics that 11 I-V compound semiconductors cannot get. However, single-crystal nitride semiconductors are difficult to grow into single crystals due to the temperature at which the single-crystals grow at a temperature lower than the nitrogen dissociation pressure of 2000 atmospheres. For example, other group II-V semiconductors are used for epitaxial growth. As a substrate, it is difficult to make use of a single crystal substrate of a group 111 nitride semiconductor. Therefore, as a substrate for epitaxial growth, a substrate made of different types of materials such as sapphire (A 1 203) single crystal or silicon carbide (S i C) single crystal is used. There is a large lattice mismatch between these heterogeneous substrates and the I I I nitride semiconductor crystals that are epitaxially grown thereon. For example, there is 16% between sapphire (A 1 203) and gallium nitride (GaN), and between SiC and gallium nitride 546850. V. Description of the invention (2) There is 6% grid unconformity. Generally, when there is such a large lattice mismatch, it is not easy to make crystals directly epitaxially grow on the substrate, and even if there is growth, crystals with good crystallinity can be obtained. Therefore, when a Group III nitride semiconductor crystal is epitaxially grown on a sapphire single crystal substrate or a Si C single crystal substrate by an organometallic chemical vapor growth (M0CVD) method, such as Japanese Patent No. 3026087 or a special feature Kaiping 4-: 297023 discloses a method in which a layer called a low-temperature buffer layer composed of aluminum nitride (A1N) or AlGaN is first deposited on a substrate, and a III-nitride semiconductor crystal is generally epitaxially grown at a high temperature. When sapphire is used as the substrate, the above-mentioned low-temperature buffer layer is formed as follows. First, the sapphire substrate is heated to a high temperature of 100 ° C to 1200 ° C in a growth apparatus of the MOCVD method, and the surface oxide film is removed. After that, the temperature of the growing device was reduced to 400-600 ° C. At the same time, Huiren LU was supplied, and the organic metal raw materials and nitrogen source were deposited on the substrate to deposit a low-temperature buffer layer. Then the supply of organic metal materials was stopped and the growing device was raised again. At this temperature, a heat treatment called crystallization of a low-temperature buffer layer is performed, and then epitaxial growth of the II I: Group: ® compound semiconductor crystals. The stacking temperature in the low-temperature buffer layer is z 400 ~ 600 ° C. The organic metal raw material or nitrogen source used as the raw material, especially the ammonia used as the nitrogen source, has insufficient thermal decomposition. Therefore, the low-temperature buffer layer deposited at this low temperature contains many defects. Since the raw materials are reacted at a low temperature, the -4-biopolymerization reaction between the organometallic base of the raw materials or the undecomposed nitrogen source is produced, and these reactions are 546850. V. Description of the Invention (3) Crystallization of the low-temperature buffer layer. It is performed to eliminate these defects or impurities, but it is a heat treatment process called crystallization of the above-mentioned low-temperature buffer layer. The crystallization process of the buffer layer is performed at a high temperature at a low-temperature buffer layer containing a lot of impurities and defects, and at a temperature close to the epitaxial growth temperature of the group I I nitride semiconductor to remove these impurities and defects. As described above, when a low-temperature buffer layer is to be formed, a buffer layer stacking process at a low temperature and a process of crystallization at a high temperature are required. When a high-quality buffer layer is to be obtained, an optimization of the manufacturing conditions related to this temple process is required. The enumeration process of the low-temperature buffer layer is listed, and the ratio of the organometallic raw material to the nitrogen source, the temperature during the stacking, and the flow rate of the carrier gas will affect the characteristics of the low-temperature buffer layer. In addition, during the crystallization process, the temperature or time of the high-temperature heat treatment, the heating rate, and the like may affect the characteristics of the low-temperature buffer layer. For example, T. Itto et al. Reviewed the conditions for these low temperature buffer layers using aluminum nitride. (Journal of Crystal Growth 205 (1999), 20-24) In order to obtain a tube-quality low-temperature buffer layer, each of the above-mentioned manufacturing conditions must be carefully studied, and it is necessary to optimize them. Moreover, these conditions usually need to be adjusted for each growth device used by the MOC VD method for epitaxial growth. The most suitable conditions for transplanting between different growth devices often require a lot of time and labor. The low-temperature buffer layer is used to cause sublimation and recrystallization when crystallization is performed in a hot place, and the crystal core structure made of gallium nitride is sparsely dispersed on the sapphire substrate. The crystal nucleus scattered on the substrate is used as a core to form 546850. 5. Description of the invention (4) A long gallium nitride compound semiconductor and crystals generated at a moderate density are combined to form a crystalline film. That is, production of a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor layer 'having good crystallinity can be achieved by appropriately controlling the density of the dispersed crystal nuclei. However, the distribution structure of the crystal nuclei in the above-mentioned low-temperature buffer layer depends on the thermal history at the time of temperature rise or the composition of the carrier gas when growing the gallium nitride-based semiconductor layer, and it is difficult to freely control the density of the crystal nuclei only by occasional decision. In terms of shape, size, etc., the crystallinity of the obtained gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor crystal is limited. The present invention aims to provide a manufacturing method of an I I I nitride semiconductor crystal which can form a high-quality I I I nitride semiconductor crystal in a simple method instead of the method using the above-mentioned low-temperature buffer layer in order to optimize too many manufacturing conditions. In particular, a method for manufacturing a group III nitride semiconductor crystal that can epitaxially grow a high-quality group III nitride semiconductor crystal on a sapphire substrate by a simple method (the following group III nitride semiconductor is represented by InxGayAlzN, x + y + z = 0, OSy S 1, OS z S 1). In addition, the present invention provides a person who can freely control the density, shape, size, and the like of the crystal nuclei constituting a layer provided on a substrate so that the crystallinity can be made good and the crystallinity of a crystal layer laminated thereon can be made good. The purpose is to produce a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor and a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor. . Furthermore, the present invention aims to provide a light-emitting element and a light source which are excellent in light-emitting efficiency, have a slow deterioration rate, save power, reduce cost, and have low replacement frequency. 546850 V.

I族金屬原料、將I j j 族金屬原料及/或其分解生成物堆積於該基板上之第1製 程、與其後使該基板在含氮源之環境中熱處理之第2製程 、其後,使用I I I族金屬原料與氮源在該基板上以氣相法 成長111族氮化物半導體的第3製程。 於第1製程中,作爲環境中所含有的11 I族金屬原料, 可使用有機金屬化合物、金屬鹵化物、金屬等,惟其中以 使用有機金屬化合物較佳。作爲I I I族元素之有機金屬化 合物,可使用如三甲基鎵(TMG)或三甲基鋁(TMA)或三甲基 銦(TMI)或雙環戊二烯銦(Cp2In)之化合物。 又,於第1製程中以S 1、M g等I I I族金屬以外之元素 作爲摻雜之目的,在環境中可含有矽烷(s i &amp; )、二砂院 (S i 2H6)、雙環戊二烯鎂(Cp2Mg )等。 又,第1製程以在環境中不含氮源者較佳。在第1製程 中含有氨等之氮源時,成長的氮化鎵系化合物半導體結晶 膜之表面形態不會成爲鏡面。此係如專利第3〇26〇87號公 -20- 546850 五、發明說明(19 ) 報或特開平4 _ 29 7023號公報以習知技術所記載。在此作 爲惰性載運氣體廣爲使用的N2氣體係不作爲氮源。n2之分 解溫度比氨或吡啶等通常的氮源爲高、作爲氮源並不是有 效。因此,此等發明中於第1製裎之環境中包含n2氣體, k寸本發明之效果不會有大的阻礙。 又,第1製程中亦可包含氫氣、氮氣、稀有氣體等於環 境中。 又,依本發明人等之實驗結果可知,以第2製程在第1 製程以上之溫度進行時,可製作結晶性佳的Π I族氮化物 半導體結晶。再於用以進行金屬1之氮化反應,具體而言 第2製程係700°C以上、更佳爲900 °C以上之溫度進行爲 理想。特別是使用1 000°C以上之溫度可獲得良好的結晶性 又,作爲第3製程所使用的I 11族氮化物半導體之成長 方法,以使用有機金屬化學氣相成長(MOCVD )法較佳。並 由採用該方法,使第1製程至第3製程可在同一成長爐中 進行。 使用有機金屬化學氣相成長法來成長I I I族氮化物半導 體時,用來進行第3製程的溫度以1 000°C以上爲最佳。 特別是第3製程以1 1 〇〇°C以上之溫度進行時容易於得鏡面 結晶,故較佳。在含有氫之環境中進行第3製程時,有容 易控制結晶性及表面形態之優點。 再如上述,本發明所使用的基板以藍寶石爲宜,藍寶石 -21 - 546850 五、發明說明(20) 基板具有(0001)面、該( 000 1 )面之垂直軸自&lt;〇〇〇1&gt;方向傾 斜於特定方向爲理想。再者’藍寶石基板之垂直軸作傾斜 的特定之方向爲&lt;i-i〇〇&gt;方向,且自&lt;00〇1&gt;方向之傾斜角 度以0.2°〜1 5°爲宜亦如上所述。 如上述,藍寶石基板具有(000 1 )面、該( 000 1 )面之垂直 軸自&lt;000 1 &gt;方向朝&lt;1 - 1〇〇&gt;方向傾斜〇 .2°〜15°之角度時, 在基板上成長的I II族氮化物半導體結晶之表面具有 (0 0 0 1)面、且該表面之垂直軸自&lt;0 0 0 1 &gt;方向傾斜於特定之 方向。在此I 11族氮化物半導體結晶之表面傾斜的特定方 向成爲&lt;11-20&gt;方向。此係III族氮化物半導體結晶,與 基板之面方位比較旋轉30°c來成長者。此時,在基板上 成長的III族氮化物半導體結晶之表面自&lt;000 1 &gt;方向所傾 斜的角度爲 0.2 °〜1 5 °時,因由增強於分段流動成長, 故作爲製造高品質的I I I族氮化物半導體結晶之條件爲理 想。 又,此製造方法亦可包含在第1製程之前稱爲熱退火的 公知之熱處理製程。熱退火係於基板爲藍寶石時廣爲使用 、在成長爐內進行洗淨處理之一種,具體而言,一般在含 有氫或氮之環境中以1000〜1200 °c之溫度下處理基板。 又,此製造方法係可分第1製程爲數次進行。此時,以 第1次與第2次、第2次與第3次等、可改變環境中含有 的I Π族金屬原料之種類或組成、混合比等。又,亦可改 變基板之溫度或進行處理時間等之條件。 -22- 546850 五、發明說明(2〇 將第1製程分成數次實行時,在最先開始的環境中含有 的I I I族金屬原料,以含有A 1之原料較佳。A 1係在I I I 族金屬中熔點高、爲容易附著於基板上之原料◦ 又,此製造方法可在第1製程與第2製程之間及/或第 2製程與第3製程之間,可包含不含金屬原料及氮源之環 境中處理基板之退火製程。並由該退火製程可促進金屬微 粒子之集散、可形成更合適的形狀之π I族金屬微粒子。 此時,進行退火處理之溫度以π I族金屬微粒子之熔點 以上爲佳、更佳爲900°C以上、最佳爲1 000°C以上。又, 進行退火之環境係以含有氫爲宜。 於本發明,可邊改變第2製程之基板溫度來進行。在此 情況進行第2製程之溫度,不用說以氮源之分解溫度以上 爲宜。具體而言使所有第2製程全部爲70(TC以上,更佳 爲900°C以上、最佳爲l〇〇〇°C以上進行爲理想。 又,以結束的溫度高於開始第2製程的溫度爲理想。 又,開始第2製程的溫度與進行第1製程的溫度相同, 並可使結束第2製程之溫度與用以進行第3製程的溫度相 同。 又,邊改變溫度來進行第2製程時,伴隨溫度的變更亦 可有變更載運氣體之種類或流量、又爐內之壓力。 其次,依本發明之氮化鎵系化合物半導體的製造方法依 照圖面詳細說明。 第1圖係於氮化鎵系化合物半導體層形成時各製程(步 -23- 546850 五、,蒼明說明(22) 驟)之成長機構說明圖,第2圖係表示此等發明之氮化鎵 系化合物半導體層形成時的熱圖案之一例圖。 此等發明之氮化鎵系化合物半導體,係槪略以如次步驟 形成在基板上。亦即,如第1圖(a )所示首先於步驟A (第 1製程)中、在基板上附著金屬元素、較佳由I I I族金屬元 素所成的金屬核(金屬粒)S a。在此階段S a之形狀以不連 續地散佈之粒、以液狀覆蓋於表面亦可。接著,於步驟 B(第2製程),退火該金屬核Sa(第1圖(b))。並由該退火 處理,在第1製程完全未變成不連續的粒狀S a ,亦成爲 理想的不連續粒狀之形狀。接著在步驟C (第3製程),氮 化退火後之金屬核S a 1作爲成長核S b (第1圖(c ))。該成 長核Sb乃帶有爲任何形狀時,只要是以適當的密度分布 時即作爲成長核之功能者。然而,成長核Sb之形狀會影 響氮化鎵系化合物半導體層之結晶性,亦藉由申請人等之 實驗判明。特別是與基板1平行的平坦頂面及具有與基板 1成某角度相交的平坦側面之大致梯形狀的I I I族氮化物 半導體結晶爲宜。而該成長核Sb,例如留意進行氮化時之 環境氣體、爐內壓力、基板溫度或基板溫度之熱圖像可形 成較佳的形狀。 而且,於步驟D(第4製程)中,具有其成長核Sb之基 板 1上使氮化鎵系化合物半導體結晶層成長(第1圖(d )) 。該成長主要是邊伴隨轉位朝水平方向進行,並由此,確 保在垂直方向充分的層厚(例如2 // m )、又水平方向獲得平 -24- 546850 五、發明說明(23) 坦的氮化鎵系化合物半導體2 (第1圖(e ))。 上述各步驟A〜D可在MOCVD法之成長裝置內連續的進 行。而具,於實行步驟A之前如第2圖所示,例如先使由 藍寶石所成基板在M0CVD法之成長裝置內、高溫加熱至 1〇O0°C〜120O°C (第2圖爲1 170°C )進行熱淸理,除去表 面之氧化膜等。接著,使成長裝置之溫度例如下降5°C〜 2〇〇°C左右保持於一定溫度(第2圖爲11〇〇 °C),在其一定 溫度下實行步驟A、步驟B及步驟C。其次,由步驟C之 氮化處理的形成成長核Sb之途中,使成長裝置之溫度昇 溫 5°C〜200 °C程度保持於一定溫度(第2圖爲1 16CTC ), 在該一定溫度下實行步驟D,使成長核S b更成長氮化鎵 系化合物。 尙,上述說明與第1圖所示之製程爲此等發明之一例, 惟此等之本發明並不受此等限制者。例如,熱淸理可因應 於需要來進行。又,有關溫度之圖案亦不受第2圖之圖案 所限制者,因應於成長使用的爐之形狀或有機金屬原料、 氮源、載運氣體之種類、流量等採用適當之條件爲宜。具 體而言,自步驟A至步驟C之各製程的溫度可以不同,步 驟A與步驟B、步驟B與步驟C之溫度分別爲不同亦可。 又,步驟D之溫度亦可較自步驟A至步驟C之溫度爲低, 亦可爲同樣溫度。 如此在本發明之此等實施形態,係先在基板1上附著金 屬核Sa、以其金屬核sa爲基來形成成長核Sb、在其成長 -25- 546850 五、發明說明(24) 核上更予以成長氮化鎵系化合物。附著於基板1上之金屬 核 Sa,係由有機金屬氣體之流量或流通時間、處理溫度 等可控制其成長,故亦可自由地控制金屬核S a存在於基 板 1上的密度。 又,由在該金屬核Sa予退火處理,與基板之濕潤性效 果產生的集使金屬核Sa本身增大垂直方向之尺寸(Sal 在第1圖(b )),在無金屬核S a之部分產生金屬蒸發而減 少附著物形成S a 1附著部分與其間的基板表面露出之空間 所構成的基板面。並由此,可控制氮化結果所得的成長核 S b的密度爲較佳的狀態。特別是進行退火時之環境氣體、 溫度、壓力、時間等具有控制密度的效果之條件。此等條 件必須由作爲金屬核S a所附著的金屬種類或爐的形狀適 當地選擇。由本申請人等之實驗作爲環境氣體使用氫、作 爲、溫度使用9 00t以上之溫度、辨知爲實施5分鐘以上之 退火較佳。 又其後,由實予氮化處理來氮化金屬核Sa 1 ,變化成爲 氮化物半導體構成的成長核Sb。成長核Sb係如上述,取 具有與基板平行的平坦頂面與平坦側面之大致梯形狀截面 的形狀爲較佳。控制成長核Sb之形狀可以氮化處理時之 條件來控制。特別是進行氮化時之環境氣體、溫度、壓力 等對控制形狀具有效果之條件。此等之條件以作爲金屬核 S a所附著的金屬種類或使用於氮化處理的氮原料、爐之形 狀等需要適當地選擇。在本申請人之實驗,作爲環境氣體 -26- 546850 五、發明說明(25) 係氫、作爲溫度係使用900 t:以上之溫度、辨明了在氮化 製程之間使溫度上昇爲理想。 而且,在該成長核Sb上更予成長另使氮化鎵系化合物 半導體,故氮化鎵系化合物係以如埋相鄰的成長核S b間 予地成長,埋完相鄰的成長核s b間之空間後,在其上成 爲平坦層成長。因而,最後在基板上,可形成具備所希望 的層厚與良好結晶性的氮化鎵系化合物半導體2之層。 曰亥化纟豕系化合物半導體層之表面由氮化鎵系化合物覆 蓋,故與疊層於其上的氮化鎵系化合物半導體可保持極佳 良好的格子整合性,因而,在基板上藉由氮化鎵系化合物 半導體層之可形成具有良好結晶性之氮化鎵系化合物半導 體各層。而且,使用該氮化鎵系化合物半導體製造半導體 發光元件時,亦可確實地提高其發光特性。 又,使用上述方法製作的半導體發光元件,對電子機器 用、車輛搭載用、交通信號用其他電器裝置,可利用爲良 好亮度等發光特性的光源。 上述半導體所使用的基板可使用玻璃、Sic、Si、GaAs 、藍寶石等。特別是上述基板爲藍寶石(A 1 20 3 )時,有獲 得高品質的結晶及廉價得手的優點。 作爲藍寶石基板之面方位係可使用m面、a面、c面等, 但其中以c面((000 1 )面)較佳。又,本發明所使用的基板 ,以使用於第1製程前進行如有機洗淨或蝕刻之前處理時 可保持基板表面一定的狀態乃理想。 -27- 546850 五、發明說明(26) 又在第1製程中於附著基板上的金屬核之材料可使用A ] 或 Ga、In等之金屬。於此本發明係特別是,金屬核以 I n L1GavAlwr_ u +v + w二 1、〇 $ u $ ι、〇 $ v $ 1、〇 $ w g ι )能表 示之111族金屬爲理想。若金屬核爲I n uG a v A 1 w時有與使 其後成長的氮化鎵系化合物半導體之親和性高的優點。又, 此等111族金屬的金屬核亦可添加作雜質之S 1、Be、Mg 等I I I族以外之金屬。再者,由有機金屬原料之分解使金 屬核附著時,在形成的金屬核中難含有碳或氫、鹵素等雜 質,但此等亦可作爲金屬核使用。 又,金屬核之附著係可由有機金屬原料或金屬鹵化物之 熱分解、或蒸鍍或濺射等依各種方法進行。 在本發明係使控制金屬核之密度或形狀容易,故特別使 用由有機金屬原料之熱分解使上述金屬核附著的方法較佳 。作爲有機金屬原料使用含有三甲基鎵(TMG)或三乙基鎵 (TEG)、三甲基鋁(TMA)、三甲基銦(TMI )、雙環戊二烯銦 (Cp2In)之鎵、鋁或銦的有機金屬原料時可使如inuGavMw 之I Π族金屬之金屬核附著。 又,將第1製程在含氨之氮源的環境下進行時,由於有 時會產生如金屬原子之表面移動之阻礙問題,故將上述第 1 製程在不含氮源之環境下進行較佳。又於此處,作爲惰 1生的載運氣體廣爲使用的n2氣體係不考慮爲氮源。n2之分 解溫度係高於氨或吡啶等通常之氮源、作爲氮源並不是有 效。因此,於第1製程之環境中包含N2氣體,並不阻礙 -28- 546850 五、發明說明C 27) 此等發明之玫果。具體而言,作爲環境氣體可使用氫、稀 有氣體、氮等。 又,將第1製程在金屬核之熔點以上溫度進行爲佳。當 使第1製程以金屬核之熔點以上溫度進行時,在基板上使 金屬原子之移動圓滑地進行、有容易形成金屬核的優點。 再者,所謂以第1製程堆積於基板表面之金屬核,係爲 在基板表面上以連續分散所堆積的金屬之微粒子。金屬之 微粒子亦可部分的相互接合。附著於如此基板表面的金屬 核之狀態可由如AFM (原子間力顯微鏡)之測定方法觀察。 以第1製程形成的主要金屬核,係自基板面至粒子頂的 高度爲5 0人〜1000A程度,自基板與垂直方向看粒子時其 自粒子一端至端之長度爲100 A〜10000A程度,表面密 度爲 lXl06cnT2 〜lXl01(3cnT2 程度。 又,在退火之製程僅流動不含氮源及有機金屬原料之載 運氣體進行金屬核之退火時,可有效率地產生金屬核之凝 集故理想。作爲載運氣體可使用氫、稀有氣體、氮等,尤 其是氫氣具有除去金屬核表面之氧化物的作用,故最理想 。又,金屬核之退火以金屬核之熔點以上溫度,且以7 0 0 °C以上之溫度進行時因金屬之凝集有效地產生故理想。 將該退火之製程在第1製程以上之溫度來進行爲理想。 本發明人等之實驗結果,當退火製程以第1製程以上之溫 度進行時,可製作結晶性佳的氮化鎵系化合物半導體結晶 。其中,使退火製程與第1製程之溫度相同時,係可行形 -29- 546850 五、發明說明(28) 成良好結晶性的氮化鎵系化合物半導體、因藉由裝置的爐 內狀態之控芾ϋ亦容易,故實施性優異。 又,將氮化金屬核之製程在含有金屬原料之環境下進行 時,在下一製程成長的氮化鎵系化合物半導體結晶係結晶 性不良,故氮化金屬核的製程在不含金屬原料之環境中進 行爲理想。又在此等之發明,氮化金屬核之際含氮源之環 境可使用含氨或吡啶的環境。又,進行該製程之際之環境 壓力爲1000〜1 X l〇5Pa爲理想。 在上述氮化製程氮化金屬核形成的成長核,由截面透過 電子顯微鏡(TEM)解析的結果,由多結晶及/或非晶質所成 、且含有未反應的金屬者。 又用以進行金屬核之氮化反應以氮化製程爲700°C以上 、更理想以 900°C以上之溫度進行時,用以製作結晶性良 好的氮化鎵系化合物半導體結晶爲理想。 由金屬核之氮化形成金屬核,係藉可將堆積金屬核之基 板在含氮源之環境中以7 〇 〇 C以上溫度保持1〜1 〇分鐘程 度來進行。 又,使該氮化製程在退火製程以上之溫度進行爲理想。 本發明人等之實驗結果,係氮化製程以退火製程以上之溫 度進行時,可製作了結晶性良好的氮化鎵系化合物半導體 結晶。其中,氮化製程與退火製程之溫度相同的狀況,係 可形成結晶性良好的氮化鎵系化合物半導體、依裝置的爐 內溫度亦容易控制,故實施性優異。 •30- 546850 五、發明說明(29) 再於具有成長核之基板上使氮化鎵系化合物半導體成長 的製程,在70CTC以上之溫度、更理想爲以900 °C以上之 溫度進行時,有可使氮化鎵系化合物半導體高品質化的優 點。 又,氮化鎵系化合物半導體之成長製程,可採用有機金 屬化學氣相成長法(M0CVD)、分子線外延法(MBE)、氣相成 長法(VPE)等各種氣相成長法進行。特別是於此等發明, 係有薄膜成長可能的優點,故以有機金屬化學氣相成長法 形成氮化鎵系化合物半導體結晶爲理想。作爲本發明之有 機金屬化學氣相成長法,可使用含有有機金屬化合物與氮 源之氣體作爲環境氣體,可採用在1 000〜lXl〇5Pa程度 之壓力進行成長的公知之有機金屬化學氣相成長法。 又將氮化鎵系化合物半導體之成長製程在氮化處理以上 之溫度進行爲理想。在本發明人等之實驗結果,使氮化鎵 系化合物半導體之成長製程以氮化處理以上之溫度進行時, 可製作了結晶性良好的氮化鎵系化合物半導體結晶。其中, 使氮化鎵系化合物半導體之成長製程與氮化製程之溫度相 同的情況,係可形成結晶性良好的氮化鎵系化合物半導體 、依裝置的爐內狀態亦容易控制,故實施性優異。 尙,上述說明中,附著金屬核S a於基板上、在該金屬 核S a上施予退火處理,惟亦可重複進行金屬核S a之附著 以代替該退火。並由重複進行該金屬核S a之附著,亦可 適當地控制由步驟C所形成的成長核S b之密度。 -31- 546850 五、發明說明(3〇) 在此情況,由附著最初金屬核的前期製程、與進行第2 次之金屬核附著的後期製程、因應於基板1之附著性來選 擇流通原料的種類,變成容易控制成長核S b之密度或形 狀。在本發明前期製程係流通至少含有一種含鋁之有機金 屬原料、含鎵之有機金屬原料及含銦之有機金屬原料的有 機金屬原料之含蒸氣的氣體之製程,後期製程係流通與前 期製程不同含有機金屬原料蒸氣的氣體之製程爲理想。此 時,例如在前期製程予以流通附著性佳的含鋁之原料於基 板、在基板上以所希望密度形成金屬核S a ,在後期製程 流通附著性不良的G a或I n、可製作具有如在A 1之周圍上 纒住Ga或I η構造的金屬核S a。亦可使該前期製程與後期 製程交替著僅進行1次,惟以交替著進行2次以上爲理想 〇 其後,不予進行退火,由氮化進入成長核之形成,但 在此情況,亦由以適當地控制氮化可形成具有良好形狀的 成長核Sb。此係與使用退火來控制金屬核Sa 1之密度時同 樣。與採用退火時同樣,進行氮化時之環境氣體、溫度、 壓力等即爲具控制形狀效果的條件。此等條件需要由作爲 金屬核S a附著的金屬種類或氮化處理使用的氮原料、爐 形狀等適當地選擇。在申請人之實驗係作爲,環境氣體使 用氫、作爲溫度採用90(TC以上之溫度、在氮化製程之間 明白了亦可上升溫度。 又於此情況將氮化鎵系化合物半導體之成長製程以氮化 -32- 546850 五、發明說明(31) 製程以上之溫度進行較理想。本發明人等之實驗結果,係 將氮化鎵系化合物半導體之成長製程以氮化製程以上之溫 度進行時,可製作了結晶性良好的氮化鎵系化合物半導體 結晶。其中,使氮化鎵系化合物半導體之成長製程與氮化 製程之溫度相同時,係可形成結晶性良好的氮化鎵系化合 物半導體、因依裝置的爐內狀態亦容易控制,故實施性優 異。 依本發明氮化鎵系化合物半導體之製造方法,如上所述 ’在基板上附著金屬核、成長,作爲使用藍寶石基板,在 基板上形成氮化鎵系化合物半導體之成長速度慢的光罩層 、並由選擇成長氮化鎵系化合物半導體,形成結晶性優異 的膜。 製造具有良好結晶性之氮化鎵系化合物半導體結晶膜的 機構依第9圖(a )〜(g )說明。 如第9圖(a )所示,在加熱至規定溫度的藍寶石基板 1 3 1上,以流通含S i之原料氣體3與氨氣體4 ,使2個彼 此化合物間反應在氮化矽膜基板1上形成氮化矽之膜5。 該膜5之形成因從散佈在基板上的活性點開始,故在膜5 之形成初期無法形成均勻地覆蓋全體。因此,適當地控制 成長時間時,在藍寶石基板1上形成由所生成的氮化矽5 覆蓋的區域、與露出藍寶石之區域6 (第9圖(b ))。接著, 由111族元素所成的液滴狀之粒7供應於區域6後(第9 圖(c )),流通氨予以反應、在區域6生成I Π族氮化物8 ( -33 - 546850 五、發明說明(32) 第9圖(d )),以氮化矽5覆蓋的區域上沒有產生氮化鎵系 化合物半導體之成長核,自露出藍寶石面之區域6成長結 晶 9(第9圖(e)),在氮化砂膜5上朝橫方向成長(第9圖 (f ))。結果,結晶9覆蓋於藍寶石基板1全面上(第9圖 (g )),可控制由藍寶石與氮化鎵系化合物半導體之間格子 定數之不同所產生的貫通轉位之成長方向,大多數的轉位 描繪環閉住、不會朝上下方傳移,降低貫通轉位之密度形 成良質的結晶。 製作光罩層之際,除同時流通S1原料氣體與氨等之氮 氣原料氣體的方法外,預先可在藍寶石面上流通氨部份地 氮化表面,對該處流通S i原料氣體稀疏地製作單層分量 之氮化矽作成光罩層的方法。又,製造氧化矽層作爲光罩 層時,由熱淸理以活性化藍寶石表面之氧原子,對該處流 通S i原料氣體亦可稀疏地製作單層份量之氧化矽。 再者,在藍寶石基板上形成具成長速度差的層之方法, 係流通於同時加熱s i原料氣體與111族原料氣體的藍寶 石基板上,其後流通热的方法爲有效。 第10圖(a )〜(f)中表示使用該’方法時之成長過程模態 圖。首先,在加熱的基板1上流通S i原料氣體3與I I I 族原料氣體3 ’(第1 0圖(a ))。結果,S i原料氣體3與I I I 族原料氣體3 ’分解、在藍寶石基板1上以規定間隔附著矽 原子之集合體1 0與I I I族金屬之液滴狀粒7 (第1 〇圖(b )) 。其次,流通氨4時,各個予以氮化、可在基板1上形成 -34- 546850 五、發明說明(33 ) 由氮化矽所成的成長速度慢的膜5,與由氮化鎵系化合物 半導體所成的成長速度快的膜8構成的光罩層(第1 〇圖 (c))。在該光罩層上成長氮化鎵系化合物半導體9時,與 第9圖之實施例相同地,由氮化鎵系化合物半導體所成膜 8上以選擇性的成長結晶9 ,並由該選擇性成長予實現提 高結晶性。 又,弟9圖與弟1 0圖g兌明的方法,必須於形成光罩層 後之處理或成長在1 000度以上之高溫下進行。原因係在 6 0 0度等之低溫下,成由I I I族元素之金屬所成液滴狀粒 7或形成氮化鎵系化合物半導體8之際,於於發生的過程 不會充分引起遷移,故以氧化矽或氮化矽覆蓋藍寶石基板 1 或緩衝層之區域,亦產生成長發生核,變成損害選擇成

Description of the invention (13),% of sapphire. In particular, when the substrate is sapphire (Al203), there are advantages in that high-quality crystals can be obtained and they can be obtained at a low price. The surface orientation of the sapphire substrate is using m-plane, a-plane, and c-plane. Among them, the c-plane (000 1 plane) is preferred, and the vertical axis of the substrate surface is used. &lt; 000 1 &gt; The direction is more inclined in a specific direction. In addition, the substrate used in the present invention is preferably processed before the use of the first process, such as organic cleaning or etching, to keep the surface of the substrate in a certain state. As the fine particles of the group ΠI metal deposited on the surface of the substrate in the first process of this manufacturing method, A 1 or G a, I η and the like can be used. Here, the fine particles of the group I I I metal of the present invention are particularly preferably InuGavAlw (u + v + w = 1, OS 1, OS vS 1, 0 S 1). When the I I I group metal is InuGavAlw, it has the advantage that it has a high affinity with the subsequently grown I I I group nitride semiconductor. Furthermore, metals other than Group III, such as Si, Be, and Mg, may be added to the fine particles of these Group III metals. In addition, when a group II I metal is deposited by decomposition of a metal compound, the formed particles of the group I I I metal contain impurities such as carbon, hydrogen, and halogen, but these can also be used as metal particles. The deposition of group I and II metal fine particles in this manufacturing method can be performed by various methods such as thermal decomposition of an organic metal raw material or a metal halide, or vapor deposition or sputtering. In particular, it is preferable to deposit the fine particles of the group I I I metal by thermal decomposition of the organic metal raw material. As the organometallic raw material, a compound of trimethylgallium (TMG), triethylgallium (TEG), trimethylaluminum (TMA), trimethylindium (TMI), or dicyclopentadiene indium (Cp21η) can be used. By the thermal analysis of the organometallic raw materials -1 5-546850 V. Description of the invention (14) When the particles of the above I I I group metals are accumulated, there is an advantage that the metal particles can be deposited by i n s i t U. When the above-mentioned first process is carried out in an environment containing a nitrogen source containing ammonia, since the problem of preventing surface migration will occur, the above-mentioned first process is made! The process is preferably performed in a nitrogen-free environment. Furthermore, N2 gas, which is widely used as an inert carrier gas, is not considered here as a nitrogen source. The decomposition temperature of n2 is higher than that of general nitrogen sources such as ammonia and pyridine, and is not very effective as a nitrogen source. Therefore, these methods do not hinder the effect when N2 gas is contained in the environment in the first process. Specifically, hydrogen, a rare gas, nitrogen, and the like can be used as the ambient gas. In the present invention, the first process is preferably performed at a temperature equal to or higher than the melting point of the above-mentioned Group 11 metal. When the first process is performed at a temperature higher than the melting point of the group I I I metal, there is an advantage that atoms on the substrate can easily migrate and form fine particles. The particles of Group 111 metal deposited on the substrate surface in this first process are particles of Group I I I metal which are discontinuously dispersed and deposited on the substrate surface. Fine particles of a group III metal may be bonded to each other. The state of the fine particles of the Group I 11 metal deposited on the substrate surface can be observed using an AFM (Interatomic Force Microscope) measurement method. The height of the particles of the main I Π metal formed by the first process from the substrate surface to the top of the particles is 50 ~ 1000A, and when the particles are viewed from a direction perpendicular to the substrate, the length from one end to the other end of the particles is 100 ~ 10000A. The surface density is 1 × 106cirT2 to 1 × 101QcnT2. When the second process is carried out in an environment containing metal raw materials, the crystallinity of the group III nitride semiconductor crystal grown in the third process is not good, so -16-546850 V. Description of the invention (15) Make the second process It is better to perform in an environment without metal raw materials. In addition, the environment containing a nitrogen source during the second process may be an environment containing ammonia or pyridine. The pressure of the environment during the second process is preferably 1000 to 1 × 105 Pa. In addition, the microparticles of the group III metal nitrided in the above-mentioned second process are those containing polycrystalline and / or amorphous results of analysis by cross-section transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and those containing unreacted metals. . The second process is preferably performed at a temperature equal to or higher than the first process. As a result of experiments conducted by the present inventors, when the second process is performed at a temperature equal to or higher than the first process, an I I I nitride semiconductor crystal having excellent crystallinity can be produced. In addition, in order to perform the nitriding reaction of metal particles, specifically, the second process is performed at a temperature of 700 ° C or higher, and more preferably 90 ° C or higher. Nitriding of group III metal fine particles in the second process It can be performed by keeping the substrate on which the fine particles are accumulated in an environment containing a nitrogen source at a temperature of 700 t or more for 1 to 1 Q minutes. The third process is preferably performed at a temperature higher than the second process. When the third process is performed at a temperature higher than the second process, it can grow! Ί] [Group nitride semiconductors have the advantage of high quality. Specifically, the third process is preferably at a temperature of 700 ° C or higher. The more preferred temperature is 90 ° C or higher. The third process of ghail enables the formation of π group I nitride semiconductor crystals by organometallic chemical vapor growth (MOCVD), molecular wire epitaxy (MBE), gas, etc. Various vapor phase growth methods such as phase growth method (VPE) are performed. Especially because of the advantages of thin film growth, it is preferred to form UI group nitride semiconductor crystals by organometallic chemical vapor growth. The organometallic chemical vapor phase described above -1 7-546850 V. Invention Ming (16) The growth method is a conventional organometallic chemical vapor growth method that uses a gas containing an organometallic compound and a nitrogen source as an ambient gas to grow at a pressure of 1 000 to 1 × 105 Pa. Especially, the third method is the MOCVD method. During the manufacturing process, it is generally known that gallium nitride-based compound semiconductors with good crystallinity can be obtained at a temperature of 1000 ° C. The growth pattern of this type of gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor is around 1 000 ° c. The temperature is higher than the temperature below, and it is a type with strong growth in the transverse direction at a temperature above 1000 ° C. At this time, a crystal film with a good surface morphology is formed with a low translocation. The group III nitride semiconductor crystal of the present invention The second configuration of the manufacturing method is the thermal decomposition of an organic metal raw material containing at least one metal element of I η and G a and A1 in an environment that does not contain a nitrogen source in the first process, and causes the 1 or more metals 1 formed by I η and Ga and A 丨 (Metal 1 is represented by I nuGavAlw, but u + v + w = 1, 0 $ u '1, 0 € v S 1, 0 S w S 1) Deposited at a temperature T1 above the melting point of the metal 1. The next second The process is to nitride the metal 1 in an environment containing no organic metal raw materials and a nitrogen source at a temperature T2 (T2 2 T1). In addition, the subsequent third process is on the sapphire substrate on which the metal 1 is deposited. Group III nitride semiconductor (IIIII nitride semiconductor is represented by InxGayAlzN at temperature T3 (Τ3 -Τ 2) by organometallic chemical vapor phase growth method, but x + y + z 二 1, 〇 $ XS 1, 〇 $ y $ 1, 0 S z '1) Crystal epitaxial growth. By the above method, a crystal of an I I I group nitride semiconductor having good crystallinity is epitaxially grown on a sapphire substrate. In addition, this method is easier to manufacture high-quality III-nitride semiconductor crystals without the need to strictly control the manufacturing conditions, as compared with the conventional method of using a low temperature retarder. Furthermore, the present inventors have found that the above-mentioned sapphire substrate has a (000 1) plane and a vertical axis of (000 1) plane from &lt; 000 1 &gt; The direction is inclined to a specific direction, which can enhance the segmented flow growth of a better growth form of the 11 I nitride semiconductor crystal. This segmented flow grows because the specific direction that emphasizes the vertical axis tilt most is &lt; 1-100> direction, and since &lt; 00〇1 &gt; The tilt angle in the direction is 0.2. It is most emphasized at ~ 15 °, so it can be used as an ideal condition for producing high-quality π group I nitride semiconductor crystals. In order to effectively thermally decompose the organometallic raw material, the temperature T 1 is preferably 200 ° C. or higher, and T 1 is preferably a temperature higher than the melting point of the metal 1. More preferably, the temperature T1 is 900 ° C or higher, the decomposition of the organic metal raw material is close to 100%, and the deposited metal 1 is in a molten state. In addition, the temperature T3 at which the crystal growth of the group I 11 nitride semiconductor epitaxially grows is 700 ° C or more, and preferably 1000 ° C or more, which can ensure that the decomposition of the nitrogen source proceeds sufficiently. Since the above-mentioned metal 1 is deposited at a temperature higher than the melting point, it does not form a layered, granular shape on the sapphire substrate by its own surface tension, and was confirmed by observation by an atomic force microscope (TEM). Then, the granular metal 1 maintains the same shape after being nitrided with a nitrogen source in the second process. I I Group I nitride semiconductor crystals are epitaxially grown, and this grain is used as the core. Therefore, a group 1 nitride semiconductor crystal with good crystallinity can be obtained. In addition, as a result of the analysis of the cross-section transmission electron microscope (TEM), the nitrided metal 1 in the second process was formed from polycrystals, and the polycrystals were not in the range of -19 to 546850. 5. Description of the invention (18) Stoichiometric region of 1: 1 (the composition of this region is represented by I n uGavAlwNk, but it is confirmed that it contains + V +, 0 S u, v, w S 1, 0 &lt; k &lt; 1). This point is a conventional low-temperature buffer layer that supplies an organometallic raw material and a nitrogen source at the same time, accumulates at a low temperature, and is then used for crystallization at a high temperature for heat treatment, and a growth form different from the method of the metal nitride 1 method of the present invention. Point of difference. The third configuration of the method for manufacturing a group III nitride semiconductor crystal according to the present invention is characterized in that it comprises supplying a group I metal raw material on a heated substrate, and depositing a group I jj metal raw material and / or a decomposition product thereof on the substrate. The first process, followed by the second process in which the substrate is heat-treated in an environment containing a nitrogen source, and thereafter, the third process of growing a group 111 nitride semiconductor by a gas phase method on the substrate using a group III metal raw material and a nitrogen source is performed. Process. In the first process, as a Group 11 metal raw material contained in the environment, an organometallic compound, a metal halide, a metal, or the like can be used, but among them, an organometallic compound is preferably used. As the organometallic compound of the I I I group element, a compound such as trimethylgallium (TMG) or trimethylaluminum (TMA) or trimethylindium (TMI) or dicyclopentadiene indium (Cp2In) can be used. In addition, in the first process, elements other than Group III metals such as S1 and Mg are used as doping purposes, and silane (Si &), Nishain (S i 2H6), and dicyclopentane may be contained in the environment. Magnesium (Cp2Mg) and the like. The first process is preferably one that does not contain a nitrogen source in the environment. When a nitrogen source such as ammonia is contained in the first process, the surface morphology of the grown gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor crystal film does not become a mirror surface. This is described in the conventional technology, such as Patent No. 3,026,087, -20-546850, V. Invention Description (19), or JP-A-4_29 7023. The N2 gas system, which is widely used as an inert carrier gas, is not used as a nitrogen source. The decomposition temperature of n2 is higher than ordinary nitrogen sources such as ammonia and pyridine, and it is not effective as a nitrogen source. Therefore, in these inventions, n2 gas is contained in the environment of the first system, and the effect of the k-inch invention is not greatly hindered. In addition, the first process may also include hydrogen, nitrogen, and rare gases in the environment. In addition, according to the experimental results of the present inventors, it is known that when the second process is performed at a temperature higher than the first process, a group I nitride semiconductor crystal having excellent crystallinity can be produced. The nitriding reaction for metal 1 is specifically performed at a temperature of 700 ° C or more, more preferably 900 ° C or more. Particularly, good crystallinity can be obtained at a temperature of 1 000 ° C or higher. As a method for growing the Group 11 nitride semiconductor used in the third process, an organic metal chemical vapor growth (MOCVD) method is preferred. By using this method, the first process to the third process can be performed in the same growth furnace. When an organometallic chemical vapor growth method is used to grow the I I I group nitride semiconductor, the temperature for performing the third process is preferably 1 000 ° C or higher. In particular, it is preferable that the third process is carried out at a temperature of 1100 ° C or higher because it is easy to obtain mirror crystals. When the third process is performed in an environment containing hydrogen, there is an advantage that crystallinity and surface morphology can be easily controlled. As mentioned above, the substrate used in the present invention is preferably sapphire. Sapphire -21-546850 V. Description of the invention (20) The substrate has a (0001) plane, and the vertical axis of the (000 1) plane is &lt; 00〇1 &gt; The direction is preferably inclined to a specific direction. Furthermore, the specific direction in which the vertical axis of the sapphire substrate is tilted is &lt; i-i〇〇 &gt; direction, and since &lt; 00〇1 &gt; The inclination angle of the direction is preferably 0.2 ° to 15 ° as described above. As described above, the sapphire substrate has a (000 1) plane, and the vertical axis of the (000 1) plane is &lt; 000 1 &gt; &lt; 1-1〇〇 &gt; When the direction is inclined at an angle of 0.2 ° to 15 °, the surface of a group II nitride semiconductor crystal grown on a substrate has a (0 0 0 1) plane, and the surface is perpendicular to the surface. Axis self &lt; 0 0 0 1 &gt; The direction is inclined to a specific direction. In this specific direction in which the surface of the I 11 nitride semiconductor crystal is inclined becomes &lt; 11-20 &gt; direction. This is a group III nitride semiconductor crystal that grows by rotating 30 ° c compared to the surface orientation of the substrate. At this time, the surface of the group III nitride semiconductor crystal grown on the substrate &lt; 000 1 &gt; When the angle of inclination of the direction is 0.2 ° to 15 °, the growth is enhanced by segmental flow, so it is ideal as a condition for manufacturing a high-quality I I I nitride semiconductor crystal. This manufacturing method may include a well-known heat treatment process called thermal annealing before the first process. Thermal annealing is widely used when the substrate is sapphire, and it is cleaned in a growing furnace. Specifically, the substrate is generally processed at a temperature of 1000 to 1200 ° C in an environment containing hydrogen or nitrogen. In addition, this manufacturing method can be performed several times in a first process. At this time, the type, composition, mixing ratio, etc. of the Group I and II metal raw materials contained in the environment can be changed by the first and second times, the second and third times, and the like. In addition, conditions such as the temperature of the substrate and the processing time may be changed. -22- 546850 V. Description of the Invention (20) When the first process is divided into several implementations, the Group III metal raw materials contained in the first environment are preferably the ones containing A1. A1 is in Group III Metal has a high melting point and is a material that easily adheres to substrates. Also, this manufacturing method can be between the first process and the second process and / or between the second process and the third process. An annealing process for processing a substrate in a nitrogen source environment. The annealing process can promote the collection and distribution of metal particles and form a more appropriate shape of the π group I metal particles. At this time, the annealing temperature is set at π group I metal particles The melting point is preferably at least 900 ° C, more preferably at least 1 000 ° C. In addition, the environment for annealing is preferably hydrogen-containing. In the present invention, the substrate temperature in the second process can be changed while In this case, the temperature for performing the second process is needless to say that it is higher than the decomposition temperature of the nitrogen source. Specifically, all the second processes should be 70 ° C or more, more preferably 900 ° C or more, and most preferably Ideally performed above 100 ° C It is preferable that the end temperature is higher than the temperature at which the second process is started. The temperature at which the second process is started is the same as the temperature at which the first process is performed, and the temperature at which the second process is ended and the temperature at which the third process is performed can be made. The temperature is the same. When the second process is performed while changing the temperature, the type or flow rate of the carrier gas and the pressure in the furnace may be changed as the temperature changes. Second, the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor according to the present invention The manufacturing method is explained in detail according to the drawings. Figure 1 is an explanatory diagram of the growth mechanism of each process (steps 23-546850, Cang Ming (22) step) during the formation of a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor layer, and Figure 2 This is an example of a thermal pattern when the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor layers of these inventions are formed. The gallium nitride-based compound semiconductors of these inventions are formed on the substrate in the following steps. That is, as described in As shown in FIG. 1 (a), in step A (first process), a metal core (metal particle) S a formed of a metal element, preferably a group III metal element, is first attached to the substrate. At this stage S a Not connected It is also possible to disperse the ground particles and cover the surface with a liquid. Then, in step B (second process), the metal core Sa is annealed (Fig. 1 (b)). This annealing process is completed in the first process. The non-continuous granular S a also becomes the ideal discontinuous granular shape. Then in step C (third process), the metal core S a 1 after nitriding annealing is used as the growing core S b (Figure 1) (C)). When the growth core Sb has any shape, it can function as a growth core as long as it has an appropriate density distribution. However, the shape of the growth core Sb will affect the gallium nitride compound semiconductor The crystallinity is also determined by experiments by the applicant and the like. In particular, it is preferable that the flat top surface parallel to the substrate 1 and the roughly III-shaped nitride semiconductor crystal having a flat side surface that intersects the substrate 1 at an angle are suitable. The growing nuclei Sb can be formed into a better shape by paying attention to the thermal image of the ambient gas, the pressure in the furnace, the substrate temperature, or the substrate temperature during the nitridation. Then, in step D (fourth process), a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor crystal layer is grown on the substrate 1 having the growth core Sb (Fig. 1 (d)). The growth is mainly carried out in the horizontal direction along with the indexing, and thus, to ensure a sufficient layer thickness in the vertical direction (for example, 2 // m), and to obtain a flat horizontal direction in the horizontal direction -24- 546850 V. Description of the Invention (23) Tan GaN-based compound semiconductor 2 (Fig. 1 (e)). Each of the above steps A to D can be performed continuously in a growing apparatus of the MOCVD method. Before performing step A, as shown in FIG. 2, for example, the substrate made of sapphire is first heated in a growth device of the MOCVD method at a high temperature of 100 ° C. to 120 ° C. (1 170 in the second figure). ° C) for thermal treatment to remove the oxide film on the surface. Next, the temperature of the growing device is lowered, for example, by about 5 ° C to 200 ° C and maintained at a constant temperature (Figure 1 is 1100 ° C), and steps A, B, and C are performed at the constant temperatures. Next, in the process of forming the growing nuclei Sb by the nitriding treatment in step C, the temperature of the growing device is increased by 5 ° C to 200 ° C and maintained at a constant temperature (Figure 16 is 16CTC), and the temperature is controlled at the constant temperature. In step D, the growth nuclei S b are further grown into gallium nitride-based compounds. Alas, the process described above and the process shown in FIG. 1 is an example of these inventions, but these inventions are not limited by these. For example, thermal management can be performed as needed. In addition, if the temperature pattern is not limited by the pattern in Figure 2, it is appropriate to adopt appropriate conditions according to the shape of the furnace used for growth, the type of organic metal raw materials, the nitrogen source, the type of carrier gas, and the flow rate. Specifically, the temperatures of the processes from step A to step C may be different, and the temperatures of steps A and B, and steps B and C may be different. In addition, the temperature of step D may be lower than the temperature from step A to step C, and may be the same temperature. Thus, in these embodiments of the present invention, a metal core Sa is first attached to the substrate 1, and a growth core Sb is formed based on the metal core Sa. On the growth -25- 546850, the core of the invention (24) Furthermore, a gallium nitride-based compound is grown. The growth of the metal core Sa attached to the substrate 1 can be controlled by the flow rate, flow time, and processing temperature of the organometallic gas, so the density of the metal core Sa existing on the substrate 1 can be freely controlled. In addition, the annealed treatment of the metal core Sa and the wettability effect of the substrate increase the size of the metal core Sa itself in the vertical direction (Sal in FIG. 1 (b)). A part of the metal surface is evaporated to reduce the formation of attachments. The substrate surface formed by the space between the attachment part and the surface of the substrate exposed between S a 1 is reduced. In this way, the density of the growing nuclei S b obtained as a result of the nitriding can be controlled to a preferable state. In particular, conditions such as ambient gas, temperature, pressure, and time during annealing have the effect of controlling density. These conditions must be appropriately selected by the type of metal to which the metal core Sa is attached or the shape of the furnace. In experiments by the applicant and the like, it is preferable to use hydrogen as an ambient gas, and to use a temperature of 9,000 t or more, and it is determined that annealing is performed for 5 minutes or more. Thereafter, the metal core Sa 1 is nitrided by performing a nitriding treatment, and changes into a growth core Sb composed of a nitride semiconductor. The growth nucleus Sb is as described above, and preferably has a substantially trapezoidal cross-section having a flat top surface and a flat side surface parallel to the substrate. The shape of the growing nuclei Sb can be controlled by the conditions during the nitriding treatment. In particular, conditions such as ambient gas, temperature, and pressure during nitriding are effective for controlling the shape. These conditions need to be appropriately selected depending on the type of metal to which the metal core Sa is attached, the nitrogen raw material used for the nitriding treatment, the shape of the furnace, and the like. In the applicant's experiments, as an ambient gas -26- 546850 V. Description of the invention (25) Hydrogen system, 900 t as temperature system: The temperature above, it is clear that it is ideal to increase the temperature between nitriding processes. Furthermore, the growth core Sb is further grown and a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor is grown. Therefore, the gallium nitride-based compound is grown indirectly by burying adjacent growth cores Sb, and the adjacent growth cores sb are completely buried. After the interspace, a flat layer grows on top of it. Therefore, finally, a layer of a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor 2 having a desired layer thickness and good crystallinity can be formed on the substrate. The surface of the hafnium-based compound semiconductor layer is covered with a gallium nitride-based compound, so it can maintain excellent grid integration with the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor laminated on it. Therefore, Each layer of a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor layer having good crystallinity can be formed. Furthermore, when a semiconductor light-emitting element is manufactured using this gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor, its light-emitting characteristics can be reliably improved. In addition, the semiconductor light-emitting element produced by the above method can be used as a light source with good light-emitting characteristics such as brightness for electronic appliances, vehicles, and other electrical devices for traffic signals. The substrate used for the semiconductor can be glass, Sic, Si, GaAs, sapphire, or the like. In particular, when the substrate is sapphire (A 1 20 3), it has the advantages of obtaining high-quality crystals and being inexpensive. As the plane orientation of the sapphire substrate, m-plane, a-plane, and c-plane can be used, but among them, the c-plane ((000 1) plane) is preferred. In addition, it is desirable that the substrate used in the present invention can maintain a constant state of the substrate surface when used before the first process, such as organic cleaning or pre-etching. -27- 546850 V. Description of the invention (26) In the first process, a metal core such as A] or Ga, In, etc. can be used as the material of the metal core on the substrate. Herein, the present invention is in particular that the metal core is preferably a group 111 metal represented by I n L1GavAlwr_ u + v + w (1, 0 $ u $ ι, 0 $ v $ 1, 0 $ w g). When the metal core is I n uG a v A 1 w, there is an advantage that it has a high affinity with a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor that allows subsequent growth. In addition, metal cores of these Group 111 metals may be added as metals other than Groups I I and I such as S 1, Be, and Mg as impurities. In addition, when the metal core is attached by decomposition of the organometallic raw material, it is difficult to contain impurities such as carbon, hydrogen, and halogen in the formed metal core, but these can also be used as the metal core. The adhesion of the metal core can be performed by various methods such as thermal decomposition of an organic metal raw material or a metal halide, vapor deposition, or sputtering. In the present invention, since it is easy to control the density or shape of the metal core, it is particularly preferable to use a method of attaching the metal core by thermal decomposition of an organic metal raw material. As organic metal raw materials, gallium and aluminum containing trimethylgallium (TMG) or triethylgallium (TEG), trimethylaluminum (TMA), trimethylindium (TMI), and dicyclopentadiene indium (Cp2In) are used. Or indium organometallic raw materials can attach metal cores such as inuGavMw Group I Π metals. In addition, when the first process is performed in an environment containing a nitrogen source containing ammonia, problems such as obstacles to the surface movement of metal atoms may occur. Therefore, it is preferable to perform the first process in an environment that does not include a nitrogen source. . Here again, the n2 gas system, which is widely used as a carrier gas for inert gas generation, is not considered as a nitrogen source. The decomposition temperature of n2 is higher than ordinary nitrogen sources such as ammonia or pyridine, and it is not effective as a nitrogen source. Therefore, the inclusion of N2 gas in the environment of the first process does not hinder -28- 546850 V. Invention Description C 27) The fruits of these inventions. Specifically, hydrogen, a rare gas, nitrogen, and the like can be used as the ambient gas. The first process is preferably performed at a temperature above the melting point of the metal core. When the first process is performed at a temperature higher than the melting point of the metal core, the movement of metal atoms on the substrate is smoothly performed, and there is an advantage that the metal core is easily formed. The metal nuclei deposited on the surface of the substrate in the first process are fine particles of continuously dispersed metal deposited on the surface of the substrate. The fine particles of metal may be partially bonded to each other. The state of the metal core adhered to the surface of such a substrate can be observed by a measurement method such as AFM (Interatomic Force Microscope). The main metal core formed in the first process is from 50 to 1000A in height from the substrate surface to the top of the particles. When the particles are viewed from the substrate and the vertical direction, the length from one end to the end of the particles is 100 A to 10000A. The surface density is about lXl06cnT2 to lXl01 (3cnT2. In addition, in the annealing process, only the carrier gas containing no nitrogen source and organic metal raw materials is flowed to anneal the metal cores, which can efficiently generate agglomeration of the metal cores. Ideal as a carrier The gas can be hydrogen, noble gas, nitrogen, etc. Especially, hydrogen has the effect of removing oxides on the surface of the metal core, so it is the most ideal. In addition, the annealing of the metal core is at a temperature above the melting point of the metal core, and at a temperature of 70 ° C When the above temperature is performed, it is ideal because metal aggregation is effectively generated. The annealing process is preferably performed at a temperature higher than the first process. According to the experimental results of the inventors, when the annealing process is at a temperature higher than the first process During the process, a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor crystal with good crystallinity can be produced. Among them, when the temperature of the annealing process is the same as that of the first process, it is feasible. 546850 V. Description of the invention (28) A gallium nitride compound semiconductor that has good crystallinity is easy to control the state of the furnace of the device, so it has excellent implementability. In addition, the manufacturing process of the nitrided metal core is When performed in an environment containing metal raw materials, the crystallinity of the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor crystal grown in the next process is poor, so it is desirable to perform the process of manufacturing a metal nitride core in an environment containing no metal raw materials. According to the invention, an environment containing nitrogen or pyridine can be used as the environment of the nitrogen-containing source when the metal core is nitrided. In addition, the environment pressure during the process is preferably 1000 to 1 X 105 Pa. Nitriding is performed in the nitriding process. Growth nuclei formed by metal nuclei are analyzed by cross-section transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and are formed of polycrystalline and / or amorphous materials and contain unreacted metals. They are also used to perform the nitriding reaction of metal nuclei to When the nitriding process is performed at a temperature of 700 ° C or more, and more preferably at a temperature of 900 ° C or more, a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor crystal with good crystallinity is ideal. The metal core is formed by nitriding the metal core. This can be performed by holding the substrate with the stacked metal cores in an environment containing a nitrogen source at a temperature of 700 ° C. or higher for about 1 to 10 minutes. The nitriding process is preferably performed at a temperature higher than the annealing process. As a result of experiments by the inventors, when the nitriding process is performed at a temperature higher than the annealing process, a gallium nitride compound semiconductor crystal with good crystallinity can be produced. Among them, the nitriding process has the same temperature as the annealing process. It can form a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor with good crystallinity, and it is easy to control the temperature in the furnace of the device, so it is excellent in implementation. • 30-546850 V. Description of the invention (29) Nitrogen is added on a substrate with a growing core When the process of growing a gallium-based compound semiconductor is performed at a temperature of 70CTC or more, and more preferably 900 ° C or more, there is an advantage that the quality of the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor can be improved. The growth process of gallium nitride-based compound semiconductors can be performed by various vapor growth methods such as organic metal chemical vapor growth (MOCVD), molecular wire epitaxy (MBE), and vapor phase growth (VPE). In particular, since these inventions have the advantage that a thin film can be grown, it is desirable to form a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor crystal by an organic metal chemical vapor growth method. As the organometallic chemical vapor phase growth method of the present invention, a gas containing an organometallic compound and a nitrogen source can be used as an ambient gas, and a known organometallic chemical vapor phase growth method that can be grown at a pressure of about 1,000 to 1 × 105 Pa can be used. law. It is also preferable that the growth process of the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor is performed at a temperature higher than the nitriding treatment. As a result of experiments by the present inventors, when the growth process of the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor is performed at a temperature equal to or higher than the nitriding treatment, a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor crystal having good crystallinity can be produced. Among them, when the growth process of the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor is the same as the temperature of the nitridation process, a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor with good crystallinity can be formed, and it is easy to control depending on the state of the furnace of the device, so the implementation is excellent . Alas, in the above description, the metal core Sa is attached to the substrate and an annealing treatment is performed on the metal core Sa, but the metal core Sa may be repeatedly attached instead of the annealing. By repeating the attachment of the metal core S a, the density of the growth core S b formed in step C can be appropriately controlled. -31- 546850 V. Description of the invention (30) In this case, the material to be circulated is selected according to the pre-production process of attaching the first metal core, the post-production process of performing the second metal core attachment, and the adhesion to the substrate 1. The type becomes easy to control the density or shape of the growth nuclei S b. In the early stage of the present invention, a process of circulating a vapor-containing gas containing at least one organometallic material containing aluminum, an organometallic material containing gallium, and an organometallic material containing indium is carried out. The post-process system is different from the prestage process. The process of gas containing organic metal raw material vapor is ideal. At this time, for example, an aluminum-containing raw material with good adhesion and adhesion can be distributed on the substrate in the early stage, and a metal core S a can be formed on the substrate at a desired density. In the later stage, a poor adhesion G a or I n can be distributed. For example, the metal core S a of Ga or I η structure is pinched around A 1. It is also possible to alternate the pre-process and post-process only once, but it is ideal to perform the alternating process more than twice. After that, annealing is not performed and the formation of growing nuclei from nitridation is performed. However, in this case, the By appropriately controlling the nitridation, a growing core Sb having a good shape can be formed. This is the same as when annealing is used to control the density of the metal core Sa 1. As in the case of annealing, the ambient gas, temperature, pressure, etc. during nitriding are conditions that have the effect of controlling the shape. These conditions need to be appropriately selected depending on the type of metal to be attached to the metal core Sa, the nitrogen raw material used in the nitriding treatment, the shape of the furnace, and the like. In the applicant's experimental system, hydrogen was used as the ambient gas, and a temperature of 90 ° C or higher was used as the temperature. The temperature can also be raised between nitriding processes. In this case, the growth process of the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor Nitriding-32-546850 V. Invention description (31) process temperature is ideal. The experimental results of the inventors and others are when the growth process of gallium nitride compound semiconductor is performed at a temperature higher than the nitriding process. A gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor crystal with good crystallinity can be produced. When the growth process of the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor is the same as the temperature of the nitriding process, a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor with good crystallinity can be formed. According to the method of the present invention, the state of the furnace is also easy to control, so the implementation is excellent. According to the method for manufacturing a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor of the present invention, as described above, a metal core is adhered to a substrate and grown as a sapphire substrate. A slow growth mask layer is formed on the gallium nitride compound semiconductor, and the semiconductor layer is selectively grown by selective growth. A film with excellent crystallinity is formed. The mechanism for manufacturing a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor crystal film with good crystallinity is described with reference to Figs. 9 (a) to (g). As shown in Fig. 9 (a), it is heated to A silicon nitride film 5 is formed on the silicon nitride film substrate 1 by circulating a Si-containing raw material gas 3 and an ammonia gas 4 on a sapphire substrate 1 3 1 at a predetermined temperature. This film 5 Since the formation starts from the active points scattered on the substrate, it is not possible to cover the entire body uniformly in the initial stage of the formation of the film 5. Therefore, when the growth time is appropriately controlled, the silicon nitride 5 formed on the sapphire substrate 1 is formed. The covered area and the area 6 where the sapphire is exposed (Figure 9 (b)). Then, the droplet-like particles 7 made of a group 111 element are supplied to the area 6 (Figure 9 (c)), and ammonia is circulated. It was reacted to generate Group I nitride 8 (-33-546850 in area 6) 5. Description of the invention (32) Figure 9 (d)), no gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor was generated in the area covered by silicon nitride 5. The growth nucleus grows from the area 6 where the sapphire surface is exposed to grow crystal 9 (Figure 9 (e)). The sand film 5 grows in the horizontal direction (Fig. 9 (f)). As a result, the crystal 9 covers the entire surface of the sapphire substrate 1 (Fig. 9 (g)). The growth direction of through-transposition caused by the difference in the number of lattices, most of the inversion depiction rings are closed, and they will not be transferred upward and downward, reducing the density of through-transposition to form good crystals. In addition, in addition to the method of simultaneously circulating the S1 source gas and the nitrogen source gas such as ammonia, ammonia can be partially nitrided on the sapphire surface in advance, and a single layer of nitrogen can be produced sparsely through the S i source gas. A method for forming a photomask layer from silicon. In addition, when a silicon oxide layer is used as a photomask layer, the oxygen atoms on the surface of the sapphire are activated by thermal treatment, and a single-layer amount can be made sparsely through the Si source gas flowing there. Of silicon oxide. In addition, the method of forming a layer with a difference in growth rate on the sapphire substrate is a method of circulating a sapphire substrate which simultaneously heats the si raw material gas and the group 111 raw material gas, and then a method of circulating heat is effective. Figs. 10 (a) to (f) show modal diagrams of the growth process when this method is used. First, the Si source gas 3 and the I I I group source gas 3 'are flowed on the heated substrate 1 (Fig. 10 (a)). As a result, the Si source gas 3 and the group III source gas 3 ′ were decomposed, and the aggregate 10 of silicon atoms and the droplet-like particles 7 of the group III metal were adhered to the sapphire substrate 1 at predetermined intervals (Fig. 10 (b). ). Next, when ammonia 4 is circulated, each is nitrided to form -34- 546850 on the substrate 1. V. Description of the invention (33) Slow growth film 5 made of silicon nitride and gallium nitride-based compound A photomask layer made of a film 8 made of a semiconductor and having a high growth rate (Fig. 10 (c)). When a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor 9 is grown on the photomask layer, the crystal 9 is selectively grown on the film 8 made of the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor in the same manner as in the embodiment shown in FIG. 9. Sexual growth is expected to improve crystallinity. In addition, the method shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10g must be performed after the photomask layer is formed or grown at a high temperature of more than 1,000 degrees. The reason is that at a low temperature such as 600 ° C, when droplet-like particles 7 or gallium nitride-based compound semiconductors 8 formed from a metal of a group III element are formed, migration will not be sufficiently caused during the process. Covering the area of the sapphire substrate 1 or the buffer layer with silicon oxide or silicon nitride also generates growth nuclei, which damages the selective growth. Alternatively, when the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor layer 9 is formed on the photomask layer, migration at the initial stage of growth at a low temperature of 600 ° C or the like does not sufficiently cause migration, so even if the sapphire substrate 1 or the buffer is covered with silicon oxide or silicon nitride The layer of the region also produces growth and nuclear damage. As the source gas containing S! Which can be used in the present invention, silane (SiH4) or disilane (Si 2H6) can be used. The process for forming the photomask layer can be performed in a subsequent growth device for growing a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor. As described above, according to the present invention, the process includes the process of circulating only organic metal raw materials on a heated substrate, and the growth of a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor on the substrate, which is in accordance with -35-546850.5. Compared with a surface having a better crystallinity and a flat mirror-like surface, a semiconductor crystal film having a sufficiently good crystallinity can be obtained by using it as a semiconductor element. As a result, it is possible to suppress a phenomenon that is detrimental to the semiconductor element, such as a leakage of current due to a crystal growth defect in the pit portion, or a decrease in luminous intensity due to a translocation such as penetrating inversion, and the luminous output can be improved accordingly. Next, the manufacturing method of the Group II I nitride semiconductor crystal and the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor of the present invention will be described with more specific examples, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Each of the following examples uses a sapphire substrate as a substrate, and the formation of a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor layer is performed by a MOCVD method. Example 1 Describes an example of a method for manufacturing a group Iπ nitride semiconductor crystal. The substrate is a sapphire single crystal substrate with a (000 1) surface. The substrate was organically cleaned with acetone, and then placed on a silicon carbide (siC) sensor and fixed to a growth device of the MOCVD method. The growth volume of the MOCVD method is controlled by the RF induction heating method, and the sensor is inserted with a quartz tube inserted with a thermoelectric pair. The temperature of the growth device can be measured by the thermocouple. After the substrate is fixed to the growth device, it is first heated to 1180 ° C in a hydrogen atmosphere, and heat-treated for 10 minutes to remove the oxide film on the surface of the substrate. Thereafter, the temperature of the growing device was reduced to 1 100 ° C, and trimethylaluminum (TMA) was also supplied as an organometallic raw material at 1 2 ν m ο 1 / mi η in a hydrogen environment without a nitrogen source for 1 minute. . As a result, the thermal decomposition of TMA deposited sapphire-36-546850 on the substrate of the invention (35). A1 of the metal was deposited on the substrate. Subsequently, the supply of TMA was stopped, the temperature of the growing device was raised to 1 80 ° C, and ammonia (NΗ 3) as a nitrogen source was supplied at 0.2 mo 1 / mi η for 3 minutes to perform nitriding deposition of A 1. Thereafter, the supply amount of ΝΗ3 was not changed, and the temperature of the growing device was maintained at 1 1 80 ° C. Trimethylgallium (TMG), which is an organometallic raw material, was supplied at 1 40 from mol / nun. 1.1 V m epitaxial growth of GaN on the substrate. Thereafter, the substrate was cooled down to room temperature to take out the substrate. The surface of the epitaxially grown wafer thus produced was a mirror surface, and the half-amplitude pulse width of the X-ray oscillation curve of the epitaxially grown gallium nitride layer was 595 seconds. This shows that the epitaxially grown gallium nitride layer is excellent in crystallinity. Example 2 In the same manner as in Example 1, organic cleaning was performed on a sapphire substrate having a (000 1) surface, and then it was fixed to a growth apparatus for heat treatment. Thereafter, the temperature of the growth device was maintained at 1 180 ° C in a hydrogen environment without a nitrogen source, and trimethylamine (TMA) was supplied as an organic metal raw material at 1 2 &quot; m ο 1 / mi η, respectively. With trimethylgallium (TMG) for 1 minute. As a result, an alloy of Al and Ga was deposited on the sapphire substrate. After the supply of TMA and TMG was stopped, the temperature of the growing device was maintained at 1 180 ° C, and 0.2 mol / min ammonia (NH3) was supplied for 3 minutes to perform nitriding of the stacked Al and Ga alloys. Thereafter, the temperature of the ammonia-maintaining growth device was maintained at 1180 ° C, and trimethylgallium (TMG) was supplied at 140 // mol / min to the growth device to epitaxially grow gallium nitride on a substrate on which A1 and Ga alloys were deposited. . 1 // 111. The surface of the epitaxial wafer thus grown is a mirror surface, and the epitaxially grown gallium nitride -37- 546850 V. Description of the invention The half-amplitude pulse width of the X-ray oscillation curve of the (36) layer is 720 seconds. This shows that the epitaxially grown gallium nitride layer is excellent in crystallinity. In addition, when the surface of the gallium nitride layer was observed with an atomic force microscope (AFM), a list of atomic steps indicating flow growth was observed.歹 U of this atomic step presents parallel rows at evenly spaced intervals from the specific direction of the epitaxial wafer center portion to the wafer peripheral portion. This refers to the vertical axis of the (000 1) plane of the wafer &lt; ◦ 0 0 1 &gt; The part whose direction is inclined to a specific direction enhances the flow growth of the step. And the direction is &lt; 1-100> direction. Then, the cross section of the interface between the sapphire substrate and the gallium nitride layer of the epitaxially grown wafer was observed with a transmission electron microscope (TEM). As a result of observation, the metal deposited by the thermal decomposition of organic metal was used as a nitrided polycrystal and observed at the interface between the substrate and gallium nitride. The polycrystal has a hexagonal crystal system, and its height is 5 to 10 nm. System // EDS analysis shows that in the above polycrystal, the composition of A 1 and G a are different, and the stoichiometric ratio of metal and nitrogen is shifted from 1: i (the composition of the region is i nuGa, , AlwNk said, but observed that u + v + w = 1, 〇 $ u, v, w $ 1, 〇 &lt; k &lt; 1). The following experiments were conducted for the purpose of investigating the crystal growth mechanism of the second embodiment. In the same manner as in Example 1, organic cleaning was performed on a sapphire substrate having a (000 丨) surface, and the substrate was fixed to a growth apparatus for heat treatment. Thereafter, under the same conditions as in Example 2, the temperature of the growing device was maintained at 1 1 80 ° C in a hydrogen environment without a nitrogen source, and TMA and TMG were supplied to the growing device, and A1 and Ga were deposited on a sapphire substrate. alloy. After stopping the supply of TMA and TMG, keep the temperature of the growing device at 丨 i0〇t: below, supply -38-546850 V.

Thereafter, the temperature of the growing device was lowered to room temperature. As a result of observing the surface of the wafer prepared by the above method with an atomic force microscope (AFM), polycrystalline crystals of granular metal having a height of about 50 nm and a diameter of about 0.1 Am were observed. The polycrystal does not cover the entire surface of the sapphire substrate, and the polycrystal and polycrystal are flat. The epitaxial growth of the gallium nitride layer in this Example 2 is performed using the granular polycrystals as a core. In order to investigate the state of the group I I I metal fine particles deposited on the substrate surface, the following experiments were performed. In the same manner as in Example 1, organic cleaning was performed on a sapphire substrate having a (0001) plane, and then it was fixed to a growth apparatus and heat-treated. Thereafter, under the same conditions as in Example 2, the temperature of the growth device was maintained at 1 180 ° C in a hydrogen environment without a nitrogen source, and TMA and TMG were supplied to the growth device. A1 and Ga were deposited on a sapphire substrate. alloy. Thereafter, the temperature of the growing device was lowered to room temperature, and the surface condition was observed by AFM. As a result, fine particles of about 100A in height and about 500 persons in size were observed on the surface of the sapphire substrate, and the surface density was 1 × 108 cm_2. It was also observed that part of the particles were interconnected. Example 3 The same method as in Example 1 was used to organically clean a sapphire substrate having a surface of (0001), and then fixed it to a growth apparatus to perform heat treatment. After that, the temperature of the growing device was lowered to 丨 丨 ㈧ 艽 in a hydrogen environment without a nitrogen source, respectively, 6 // m ο 1 / m 1 η, 1 8 // m ο 1 / m 1 η, 1 8 // m 〇1 / mi η supplied as -39- 546850 V.

As a result, an alloy of M, Ga, and In was deposited on the sapphire substrate. After stopping the supply of the above-mentioned organometallic raw materials, the temperature of the growing device was raised to 1 丨 80 ° C, and 0 · 2 m ο 1 / mi η ammonia (N Η 3) was supplied for 3 minutes, and A1 and G a and I η were stacked.

At the same time, the temperature of the growing device was maintained at 1180 ° C, and trimethylgallium (TMG) was supplied at 140 / imol / min to the growing device, and a gallium nitride layer was grown on the substrate on which the A1 and Ga and In alloys were deposited. . 1 // m. The surface of the epitaxially grown wafer thus grown is a mirror surface, and the half-amplitude pulse width of the X-ray oscillation curve of the epitaxially grown gallium nitride layer is 620 seconds. This shows that the epitaxially grown gallium nitride layer is one having excellent crystallinity.

A plan view of the electrode structure of the semiconductor light-emitting element produced in the fourth embodiment is shown in FIG. The wafer having the epitaxial layer of the semiconductor light-emitting device structure was fabricated using the MOCVD method in the following procedure. First, a sapphire substrate was introduced into a quartz-made reaction furnace provided in an RF coil of an induction heating heater. The sapphire substrate was placed on a heating carbon sensor in a small storage chamber instead of nitrogen. After introducing the sample, purify the inside of the reaction furnace by flowing nitrogen. After 10 minutes of partial nitrogen flow, the induction heating heater was operated, and the substrate temperature was raised to 110 ° C for 10 minutes while the pressure in the furnace was set to 50 hPa. The temperature of the substrate was maintained at 1170 ° C, and the mixture was allowed to stand for 9 minutes while flowing hydrogen and nitrogen. The substrate was then thermally treated. During the thermal process, a hydrogen carrier gas is circulated to the reaction furnace as a raw material, and the container (bubble) containing trimethylgallium (TMGa) and the container (bubble) containing trimethylaluminum (TMA 1) are placed. The piping of the container) started to foam. The temperature of each bubbler is adjusted to be constant by using a constant temperature bath to adjust the temperature. The vapors of TMGa and TMA1 generated by the foaming process start from the growth process to -41-546850 V. Mingwuming (40) circulates with the carrier gas in the piping of the detoxification device and is discharged out of the system through the detoxification device. After the thermal digestion is completed, the valve carrying the nitrogen gas is closed, and only the hydrogen is supplied to the gas in the reaction furnace. After the carrier gas is switched, the temperature of the cooling substrate is reduced to 11 oot, and the pressure in the furnace is adjusted to 100 hPa. After confirming that the temperature of 110 ° C is stable, the valves of the TMG and TMA pipes are switched at the same time, and the gas containing TGa and TMA1 vapor is supplied into the reaction furnace, and the metal core attachment process is started on the sapphire substrate. The mixing ratio is adjusted to a molar ratio of 2: 1 by the flow regulator arranged in the bubble pipe. After processing for 1 minute and 30 seconds, the valves of the TMGa and TMA1 pipes are switched at the same time, and the steam containing TMGa and TMA1 is stopped. The gas was supplied to the reaction furnace. After 10 seconds, the valve of the ammonia gas piping was switched internally to start supplying ammonia gas to the furnace. After 1Q seconds, ammonia was continued to flow and the temperature of the temperature sensor was 1160t. At the temperature of the sensor During the temperature rise, adjust the flow rate of the flow regulator of the TMG a piping. Also, start the flow of SiH4. Between the beginning of the growth of the low S! Doped GaN layer, S〗 H4 and the carrier gas flow through the piping of the detoxification device. It is released from the system through the detoxification device. After confirming that the temperature of the sensor has reached 1 1 60 ° C, wait for the temperature to stabilize, and then switch the valve of TMGa and S! H4 to start supplying TMGa to the furnace and start low S i doping. Miscellaneous G aN Growth, the growth of the above-mentioned GaN layer takes about 1 hour and 15 minutes. The amount of circulating Si H4 has been reviewed beforehand, and the low Si -42-546850 will be lowered. 5. Description of the invention (41) Electron concentration adjustment of the doped GaN layer It is 1 X 1017 cm_3. In this way, a low Si-doped GaN layer with a film thickness of 2 // m is formed. Furthermore, a high Si-doped n-type Ga n layer is grown on the low Si-doped GaN layer. After growing a high Si-doped GaN layer, the supply of TMG and SiH4 to the furnace was stopped after 1 minute. During this period, the circulation of SiH4 was changed. The circulation was reviewed beforehand and adjusted to high Si The electron concentration of the doped GaN layer was 1 X 1019 cm · 3. Ammonia was still supplied in the furnace at this flow rate. After stopping for 1 minute, the supply of TMG a and Si H 4 was resumed, and the growth was carried out in 45 minutes. This operation forms a high Si-doped GaN layer with a film thickness of 1 // m. After growing a high S-doped GaN layer, the valves of TMGa and SiH4 are switched, and the supply of these materials to the furnace is stopped. While the ammonia is as it is The flow and switching valve switches the carrier gas from hydrogen to nitrogen. After that, the temperature of the substrate is lowered from 1 1 60 ° C to 800t :, while the pressure in the furnace is reduced from l OOhPa was changed to 200 Hour Pa. While waiting to change the temperature in the furnace, the supply of Si H4 was changed. The amount of circulation was reviewed beforehand, and the electron concentration of the s 1 doped I nG aN coating was adjusted to 1 X 10 17cm · 3. Ammonia continues to be supplied into the furnace at the original flow rate. In addition, the carrier gas was previously circulated through the bubblers of trimethylindium (TM I) and triethyl i 豕 (TEGa). The SiH4 gas and the vapors of TMIn and TEGa generated by the bubbling are used until the growth process of the cover layer is started. It is circulated with the carrier gas in the piping, and is discharged out of the system through a detoxification device. After that, wait for the stability of the equipment in the furnace, and simultaneously switch the valves of TMIn, TEGa and -43-&gt;, Invention Description C 42) S i H4, and start to supply these raw materials in the furnace. After about 10 minutes of continuous supply, a Si-doped In () {a with a film thickness of 100 A was formed. yN covers few layers. Thereafter, the valves of TMI, TEG and SiH4 were switched, and the supply of these materials was stopped. Next, a multiple quantum well structure composed of a barrier layer made of GaN and a well layer made of ln () 2Ga () 8N was fabricated. When manufacturing a multiple quantum well structure, a GaN barrier layer is first formed on the Si-doped cladding layer, and an lnQ 2GaQ 8n well layer is formed on the GaN barrier layer. After repeatedly stacking the structure five times, a GaN barrier layer of the sixth layer was formed on the ln () 2GaQ. (SN well layer) of the fifth layer, and the structure consisting of the GaN barrier layers on both sides was completed. After the growth of the Si-doped InnGa ^ J cladding layer, after 30 seconds of stopping, the temperature of the substrate or the pressure in the furnace, the flow rate or the type of the carrier gas is switched as a TEGa valve to supply TEGa in the furnace. After 7 minutes After the supply of TEGa, the switching valve was stopped again to stop the supply of TEG a to terminate the growth of the GaN barrier layer. As a result, a GaN barrier layer with a thickness of 70A was formed. The GaN barrier layer was grown and passed through the TM of the piping of the excluded equipment. The flow rate is adjusted to 2 times the Mohr flow rate when compared with the cover layer growth. After the GaN barrier layer growth is completed, the supply of Group III materials is stopped after 30 seconds. The substrate temperature or the pressure in the furnace and the The flow or type is still the same, switch the valve of TEGa and TMIn, and supply to the furnace -44- 546850 V. Description of the invention (43) TEG and TMI. After 2 minutes of supplying TEGa and TMIn, switch the valve again to stop supplying TEGa End with TMIn In (). 2GaQ.8N well The layer grows. An In.2Ga.SN cover layer with a thickness of 20A is formed. After the growth of the In () 2GaQ.8N well layer is stopped, the supply of Group II raw materials is stopped after 30 seconds, the substrate temperature or the pressure in the furnace, and the transport The flow rate or type of gas is still the same, and TEGa is started to be supplied in the furnace to grow the GaN barrier layer. Repeat this step 5 times to make 5 layers of GaN barrier layers and 5 layers of In0 well layers. Furthermore, in Finally, a G a N barrier layer is formed on the ln () 2Ga (). 8N well layer. On the multiple quantum well structure where the GaN barrier layer is finished, an 8N diffusion-free layer is made without doping. The supply of TEGa and GaN barrier layers is stopped. After the growth is completed, the temperature of the substrate and the type and flow rate of the carrier gas are changed under the same state for 1 minute, and the pressure in the furnace is changed to 100 hPa. It is also made to start the circulation of the carrier gas to trimethyl aluminum (TMA) in advance. Bubbler. The vapor of TMA generated by foaming is from the beginning of the growth process of the diffusion prevention layer, and is circulated with the carrier gas in the piping, and is discharged out of the system through the harm removal device.

As shown in FIG. 1 of this embodiment, a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor layer is formed on a sapphire substrate in the order of steps A-B-C-D. First, as step A, a vapor containing a mixture of trimethylaluminum (TMA) and trimethylgallium (TMG) in a molar ratio of 1: 2 is applied to a substrate, and a metal core is attached to the substrate. Step B is annealing in hydrogen, step C is flowing a mixed gas of hydrogen and ammonia, and the nitriding treatment of the metal core is performed after annealing to form growing nuclei. Thereafter, step D is flowing TMGa and ammonia to re-form the growing nuclei. GaN, and a GaN-based compound semiconductor layer including a GaN crystal film on a sapphire substrate. -48- 546850 V. Description of the invention (47) The specific steps are as follows. That is, a sapphire substrate is first introduced into a quartz reaction furnace, which is set in an RF coil of an induction heating heater. The sapphire substrate is placed in a small chamber containing nitrogen instead of a sensor made of heated carbon. . After introducing the sample, nitrogen was passed into the purification reaction furnace. After 10 minutes of nitrogen flow, the induction heating heater was operated, and the substrate temperature was raised to 1 170 t after 10 minutes. Maintain the substrate temperature at 1 1 70 t, and let the hydrogen gas and nitrogen gas flow for 9 minutes while carrying out the thermal treatment on the surface of the substrate. Between the thermal treatments, a hydrogen carrier gas flowing into the raw material is methyl gallium (TMGa). The piping of the container (foamer) and the container (foamer) filled with trimethylaluminum (TMA) started to foam. Alas, the temperature of each bubbler is adjusted by using a constant temperature bath to adjust the temperature. The piping of each bubbler is connected to the reaction path. The vapors of TMGa and TMA1 generated by the bubbling are performed until the growth process of the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor layer is started, and circulates with the carrier gas in the piping of the detoxification device, and is discharged out of the system through the detoxification device. After finishing the process, the valve carrying the nitrogen gas was closed, and only the hydrogen was supplied to the reactor. After the carrier gas was switched, the substrate temperature was reduced to 110 ° C. After confirming that the temperature was stable at 1100C, the valve of the TMGa and TMA1 piping was switched to supply the gas containing the vapor of TMG a and MA 1 to the reaction furnace. The process of attaching a metal core to the sapphire substrate t is started. The mixing ratio of the supplied TMGa and TMA 1 is adjusted by the flow regulator installed in the bubbly pipe to Morse ratio -49-546850 5. Explanation of the invention (48) 2: After processing for 1 minute and 30 seconds, simultaneously switch the valve of the piping of TMGa and TMA1 to stop supplying the gas containing TMGa and TMA 1 vapor in the reaction furnace. Still as it is, keep it for 3 minutes so that the formed metal cores are in Annealing in a hydrogen carrier gas. After 3 minutes of annealing, the valve of the ammonia gas piping is switched, ammonia gas is supplied to the furnace, and the annealed metal nuclei are nitrided to form growing nuclei. After 10 minutes of circulation, the temperature of the sensor is increased. When the temperature rises to Η 60 ° C °, the flow rate of the flow regulator of the TMGa piping is adjusted. After confirming that the temperature of the sensor has reached H 60 ° C, wait for the temperature to stabilize, then switch the valve of TM Ga, Started supply of TMG a In the furnace, the growth nuclei have grown gallium nitride. After the growth of the above-mentioned gallium nitride crystal film at 1 / J, the valve of the TMGa piping is switched to complete the supply of raw materials and stop the growth in the reactor. Nitriding After the growth of the gallium crystal film is completed, the power to the induction heating heater is stopped, and the temperature of the substrate is cooled to room temperature in 2 ◦ minutes. During the cooling, the environment in the reactor is changed from ammonia, nitrogen, and hydrogen in the same way as during growth Structure, but after confirming that the temperature of the substrate is 300 ° C, stop supplying ammonia and hydrogen. After that, the temperature of the substrate is lowered to room temperature while nitrogen is flowing, and the sample is taken out to the atmosphere. A sample of an undoped gallium nitride crystal film with a thickness of 2 # m. The substrate taken out was colorless and transparent, and the growth surface was a mirror surface. Next, the grown undoped gallium nitride crystal film was subjected to -50- 546850 V. Description of the invention (49) XRC measurement. The measurement is performed by using Cu / 3 line X-ray generation source as the light source on the (0 0 0 2) plane of the symmetrical plane and the (1 0-1 2) plane of the asymmetric plane. .—Generally speaking, gallium halide For compound semiconductors, the half-amplitude pulse width of the XRC spectrum on the (0002) plane is an index of the flatness of the crystal, and the half-amplitude amplitude pulse width of the XRC spectrum on the (1 0-1 2) plane is an index of the index density. This measurement result The non-doped gallium nitride crystal film produced according to the method of the present invention has a half-amplitude pulse width on the (0002) plane of 2 30 seconds, and a half-amplitude pulse width on the (10-12) plane of 350 seconds. All were good. The outermost surface of the gallium nitride crystal film was observed using a general interatomic force microscope (AFM). As a result, no growth pits were seen on the surface, and a well-formed surface was observed. When measuring the etch pit density of the gallium nitride crystal film, the sample was treated at 280 ° C for 10 minutes in a mixed solution of sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid. When the surface of the sample was measured by AFM observation to determine the density of uranium pits, it was about 5 × 107 cm 2. In addition, when the above process is completely the same process as the middle process, the process is stopped before the growth of the gallium nitride crystal film, and the sample taken out of the growth furnace is produced, and the surface morphology of the sample is observed by an atomic force microscope (AFM). On the surface, there is a ladder-shaped cross section of aluminum nitride crystals as growth nuclei. Embodiment 6 As shown in FIG. 3 of this embodiment, step A and step B are repeated three times alternately, and a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor layer is formed on the sapphire substrate in the order of steps C to D. Firstly, a gas treatment containing trimethylaluminum-5 1-546850 is circulated in step A. V. Description of the invention (50) (TM A 1) vapor is applied to attach a metal core to the substrate. Step B is annealed in hydrogen. After repeating this step A and step 3 three times, the gas and gas mixed gas is passed in step C, and the metal core is nitrided after annealing to form a growing nuclei, and then TMGa and ammonia are passed through in step D to form a hafnium. The core grows gallium nitride, and a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor layer provided with a gallium nitride crystal film on a sapphire substrate is produced. The specific steps are as follows. First, as in the first embodiment described above, the substrate is thermally cured, and at the same time, the thermal curing is performed in a container (bubble) containing trimethylgallium (TMGa) as a raw material, and The piping of the container (foamer) of trimethylammonium (TM A) circulates hydrogen carrier gas and starts foaming. In addition, the temperature of each bubbler is constant in the constant temperature bath used to adjust the temperature. The piping of each bubbler is connected to the reaction path. The vapor of TMGa and TMA1 generated by the bubbling is from the beginning of the growth process of the semiconductor layer of the gallium nitride-based compound to the piping that flows with the carrier gas in the detoxification device and is discharged out of the system through the detoxification device. After the thermal process is completed, the nitrogen-containing gas valve is closed, and hydrogen is supplied only in the reaction furnace. After the load gas is switched, the substrate temperature is reduced to 1 丨 60 ° C. After confirming that the temperature is stable at 1 1 60 ° C, switch the valve of the TMA piping and supply it to the gas reactor containing TIMA vapor. After 3 minutes of treatment, stop supplying the gas containing TMA1 vapor to the reactor. The metal nuclei formed were annealed in a hydrogen carrier gas for 3 minutes as they were. After annealing for 30 seconds, the valve of the TMA piping is switched and the gas containing TM A1 vapor is supplied at -52- 546850. 5. Description of the invention (51) The metal core is attached to the reactor. After 3 minutes of treatment in the same manner as the first time, the supply of gas containing TMA 1 vapor to the reactor was stopped. The formed metal core was annealed in a hydrogen carrier gas by keeping it as it was for 30 seconds. Thereafter, these processes are performed again, and the formation and annealing of metal nuclei are repeated 3 times (step A to step B). After the third annealing, the valve of the ammonia tube was switched, and ammonia gas was supplied in the furnace, and the annealed metal nuclei were subjected to nitriding treatment to form growing nuclei. After 10 seconds of circulation, the valve of TMGa was switched. Started supplying TMGa to the furnace and growing gallium nitride in the growing nuclei. After the growth of the above-mentioned gallium nitride crystal film was performed in 1 hour, the valve of the piping of TMGa was switched, and the supply of the raw materials was stopped in the reaction furnace. After the growth of the gallium nitride crystal film is completed, the power to the induction heating heater is stopped, and the temperature of the substrate is cooled to room temperature after 20 minutes. During cooling, the environment in the reactor is made up of ammonia, nitrogen, and hydrogen in the same way as during growth. However, after confirming that the temperature of the substrate is 300 ° C, the supply of ammonia and hydrogen is stopped. Thereafter, the temperature of the substrate was lowered to room temperature while flowing nitrogen gas, and the sample was taken out to the atmosphere. A sample for forming an undoped gallium nitride crystal film with a thickness of 2 "m on a sapphire substrate was prepared by the above process. The substrate was taken out as colorless and transparent, and the growth surface was a mirror surface. Next, the grown undoped was carried out by the above method. XRC measurement of hetero-gallium nitride crystal film. 定 [J is determined by using Cu / 3 line X-ray source as light source, on the (0002) plane of the symmetry plane and the (10-12) plane of the asymmetric plane. As a result of this measurement, the undoped gallium nitride crystal film produced by the method of the present invention has a half-amplitude pulse width of 300 seconds measured at (0002) and (10-12) measured at (0002) on the (0002) plane. The half-amplitude pulse width of the surface is 3 to 20 seconds, which is all good. Moreover, the outermost surface of the gallium nitride crystal film is observed with an atomic force microscope (AFM). As a result, no growth pits are seen on the surface. 1. Observe the surface with good morphology. In order to measure the etch pit density of the gallium nitride crystal film, the sample is treated in a mixed solution of sulfuric acid and orthoacid at 280 ° C for 10 minutes. The surface of the sample When measured by AFM observation, the density of the touch pits is about 7 X 107. m_2. In addition, before the above process and the middle to complete the same process, stop the process before the growth of the gallium nitride crystal film, take out the sample from the growth furnace, and observe the surface morphology of the sapphire surface with an atomic force microscope (AFM). Scattered aluminum nitride crystal blocks with ladder-shaped cross-sections are used as growth nuclei. In this example, 'the repeated formation and annealing of metal nuclei can increase the density of the metal nuclei on the substrate or control the annealing. After the metal core ^: _ shaped opportunity, so its control can be carried out with better accuracy, and the gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor layer formed according to the metal core can be made more &amp; Ming 2 shape, quality尙, in this Example 6, the formation and annealing of the repeated metal cores are 3 &amp; ^ The number of repetitions may also be 2 or 4 or more, as necessary, it may be determined as appropriate. WM Example] A and Step 7 of this embodiment is shown in FIG. 4, and steps 2 to 54-546850 are repeated alternately. 5.

After 10 minutes, the temperature of the substrate is raised to 1 170 ° C, and the pressure in the furnace is 5 0hPa. The substrate temperature was still maintained at 1 70 ° C, and the substrate surface was thermally treated by allowing it to stand for 9 minutes while circulating hydrogen gas and nitrogen gas.

After 10 minutes of nitrogen flow, the induction heating heater was activated, and the substrate temperature was raised to 110 ° C over 0 minutes, while the pressure in the furnace was set to 50 h Pa. The substrate temperature was maintained at 1 170 ° C, and a hydrogen generator and nitrogen gas were allowed to stand for 9 minutes to perform thermal treatment on the substrate surface. In the thermal process, a container (bubble) filled with trimethylgallium (TMGa) and a container (bubble filled with trimethylaluminum (TMA 1)) are filled with a carrier gas and connected to a reaction furnace. ) In the piping, foaming starts. ◦ The temperature of each bubbler is adjusted to a constant value by using a constant temperature bath to adjust the temperature. The vapors of TMGa and TMA1 generated by the foaming process start from the growth process to the piping that circulates with the carrier gas to the detoxification device and is discharged to the outside of the system through the detoxification device. After the thermal process is completed, the nitrogen carrier gas is closed. The valve and the gas supplied to the reactor are only hydrogen. After the carrier gas is switched, the temperature of the substrate is reduced to 110 ° C, and the pressure in the furnace is adjusted to 100 h Pa.
