Description

1221638 玖、發明說明 (發明說明應敘明:發明所屬之技術領域、先前技術、內容、實施方式及圖式簡單說明) [發明所屬之技術領域] 本發明係關於發光二極體(LED)、雷射二極體(LD )、電子 裝置等之製作上所使用之結晶性良好的第I〗〗族氮化物半 導體(以下,第III族氮化物半導體以InGaA1N表示之)結 晶及其製造方法。尤其是,關於適合用以使結晶性良好之 第ΠI族氮化物半導體結晶在藍寶石基板上進行磊晶成長 之第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶之製造方法。 [先前技術] 第ΠΙ族氮化物半導體因具有相當於可見光至紫外光區 域之能量直接轉移型的帶狀間隙而可實施高效率發光,故 被應用於LED及LD之製品化上。又,鋁氮化鎵(AlGaN)及 氮化鎵(G aN )之異質連接界面上,會發現第I I I族氮化物半 導體特有之壓電效應所導致之2次元電子層等,使電子裝 置獲得傳統之第I I I -第V族化合物半導體無法得到之特性 的位勢。 然而,第Π I族氮化物半導體在單結晶之育成溫度會有 達到2000氣壓之氮解離壓力,故單結晶之育成十分困難, 想要將第Π I族氮化物半導體之單結晶基板和其他第I I I -第V族化合物半導體一樣應用爲磊晶成長用基板,以現狀 而言,有其實質上之困難。因此,磊晶成長用基板會使用 由藍寶石(A 1 2 0 3 )單結晶及碳化矽(S i C )單結晶等異種材質 -6 - 1221638 所構成之基板。 這些異種基板、及在其上進行磊晶成長之第I I I族氮化 物半導體結晶間,會存在相當大之晶格失配。例如,藍寶 石(A 1 2 0 3 )及氮化鎵(GaN)之間存在16%、SiC及氮化鎵之間 則存在6%之晶格失配。一般而言,存在此種較大之晶格失 配時,在基板上實施結晶之直接磊晶成長會較爲困難,即 使可成長,亦無法獲得結晶性良好之結晶。因此,有機金 屬化學汽相成長(MOCVD )法在藍寶石單結晶基板及S i C單結 晶基板上實施第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶之磊晶成長時, 如日本特許第3 026 08 7號公報及日本特開平4 - 297023號公 報所不,一般會使用下述方法,先在基板上層疊由氮化銘 (A1N)或AlGaN所構成之被稱爲低溫緩衝層之層,然後在其 上以高溫實施第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶之磊晶成長。 又,除了利用上述低溫緩衝層之成長方法以外,尙有如 P. Kung,e t a 1 . , Applied Physics Letters, M_( 1 9 9 5 ), 29 5 8 .及日本特開平 9- 6 447 7等所示,在基板上形成在 900°C至1 200°C程度之高溫溫度範圍內成長之A1N層,然後 在其上實施氮化鎵之成長的方法。 [發明內容] 使用藍寶石當做基板時,大致可以下述方式形成上述低 溫緩衝層。 首先,在M0CVD法之成長裝置內將藍寶石基板加熱至 1 000 °C〜1 200 °C之高溫,除去表面之氧化膜等。其後,降 低成長裝置之溫度,在4 0 0〜6 0 0 °C程度之溫度,對基板上 -7- 1221638 以V / I I I比爲3 Ο Ο 0〜1 Ο Ο Ο 0同時供應有機金屬原料及氮源 ,層疊低溫緩衝層。此時,V / I I I比係指,以MOCVD法實 施第I I I -第V族化合物半導體結晶之成長時,流通於反應 爐之含有第III族元素之分子的莫耳數、及含有第V族元 素之分子的莫耳數之比率。例如,使用TMGa及氨實施氮化 鎵之成長時,流通於反應爐內之TMG a的莫耳數及氨之莫耳 數之比。其後,停止供應有機金屬原料,再度提高成長裝 置之溫度,對低溫緩衝層實施被稱爲晶化之熱處理,然後 ,再實施目的之第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶的磊晶成長。 低溫緩衝層之層疊溫度4 0 0 °C〜6 0 0 °C下,當做原料使用 之有機金屬原料及氮源一尤其是當做氮源使用之氨的熱分 解會不夠充份。因此,如以此低溫實施層疊的話,低溫緩 衝層內會含有許多缺陷。又,因在低溫下使原料進行反應 ,原料之有機金屬的烷基、及未分解之氮源之間會產生聚 合反應,故低溫緩衝層之結晶中亦含有許多此種反應物等 之雜質。 爲了消除這些缺陷及雜質,會對低溫緩衝層實施被稱爲 晶化之熱處理的步驟。緩衝層之晶化步驟,係對含有許多 雜質及缺陷之低溫緩衝層,以接近第II I族氮化物半導體 結晶之磊晶成長溫度的高溫實施熱處理,除去這些雜質及 缺陷。 如以上所示,使用於低溫緩衝層之成長方法,必須將基 板溫度降低爲熱淸洗溫度之1 2 0 0 °C至使緩衝層成長之溫度 5〇0°C附近,接著,在相對較短之時間內,使溫度從5 00 t - 8 - 1221638 附近上昇至實施退火之1 〇 〇 〇 °c附近的溫度區域。此時,一 般而言,以冷卻爲目的之溫度變動較需較長的時間,而快 速使溫度上昇則需要較多之能量。 又,因爲必須使基板承受如上所示之各種溫度變化,基 板會出現反翹。又,基板有時更會因爲反翹而裂開或產生 裂紋。又,基板之反翹亦會對其上成長之結晶層產生影響 ,尤其是製作LED構造時,基板面內會出現發光波長及發 光強度不均一的情形。 又,相對於上述使用低溫緩衝層之成長方法,亦有人提 出在基板上形成在900 °c至1 2 00°C程度之高溫的溫度範圍 下成長之A1N,然後再在其上實施氮化鎵之成長的方法(例 如,Ρ· K u n g , et al. , Applied Physics Letters, 6 6 ( 1 9 9 5 ), 2 9 5 8 ·等)。在前面之例中,記載著利用此方法可製作(〇 〇 〇 2 ) 面之X射線搖擺曲線爲3 0 a r c s e c之非常良好的結晶。然而 ,依據我們針對此手法進行試驗的結果,發現以此手法製 作之氮化鎵結晶膜係柱性極高之結晶,結晶內含有許多晶 粒間界。此種結晶從基板朝向表面產生之貫通移位的密度 相當高。因此,製作發光元件及電子裝置等之元件構造時 亦無獲得良好特性。 又,使用同樣在高溫下製作之A1N層的成長方法,在日 本特開平9-64477中亦有陳述。該文獻中,期望製作之第 I I I族氮化物半導體結晶爲結晶性良好之單結晶。而我們 在經過重複實驗後,發現該文陳述之使用良好單結晶A 1 N 膜之成長方法,和上述文獻記載方法相同,製作元件構造 -9- 1221638 時無法成長具有良好特性之結晶。因爲將結晶性良好之單 結晶層當做緩衝層使用,而在其上實施第I I I族氮化物半 導體之成長時’成長初期附著之原子無法順利遷移,而不 易獲得2次元之成長。 如上所示’因爲製作元件時無法獲得具有充份結晶性之 第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶,故使用高溫下成長之A丨N緩 衝層的第Π I族氮化物半導體結晶之成長方法,以目前而 言並不普遍。 本發明提供可以溫度變化較少之步驟來形成高品質之第 I I I族氮化物半導體結晶的第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶製 造方法’可用以取代必須設定許多溫度區域之使用低溫緩 衝層的方法、及製作之結晶有品質問題之使用高溫A丨N層 的方法。尤其是,提供可在藍寶石基板上實施高品質第I I I 族氮化物半導體結晶之磊晶成長的第Π I族氮化物半導體 結晶製造方法。又,本發明可提供利用前述第丨丨丨族氮化 物半導體結晶之製造方法所製造之高品質第I I I族氮化物 半導體結晶、以及使用該第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶之第 111族氮化物半導體磊晶晶圓。 本發明係 (1 )具有:對經過加熱之基板上,供應V / I I I比爲1 0 0 0 以下(含V / I 11比爲〇時)之第111族原料,形成第π I族 氮化物半導體(以下,第I I I族氮化物半導體以I n G a A 1 N表 示之)之第1步驟;以及其後使用第I I I族原料及氮原料, 在該基板上實施第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶之汽相成長的 -10- 1221638 第2步驟;之第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶之製造方法。 (2)前述基板使用藍寶石(Al2〇3)之如上述(1)之第In族 氮化物半導體結晶之製造方法。 (3 )前述第1步驟提供之第π〗族原料至少含有a丨之如 上述(1 )或(2 )之第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶之製造方法。 (4 )則述第2步驟中,在基板上實施汽相成長之第I〗丨族 氮化物半導體結晶係由GaN所構成之如上述(1 )至(3 )之其 中任一項之第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶之製造方法。 (5)前述第1步驟或第2步驟之至少一方,會以有機金屬 化學汽相成長法(MOCVD法)實施汽相成長之如上述(丨)至(4) 之其中任一項之第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶之製造方法。 (6 )前述第2步驟之氮原料係使用氨(NH3)之如上述(1 )至 (5 )之其中任一項之第〗ί丨族氮化物半導體結晶之製造方法 〇 (7 )前述第1步驟形成之第π丨族氮化物半導體係島狀結 晶塊之如上述(1 )至(6 )之其中任一項之第I I I族氮化物半 導體結晶之製造方法。 (8 )前述第1步驟形成之第π ][族氮化物半導體係柱狀結 晶之如上述(1 )至(7 )之其中任一項之第I I I族氮化物半導 體結晶之製造方法。 (9 )前述柱狀結晶之側面係以大致垂直於基板面之方式附 著於基板上之如上述(8 )之第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶之製 造方法。 又,本發明係 -11- 1221638 (1 Ο )在經過加熱之基板上製做第1第I I I族氮化物半導 體,並在其上製作第2第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶之第I I I 族氮化物半導體結品之製造方法,其特徵爲··第1第I I I 族氮化物半導體爲柱狀結晶或島狀結晶之集合體。 (1 1 )前述柱狀結晶之側面係以大致垂直於基板面之方式 附著於基板上之如上述(1 0 )之第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶 之製造方法。 又,本發明係 (1 2 )以如上述(1 )至(1 1 )之方法製造之第I I I族氮化物半 導體結晶。 又,本發明係 (1 3 )在如上述(1 2 )之第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶上更進 一步形成弟III族氣化物半導體結晶層之第III族氮化物 半導體嘉晶晶圓。 [實施方式] 本發明之第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶之製造方法,係具 有:對經過加熱之基板上,以V / I I I比爲1 ο ο 0以下(含V / I I I 比爲0時)提供弟I I I族原料’形成第I I I族氮化物半導體 之桌1步驟;以及再使用第III族原料及氮原料,在該基 板上實施第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶之汽相成長之第2步 驟。利用具有上述第1、第2步驟之第I I I族氮化物半導 體結晶之製造方法,可在基板上形成結晶性良好之第ill 族氮化物半導體結晶。又,本發明中之第111族氮化物半 導體係以InGaAIN表不之。 -12- 1221638 在V/I II比爲1 000以下之低V/Ι II比的條件下製作之第 I I I族氮化物半導體結晶,結晶中之第V族元素及第III 族元素之化學計量比(化學計量化)不會爲1 ·· 1,第I π族 元素應會過剩而形成金屬過剩。此種第111族氮化物半導 體結晶層中,過剩之第111族元素會以金屬結晶或液滴之 形態出現。因此,在其上實施第Π I族氮化物半導體結晶 之成長時,成長初期之遷移會以良好效率進行,而可實現 橫向之2次元成長。然而,其詳細機構卻不明。 爲使獲得良好之第11 I族氮化物半導體的成長,最好爲 以較小V / I I I比製作之A1N膜,其在日本特開平9 - 64477 亦曾論述。然而,該文獻中,係希望製作之第I I I族氮化 物半導體結晶爲結晶性良好之單結晶。經過重複實驗及解 析,發現將柱狀結晶或島狀結晶之集合體當做緩衝層,其 機能較單結晶膜爲佳。因爲金屬晶及液滴會進入存在於由 柱狀結晶或島狀結晶所構成之層中的晶粒間界,而更易產 生金屬過剩之結晶。然而,詳細情形卻不明。 因爲此方法之溫度昇降小於傳統上使用低溫緩衝層之方 法,處理過程會較短,電力消耗量亦較少。利用此方式, 可縮短製造處理過程並實現低成本化。又,因溫度變化較 小,故可將基板之反翹抑制於最小,而使元件特性具有良 好之均一性。又,和到目前爲止被公開之使用高溫下成長 之A 1 N層的成長方法相比,可製作具有良好元件特性之結 晶。 本發明之基板可使用玻璃、SiC、Si、GaAs、及藍寶石等 -13 - 1221638 。本發明中之前述基板以藍寶石(ai2o3)爲最佳。基板若使 用藍寶石,則具有以低價獲得局品質基板之優點。 藍寶石基板之面方位方面,可使用m面、3面、或C面 等,然而,其中以c面((0001)面)爲佳,又,基板表面 之垂直軸應從<000 1 >方向朝特定方向傾斜。又,本發明使 用之基板,若在第1步驟前實施如有機洗淨及蝕刻之前處 理,則可使基板表面之狀態保持一定之狀態而更佳。 本發明中,在第1步驟提供之第I I I族原料可以使用三 甲基鋁、三乙基鋁、第三丁基鋁、三甲基鎵、三乙基鎵、 第三丁基鎵、三甲基銦、三乙基銦、第三丁基銦、及茂基 銦等。又,如三甲基鋁、三乙基鋁、第三丁基鋁等之第ΙΠ 族原料若含有A 1,則因含鋁之氮化物的分解溫度較高,在 高溫下不易發生分解及昇華,而具有結晶容易在基板上成 長之效果,故特別良好。 又,本發明之第1步驟中,會和第I I I族原料同時提供 氣、院基胺類、聯胺類等之第V族原料,形成第I I I族氮 化物半導體。本發明中,在第1步驟中提供第111族原料 時之V/III比爲1000以下。又,500以下更佳,100以下 最好。以此方式設定V / I I I比,具有更易產生金屬過剩之 化合物半導體結晶的效果。 本發明中,V /111比亦可爲〇,亦即,第V族原料之供給 量爲0。然而,此時即使刻意使提供之第V族原料爲〇,附 著於反應爐之壁面、天花板、及感受器等之附著物的分解 而產生之氮’亦會形成第I I I族氮化物半導體。此時,必 -14- 1221638 須適度地控制附著於反應爐之壁面、天花板、及感受器等 之附著物的組成及量。具體而言,就是調整結束成長後之 反應爐的烘焙時間及溫度、或停止其本身。又,使用低溫 緩衝法之成長上之一般技術〜被稱爲熱洗淨之步驟,調整 時間及溫度、停止其本身。 以實例來進行說明的話,在前一次之成長後不實施烘焙 ,而在 6 0 0 °C實施1 0分鐘之熱洗淨後,在第1步驟以 1 000°C使只含有金屬之化合物流過基板,然後,在第2步 驟實施結晶成長,可製作良好之第I I I族氮化物半導體結 晶。 又,第1步驟之V / I I I比爲〇而仍可獲得良好第111族 氮化物半導體結晶之條件之一,就是使用N2做爲載體氣體 ,將在約1 00 0 °C之溫度下由N2之少許分解所產生的氮(N) 原子當做氮源使用。 本發明之第1步驟中,環境氣體可以使用氫、稀有氣體 、及氮等之單獨氣體、或混合氣體。如上面所述,使用氮 當做環境氣體時,有時氮氣亦會具有原料氣體之機能。 又,執行第1步驟時之環境壓力可以爲1 000〜lx 105Pa 。以lx 105Pa以下爲佳,最好爲lx l〇4Pa以下。第1步驟 之壓力較低的話,製作之金屬過剩的第Π I族氮化物半導 體層之表面會較爲平坦,而具有在其上成長之第2第III 族氮化物半.導體層的表面會較爲平坦化之效果。 又,本發明中,對於實施第1步驟時之基板溫度、及實 施第2步驟時之基板溫度並無特別規定,然而,實施第1 - 15 - 1221638 步驟時之基板溫度應等於或高於實施第2步驟時之基板溫 度。若以等於或高於實施第2步驟時之基板溫度來實施第 1步驟,則可有效地分解第Π I族原料氣體之有機金屬化 合物分子,而具有形成之結晶內不會混入未分解之烷基等 所導致之雜質的優點。 本發明之第1步驟所形成之第Π I族氮化物半導體係島 狀結晶塊。亦即,係由寬度爲1 nm至5 00nm、高度爲5nm 至1 00nm程度之島狀粒子塊密集而成之島狀結晶塊的集合 。使第I I I族氮化物成爲島狀結晶,因結晶層會產生很多 晶粒間界,而容易使金屬晶及液滴殘留於該部位,應可進 一步獲得金屬過剩層之機能的效果。又,構造上,島狀結 晶之分布不必太密,從結晶塊及結晶塊之間可看到基板表 面亦可。此時,因表面上混合存在著結晶成長速度不同之 區域,可利用選擇成長之效果來降低貫通移位之密度,故 可製作良好之結晶。 或者,使本發明第1步驟形成之第I I I族氮化物半導體 成爲柱狀結晶。亦即,由寬度爲O.lnm至100nm、高度爲l〇nm 至5 00nm程度之柱狀粒子集合而成之柱狀結晶。使第Hi 族氮化物成爲柱狀結晶,因結晶層會產生很多晶粒間界, 而容易使金屬結晶及液滴殘留於該部位,應可進一步獲得 金屬過剩層之機能的效果。 又’本發明之第2步驟中,係使用第I I I族原料及氮原 料,在第1步驟中形成第I I I族氮化物之基板上,實施第 I I I族氮化物半導體結.晶之汽相成長。若成長之第I I I族 -16- 1221638 氮化物半導體結晶爲GaN,爲了在第I I I族氮化物半導體 內可以容易進行2次元成長,GaN最好爲可以很容易即形 成平坦之結晶膜。一旦利用GaN製作具良好平坦性之結晶 膜,則在其上製作使用各種不同組成之第Π I族氮化物半 導體結晶層之半導體裝置就十分容易。 本發明之第1步驟、第2步驟、或雙方之步驟的汽相成 長法,可以使用有機金屬化學汽相成長法(MOCVD法)或氣 相磊晶法(VPE法)。其中,MOCVD法因可調節第I I I族原料 之分解速度及成長速度適中等理由而較佳。又,利用MOCVD 法時,可以不必從反應爐內取出平坦化基板之情形下,製 作具有良好結晶特性之各種元件構造。 第2步驟中以MOCVD法實施第I I I族氮化物半導體結晶 之成長時,基板溫度應爲 9 50°C至1 200 °C,環境壓力應爲 1 OOOPa 至 1 X 1 〇5Pa。 又,第2步驟中所使用之氮原料,因氨(NH3)爲氣體而較 容易處理,且因市場十分流通且價格便宜而較爲適當。第 I I I族原料可使用三甲基鋁、三乙基鋁、第三丁基鋁、三 甲基鎵、三乙基鎵、第三丁基鎵、三甲基銦、三乙基銦、 第三丁基銦、及茂基銦等。又,第2步驟中之第III族氮 化物半導體結晶成長時之V / I I I比應爲500〜20000。 本發明中,係利用具有上述第1、第2步驟之第I I I族 氮化物半導體結晶之製造方法,可以短時間、省電力之處 理過程在基板上形成高均一性、及良好結晶性之第I I I族 氮化物半導體結晶。因此,在上述第Π丨族氮化物半導體 -17- 1221638 結晶之上’進一步形成第111族氮化物半導體結晶層,即 可製作具有用以製作發光二極體、雷射二極體、或電子裝 置等所使用之疊層構造的第丨Z I族氮化物半導體磊晶晶圓 〇 [實施方式] 以下’係依據本發明實施例進行具體說明。 (實施例1 ) 說明本發明之氮化鎵系化合物半導體結晶的製造方法。 本實施例1中’係對藍寶石基板上實施使含有莫耳比爲1 : 2 之二甲基銘(TMA1)蒸氣及三甲基鎵(TMGa)蒸氣之混合氣體 、以及曰有氣(NH3)之氣體流過的第1步驟,並實施使TMGa 及氨流過並使氮化鎵成長而在藍寶石基板上製作由氮化鎵 結晶所構成之G a N層的第2步驟。第1步驟之條件的v /丨j j 比爲約8 5。 利用MOCVD法依下述步驟製作上述含GaN層之材料。 首先,在導入藍寶石基板前,在含氨及氫之氣體中加熱 ,針對同一裝置之前一次成長時附著於反應爐內部之附著 物實施氮化’使其更不容易分解。等反應爐降至室溫後, 將藍寶石基板導入設置於感應加熱式加熱器之RF線圈內的 石英製反應爐中。將藍寶石基板置於經過氮氣置換之圓形 箱中,並載置於加熱用之碳製感受器上。導入材料後,流 通氮氣,實施反應爐內之淸洗。 使氮氣流通約1 0分鐘後,啓動感應加熱式加熱器,以大 約1 0分鐘之時間將基板溫度加溫至1 1 7 0 °C。使基扳溫度保 -

In particular, the present invention relates to a method for producing a group III nitride semiconductor crystal suitable for epitaxial growth of a group III nitride semiconductor crystal having good crystallinity on a sapphire substrate. [Prior art] Since a group III nitride semiconductor has a band gap equivalent to a direct energy transfer type in the visible to ultraviolet region, it can perform high-efficiency light emission, and is therefore used in the production of LEDs and LDs. In addition, at the heterojunction interface of aluminum gallium nitride (AlGaN) and gallium nitride (G aN), a two-dimensional electron layer caused by the piezoelectric effect peculiar to the Group III nitride semiconductor will be found, which will make electronic devices traditional. The potential of the III-V compound semiconductor which cannot be obtained. However, the growth temperature of a group III nitride semiconductor at a single crystal will have a nitrogen dissociation pressure of 2000 atmospheres, so the growth of a single crystal is very difficult. I want to combine a single crystal substrate of a group III nitride semiconductor with other III-V compound semiconductors are similarly used as substrates for epitaxial growth, and in the current situation, there are substantial difficulties. Therefore, a substrate made of heterogeneous materials such as sapphire (A 1 2 0 3) and silicon carbide (S i C) single crystal is used as the substrate for epitaxial growth. Between these heterogeneous substrates and the Group I I I nitride semiconductor crystals on which epitaxial growth is performed, considerable lattice mismatches may exist. For example, 16% between sapphire (A 1 2 0 3) and gallium nitride (GaN), and 6% lattice mismatch between SiC and gallium nitride. In general, when there is such a large lattice mismatch, it is difficult to perform direct epitaxial growth of crystals on a substrate, and even if it can grow, crystals with good crystallinity cannot be obtained. Therefore, when the organometallic chemical vapor phase growth (MOCVD) method is used to perform epitaxial growth of a group III nitride semiconductor crystal on a sapphire single crystal substrate and a Si c single crystal substrate, such as Japanese Patent No. 3 026 08 7 and According to Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 4-297023, the following method is generally used. First, a layer called a low-temperature buffer layer made of nitride nitride (A1N) or AlGaN is laminated on a substrate, and then a high temperature is applied thereon. The epitaxial growth of the Group III nitride semiconductor crystal is performed. In addition to the above-mentioned method for growing the low-temperature buffer layer, there are such methods as P. Kung, eta 1., Applied Physics Letters, M_ (1 9 9 5), 29 5 8. It is shown that an A1N layer grown in a high-temperature temperature range of about 900 ° C to 1 200 ° C is formed on a substrate, and then a method of growing gallium nitride is performed thereon. [Summary of the Invention] When sapphire is used as a substrate, the above-mentioned low-temperature buffer layer can be formed roughly as follows. First, the sapphire substrate is heated to a high temperature of 1 000 ° C to 1 200 ° C in a growth device of the MOCVD method, and the surface oxide film is removed. After that, the temperature of the growing device is lowered, and at a temperature of about 400 to 6 0 ° C, the organic metal is supplied to the substrate at a temperature of -7-1221638 at a V / III ratio of 3 Ο Ο 0 to 1 〇 0 Raw material and nitrogen source, laminated low temperature buffer layer. At this time, the V / III ratio refers to the number of moles of the molecules containing Group III elements flowing through the reaction furnace and the content of Group V elements when the growth of Group III-V compound semiconductor crystals is performed by the MOCVD method. The mole ratio of the numerator. For example, when the growth of gallium nitride is performed using TMGa and ammonia, the ratio of the molar number of TMG a flowing in the reactor to the molar number of ammonia. Thereafter, the supply of the organometallic raw materials was stopped, the temperature of the growth device was raised again, and a low-temperature buffer layer was subjected to a heat treatment called crystallization, and then the intended epitaxial growth of the Group I I I nitride semiconductor crystal was performed. At a stacking temperature of low temperature buffer layer of 400 ° C ~ 600 ° C, the thermal decomposition of organometallic materials and nitrogen sources used as raw materials, especially ammonia used as a nitrogen source, is insufficient. Therefore, if lamination is performed at such a low temperature, many defects are contained in the low-temperature buffer layer. In addition, since the raw materials are reacted at a low temperature, a polymerization reaction occurs between the organometallic alkyl group of the raw materials and the undecomposed nitrogen source, so the crystals of the low-temperature buffer layer also contain many impurities such as these reactants. In order to eliminate these defects and impurities, a low-temperature buffer layer is subjected to a heat treatment step called crystallization. The crystallization step of the buffer layer is to perform a heat treatment on the low-temperature buffer layer containing many impurities and defects at a temperature close to the epitaxial growth temperature of the Group II I nitride semiconductor crystal to remove these impurities and defects. As shown above, the growth method used for the low-temperature buffer layer must reduce the substrate temperature to about 120 ° C from the hot scrubbing temperature to around 50000 ° C, which is the temperature at which the buffer layer grows. In a short period of time, the temperature was raised from around 500 t-8-1221638 to a temperature range around 1000 ° c where annealing was performed. At this time, in general, it takes longer to change the temperature for cooling purposes, and it takes more energy to increase the temperature quickly. In addition, since the substrate must be subjected to various temperature changes as shown above, the substrate is warped. In addition, the substrate may be cracked or cracked due to reverse warping. In addition, the reverse warping of the substrate will also affect the crystal layer grown on it, especially when the LED structure is manufactured, the luminous wavelength and light intensity will not be uniform in the substrate surface. In addition, compared to the above-mentioned growth method using a low-temperature buffer layer, it has also been proposed to form A1N grown on a substrate in a high-temperature temperature range of about 900 ° C to 1200 ° C, and then implement gallium nitride thereon. Methods of growth (for example, P. Kung, et al., Applied Physics Letters, 6 6 (19 9 5), 2 9 5 8 ·, etc.). In the foregoing example, it is described that a very good crystal whose X-ray rocking curve of the (00 〇 2) plane is 30 a r c s e c can be produced by this method. However, according to the results of our experiments on this method, it was found that the gallium nitride crystal film produced by this method is a crystal with extremely high columnarity, and the crystal contains many grain boundaries. The density of this type of through-displacement of crystals from the substrate toward the surface is quite high. Therefore, good characteristics are not obtained even in the production of element structures such as light-emitting elements and electronic devices. A method of growing an A1N layer similarly made at a high temperature is also described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 9-64477. In this document, it is desired that the Group I I I nitride semiconductor crystal produced is a single crystal with good crystallinity. However, after repeated experiments, we found that the growth method described in this article using a good single crystal A 1 N film is the same as the method described in the above literature. When making the element structure -9-1221638, crystals with good characteristics cannot be grown. Because a single crystal layer with good crystallinity is used as a buffer layer, and the growth of a group I I I nitride semiconductor is performed thereon, the atoms attached at the initial stage of growth cannot smoothly migrate, and it is difficult to obtain a two-dimensional growth. As shown above, because a Group III nitride semiconductor crystal with sufficient crystallinity cannot be obtained when manufacturing a device, a method for growing a Group III nitride semiconductor crystal using an A 丨 N buffer layer grown at a high temperature is currently used. It is not universal. The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a Group III nitride semiconductor crystal which can form a high-quality Group III nitride semiconductor crystal with a small number of temperature changes, and can be used instead of a method using a low-temperature buffer layer that must set many temperature regions, and A method using a high-temperature A 丨 N layer for the produced crystal with quality problems. In particular, a method for manufacturing a group III nitride semiconductor crystal capable of performing epitaxial growth of a group IIII nitride semiconductor crystal with high quality on a sapphire substrate is provided. In addition, the present invention can provide a high-quality Group III nitride semiconductor crystal manufactured by the aforementioned method for manufacturing a Group III nitride semiconductor crystal, and a Group 111 nitride semiconductor using the Group III nitride semiconductor crystal. Epicrystalline wafer.

The method for manufacturing a semiconductor junction product is characterized in that the first group III nitride semiconductor is an aggregate of columnar crystals or island crystals. (1 1) The side surface of the columnar crystal is a manufacturing method of the group I I I nitride semiconductor crystal as described in (1 0) above, which is attached to the substrate approximately perpendicular to the substrate surface. The present invention is (1 2) a group I I I nitride semiconductor crystal produced by the methods (1) to (1 1) described above. In addition, the present invention (1 3) is a Group III nitride semiconductor Jiajing wafer in which the group III nitride semiconductor crystal layer is further formed on the Group I I I nitride semiconductor crystal as described in (12) above. [Embodiment] The method for producing a group III nitride semiconductor crystal of the present invention includes: providing a heated substrate with a V / III ratio of 1 ο ο or less (including when the V / III ratio is 0) The first step of forming a group III nitride semiconductor is the first step of forming a group III nitride semiconductor; and the second step of vapor phase growth of the group III nitride semiconductor crystal is performed on the substrate by using the group III raw material and the nitrogen raw material. By using the manufacturing method of the Group I I I nitride semiconductor crystal having the above-mentioned first and second steps, a Group Ill nitride semiconductor crystal with good crystallinity can be formed on the substrate. In addition, the group 111 nitride semiconductor system in the present invention is represented by InGaAIN. -12- 1221638 Group III nitride semiconductor crystals produced under the condition that the V / I II ratio is lower than 1 000, and the V / I II ratio, the stoichiometric ratio of the Group V element and the Group III element in the crystal (Stoichiometry) It will not be 1 ·· 1, and the Group π element should be excessive to form a metal excess. In such a group 111 nitride semiconductor crystal layer, an excessive group 111 element appears in the form of metal crystals or droplets. Therefore, when the growth of a Group I nitride semiconductor crystal is performed thereon, migration at the initial stage of growth is performed with good efficiency, and horizontal two-dimensional growth can be realized. However, its detailed structure is unknown. In order to obtain good growth of the Group I nitride semiconductor, it is best to use an A1N film made with a smaller V / I I I ratio, which is also discussed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 9-64477. However, in this document, the Group I I I nitride semiconductor crystal is desired to be a single crystal with good crystallinity. After repeated experiments and analysis, it was found that the aggregate of columnar crystals or island crystals was used as a buffer layer, and its function was better than that of a single crystal film. Because metal crystals and droplets enter the grain boundaries existing in a layer composed of columnar crystals or island crystals, it is easier to produce excessive metal crystals. However, details are unknown. Because the temperature rise and fall of this method is smaller than the traditional method using a low temperature buffer layer, the processing process will be shorter and the power consumption will be less. This method can shorten the manufacturing process and reduce costs. In addition, since the temperature change is small, the warpage of the substrate can be suppressed to a minimum, and the uniformity of the device characteristics can be made good. Furthermore, compared with the growth method of the A 1 N layer which has been disclosed so far using high temperature growth, a crystal having good device characteristics can be produced. As the substrate of the present invention, glass, SiC, Si, GaAs, and sapphire can be used. The aforementioned substrate in the present invention is preferably sapphire (ai2o3). The use of sapphire as the substrate has the advantage of obtaining a local-quality substrate at a low price. For the orientation of the sapphire substrate, m-plane, 3-plane, or C-plane can be used. However, among them, the c-plane ((0001) plane) is preferred, and the vertical axis of the substrate surface should be from < 000 1 > The direction is inclined in a specific direction. In addition, if the substrate used in the present invention is processed before the first step such as organic cleaning and etching, the state of the surface of the substrate can be maintained in a certain state, which is more preferable. In the present invention, as the Group III raw material provided in the first step, trimethylaluminum, triethylaluminum, third butylaluminum, trimethylgallium, triethylgallium, third butylgallium, trimethyl Indium, triethylindium, third butylindium, and metallocene indium. In addition, if the group III raw materials such as trimethylaluminum, triethylaluminum, and third butylaluminum contain A1, the decomposition temperature of aluminum-containing nitrides is high, so decomposition and sublimation are unlikely to occur at high temperatures. , And has the effect that the crystal is easy to grow on the substrate, so it is particularly good. In the first step of the present invention, a Group V raw material such as gas, amines, and hydrazines is supplied together with the Group I I I raw materials to form a Group I I I nitride semiconductor. In the present invention, the V / III ratio when the Group 111 raw material is supplied in the first step is 1,000 or less. It is more preferably 500 or less, and most preferably 100 or less. Setting the V / I I I ratio in this way has the effect of more easily crystallizing compound semiconductors with excessive metal. In the present invention, the V / 111 ratio may also be 0, that is, the supply amount of the Group V raw material is 0. However, at this time, even if the supplied Group V raw material is intentionally set to zero, nitrogen 'generated from the decomposition of adherents on the wall surface, ceiling, and susceptor of the reaction furnace will form a Group I I I nitride semiconductor. At this time, it is necessary to properly control the composition and amount of attachments attached to the wall surface, ceiling, and susceptor of the reaction furnace. Specifically, it is to adjust the baking time and temperature of the reactor after the growth is completed, or to stop itself. In addition, the general technique of growth using a low-temperature buffer method is a process called hot washing, which adjusts time and temperature and stops itself. To illustrate with an example, the baking is not performed after the previous growth, but the thermal washing at 10 ° C for 10 minutes is performed, and the compound containing only metal is flowed at 1 ° C at the first step. After passing through the substrate, crystal growth is performed in the second step, and a good Group III nitride semiconductor crystal can be produced. In addition, one of the conditions for obtaining a good Group 111 nitride semiconductor crystal with a V / III ratio of 0 in the first step is to use N2 as a carrier gas, which will be converted from N2 at a temperature of about 1000 ° C. Nitrogen (N) atoms produced by a small amount of decomposition are used as a nitrogen source. In the first step of the present invention, as the ambient gas, a single gas such as hydrogen, a rare gas, and nitrogen, or a mixed gas can be used. As mentioned above, when nitrogen is used as the ambient gas, nitrogen sometimes has the function of a source gas. In addition, the environmental pressure when performing the first step may be 1 000 to 1 x 105 Pa. It is preferably lx 105Pa or less, and most preferably lx 104Pa or less. If the pressure in the first step is low, the surface of the group III nitride semiconductor layer with excess metal will be flat, and there will be a group III nitride semi-conductor grown on it. The surface of the conductor layer will More flattening effect. In the present invention, there is no particular requirement on the substrate temperature during the first step and the substrate temperature during the second step. However, the substrate temperature during the steps 1-15-1221638 should be equal to or higher than The substrate temperature at the second step. If the first step is performed at a temperature equal to or higher than the substrate temperature when the second step is performed, the organic metal compound molecules of the group Π I source gas can be effectively decomposed, and the undecomposed alkane will not be mixed into the formed crystal. Advantages of impurities caused by radicals. The group III nitride semiconductor semiconductor island-shaped crystal block formed in the first step of the present invention. That is, it is a collection of island-shaped crystal blocks formed by dense clusters of island-shaped particle blocks having a width of 1 nm to 500 nm and a height of about 5 nm to 100 nm. In order to make the group I I I nitride into island-like crystals, many crystal grain boundaries will be generated in the crystal layer, and metal crystals and liquid droplets will easily remain in this part. The effect of the function of the metal excess layer should be further obtained. In addition, structurally, the distribution of island crystals need not be too dense, and the surface of the substrate may be seen from the crystal block and the crystal block. At this time, since regions having different crystal growth rates are mixed on the surface, the effect of selective growth can be used to reduce the density of through displacement, so good crystals can be produced. Alternatively, the group I I I nitride semiconductor formed in the first step of the present invention is made into a columnar crystal. That is, a columnar crystal is formed by assembling columnar particles having a width of 0.1 nm to 100 nm and a height of approximately 10 nm to 500 nm. When the group Hi nitride is made into columnar crystals, many crystal grain boundaries are generated in the crystal layer, and metal crystals and liquid droplets are liable to remain in this part. The effect of the function of the metal excess layer should be further obtained. In the second step of the present invention, a group I I I nitride and a nitrogen raw material are used. In the first step, a group I I I nitride is formed on a substrate, and a group I I nitride semiconductor semiconductor crystal is grown. If the grown Group I I I -16-1221638 nitride semiconductor is crystallized into GaN, in order to facilitate two-dimensional growth in the Group I I I nitride semiconductor, it is preferable that GaN is formed so as to form a flat crystalline film easily. Once a crystalline film having good flatness is formed using GaN, it is very easy to fabricate a semiconductor device using a group III nitride semiconductor crystal layer with various compositions thereon. In the vapor phase growth method of the first step, the second step, or both steps of the present invention, an organometallic chemical vapor phase growth method (MOCVD method) or a gas phase epitaxy method (VPE method) can be used. Among them, the MOCVD method is preferable because it can adjust the decomposition speed and growth speed of Group I I I raw materials to be moderate. In addition, when the MOCVD method is used, various element structures having good crystal characteristics can be produced without removing the planarized substrate from the reaction furnace. In the second step, when the growth of a group I I nitride semiconductor crystal is performed by the MOCVD method, the substrate temperature should be 9 50 ° C to 1 200 ° C, and the ambient pressure should be 1 OOOPa to 1 X 105 Pa. In addition, the nitrogen raw material used in the second step is easier to handle because ammonia (NH3) is a gas, and it is suitable because the market is very popular and inexpensive. For Group III raw materials, trimethylaluminum, triethylaluminum, third butylaluminum, trimethylgallium, triethylgallium, third butylgallium, trimethylindium, triethylindium, third Butyl indium, and indenocene. The V / I I I ratio during the growth of the Group III nitride semiconductor crystal in the second step should be 500 to 20,000. In the present invention, a method for manufacturing a Group III nitride semiconductor crystal having the above-mentioned first and second steps is used, which can form a high-uniformity and good crystallinity III on a substrate in a short time and power-saving processing process. Group nitride semiconductor crystals. Therefore, by further forming a group 111 nitride semiconductor crystal layer on top of the above-mentioned group III nitride semiconductor-17-1212638 crystal, it is possible to fabricate a layer having a light emitting diode, a laser diode, or an electron. A group ZI nitride semiconductor epitaxial wafer with a stacked structure used in a device or the like. [Embodiment] The following description will be specifically described in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. (Example 1) A method for manufacturing a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor crystal according to the present invention will be described. In the first embodiment, a mixed gas containing dimethyl methacrylate (TMA1) vapor and trimethylgallium (TMGa) vapor with a molar ratio of 1: 2 is implemented on a sapphire substrate, and NH3 is used. In the first step of flowing gas, a second step of forming a GaN layer made of gallium nitride crystal on a sapphire substrate is performed by flowing TMGa and ammonia and growing gallium nitride. The v / | j j ratio of the condition of the first step is about 8 5. The MOCVD method is used to fabricate the GaN-containing layer. First, before the sapphire substrate is introduced, it is heated in a gas containing ammonia and hydrogen. Nitriding is performed on the deposits that were attached to the inside of the reactor during the previous growth of the same device to make it more difficult to decompose. After the reaction furnace was cooled to room temperature, the sapphire substrate was introduced into a quartz reaction furnace installed in an RF coil of an induction heating heater. The sapphire substrate was placed in a circular box replaced with nitrogen and placed on a carbon susceptor for heating. After the material was introduced, nitrogen was flowed through, and rinsing was performed in the reaction furnace. After allowing nitrogen to flow for about 10 minutes, the induction heating heater was started, and the substrate temperature was heated to 1 170 ° C for about 10 minutes. Keep the substrate temperature-1 8-1221638 at 1 170 ° C, and place the substrate for 9 minutes with hydrogen and nitrogen flowing, and perform thermal cleaning of the substrate surface. During the thermal cleaning, a hydrogen carrier gas was circulated in the container (bubble) containing the raw material trimethylgallium (TMG a) and the container (containing the raw material trimethylaluminum (TMA 1)) connected to the reaction furnace (from Bubbles in the piping). The temperature of each bubbler was adjusted to a constant value using a constant temperature bath for temperature adjustment. By using the TMGa and TMA1 vapor generated by the foaming, until the start of the growth step ', the carrier gas is kept flowing in the pipe of the detoxification device at the same time, and is discharged out of the system through the detoxification device. After the thermal washing is completed, the valve of the nitrogen carrier gas is switched, and only hydrogen left in the gas supplied in the reaction furnace. After switching the carrier gas, the temperature of the substrate was reduced to 1150 ° C. After confirming that the temperature is stable at 150 ° C, switch the valve of the ammonia piping to start circulating ammonia into the furnace. Next, the valves of the piping of TMGa and TMA1 are switched at the same time, and the gas containing TMGa and TMA1 vapor is supplied to the reaction furnace, and the first step of attaching the group I I I nitride semiconductor to the sapphire substrate is started. The mixing ratio of the supplied TMGa and TMA1 was adjusted to a 2: 1 ratio using a flow regulator installed in a bubble pipe, and the amount of ammonia was adjusted to a V / I I I ratio of 8 5. After carrying out the treatment for 6 minutes, the valves of the pipes of TMGa and TMA1 were switched at the same time, and the supply of gas containing the vapors of TMGa and TMA1 to the reaction furnace was stopped. Subsequently, the ammonia supply was also stopped and kept for 3 minutes. After annealing for 3 minutes, the valve of the ammonia gas piping was switched, and ammonia gas was supplied to the furnace again. -19-1221638 Allow ammonia to circulate for 4 minutes. During this period, adjust the flow rate of the flow regulator of the TMG a pipe. After 4 minutes, the valve of TMGa was switched to start supplying TMG a to the furnace and start the growth of GaN. After the growth of the GaN layer described above for about one hour, the valve of the TMGa piping was switched, the supply of raw materials to the reactor was stopped, and the growth was stopped. After the growth of the GaN layer is finished, the power to the induction heating heater is stopped, and the substrate temperature is reduced to room temperature in 20 minutes. During the cooling, the environment in the reactor is the same as that in the growth, and it is composed of ammonia, nitrogen, and hydrogen. However, after confirming that the temperature of the substrate has dropped to 300 ° C, stop supplying ammonia and hydrogen. After that, the temperature of the substrate was lowered to room temperature with nitrogen flowing, and the material was taken out and placed in the atmosphere. By the above steps, a Group I I I nitride semiconductor layer having a columnar structure with excess metal is formed on a sapphire substrate, and a 2 // m film thickness GaN layer is formed thereon in an undoped manner to make a material. The removed substrate will show a slightly metallic black, representing the normal composition of excess metal in the Group ill nitride semiconductor layer system formed on the interface with the substrate. The growth surface is a mirror surface. Secondly, the X-ray rocking curve (X R C) measurement is performed on the undoped GaN layer grown by the above method. In the measurement, a c u / 3-line X-ray generation source is used as the light source, and the measurement is performed on the symmetry plane (00 〇 2) plane and the asymmetric plane (100-12) plane. In general, in the case of a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor, the half-bandwidth of the XRC spectrum of the (00 〇2) plane is an index of the flatness (embedding) of the crystal, and the half-bandwidth of the (1 〇_ 丨 2) plane ZXRC light g It is an indicator of displacement density (twisting). Measurement result 'The undoped GaN layer produced by the method of the present invention has a half bandwidth of the (0 0 0 2) -20-1212638 plane of 230 seconds and a half bandwidth of the (10-12) plane of 350 seconds. The uppermost surface of the GaN layer was observed with a general atomic force microscope (AFM). As a result, no growth pits were found on the surface, and a surface with a good surface geometry was observed. A transmission electron microscope (TEM) was used to observe the cross section of this material's interface between the sapphire substrate and the gallium nitride layer, and an A 1 N film having a plurality of grain boundaries approximately perpendicular to the substrate surface was observed. The film thickness is about 60 nm. The grain boundaries and the distance between the grain boundaries are 5 nm to 50 nm. This layer should be a layer composed of aggregates of vertically long columnar crystals. Elemental analysis was performed. This film contains Ga at about 20%. (Example 2) The steps of Example 2 are roughly the same as those of Example 1. Only the growth of the Group III nitride semiconductor in the first step is changed to 2 minutes. Experiments were performed under these different conditions. The surface of the wafer taken out at this time is also a mirror surface. The color is colorless and transparent. A transmission electron microscope (TEM) was used to observe the cross section of the material, the interface between the sapphire substrate and the gallium nitride layer, and confirm the existence of island-shaped A 1 N crystal blocks. Elementally, this crystal block contains about 15% Ga. The same process was performed to grow to half, the process was stopped before the growth of the gallium nitride layer and taken out from the growth furnace to make materials, and the surface geometry of this surface was observed by atomic force microscope (AFM). When viewed from above, there are slightly curved hexagonal aluminum nitride crystal blocks with trapezoidal cross-sections. (Example 3)-2 1-1221638 In this example 3, the baking after the previous experiment and before the growth is not performed, that is, the sapphire substrate is introduced into the reaction furnace. The first step is to use the trimethyl aluminum (TMA1) vapor containing Gas flow, the second step is to circulate TMGa and ammonia and perform gallium nitride growth, and a G aN layer composed of gallium nitride crystals is fabricated on a sapphire substrate. In this embodiment, although the v / I I I ratio is attempted to be 0, a small amount of N atoms are supplied to the substrate due to the decomposition of the attachments attached to the wall surface of the reaction furnace and the ceiling. The MOCVD method is used to fabricate the GaN-containing layer according to the following steps. First, a sapphire substrate was introduced into a quartz furnace in an RF coil of an induction heating heater. The sapphire substrate was placed in a spherical box replaced with nitrogen and placed on a carbon sensor for heating. After the material is introduced, nitrogen is circulated to purify the inside of the reaction furnace. After 10 minutes of nitrogen flow, the induction heating heater was started to raise the substrate temperature to 600 ° C in 10 minutes. The substrate temperature was maintained at 600 t, and hydrogen gas was allowed to flow and left for 9 minutes. During this period, the hydrogen carrier gas circulated through the pipes of the container (bubble) containing the raw material trimethylgallium (TMGa) and the container (bubble) containing the raw material trimethylaluminum (TMAI) connected to the reaction furnace. Within, bubbles started to form. The temperature of each bubbler was adjusted to a constant value using a constant temperature bath for temperature adjustment. By using the TMGa and TMA1 vapors generated by the foaming, until the start of the growth step, the carrier gas and the carrier gas are kept circulating in the piping of the detoxification device and discharged to the system through the detoxification device. Thereafter, the valve of the nitrogen carrier gas was closed, and the supply of hydrogen gas to the reaction furnace was started. -22- 1221638 After changing the carrier gas, raise the substrate temperature to 1 150 ° C. After confirming that the temperature is 1150 ° C, switch the valve of TMA 1 piping to supply gas containing TMA1 vapor to the reactor. At this time, it should be possible to supply TMA 1 and a small amount of N to the substrate at the same time by the decomposition of the attachments attached to the wall surface of the reaction furnace and the ceiling. After carrying out the treatment for 9 minutes, the valve of the TMA 1 piping was switched at the same time, and the supply of gas containing TMA 1 vapor to the reaction furnace was stopped, and this state was maintained for 3 minutes. After annealing for 3 minutes, the valve of the ammonia gas piping was switched to start supplying ammonia gas to the furnace. In this state, ammonia flow was performed for 4 minutes. During this period, adjust the flow rate of the flow regulator of the TMGa piping. After 4 minutes, the valve of TMG a was switched and TMGa was supplied to the furnace, so that GaN began to grow. After the growth of the GaN layer is performed for about one hour, the valve of the TMGa piping is switched, the supply of raw materials to the reactor is stopped, and the growth is stopped. After the growth of the G a N layer is completed, the energization of the induction heating heater is stopped, and the substrate temperature is reduced to room temperature in 20 minutes. When the temperature is lowered, the environment in the reactor is the same as that in the growing environment, and it is composed of ammonia, nitrogen, and hydrogen. After confirming that the substrate temperature has dropped to 300 ° C, stop supplying ammonia and hydrogen. Thereafter, the temperature of the δ-substrate is lowered to room temperature 'under a state of nitrogen flow, and the material is taken out and placed in the atmosphere. Using the above steps, in the first step, a Group III nitride semiconductor layer having a columnar structure with excess metal is formed on a sapphire substrate, and a GaN layer with a thickness of 2 // m is formed thereon in an undoped manner.成 材料。 into materials. The removed substrate is the same as in Example 1, and it will be slightly metallic black, representing the group I I I gas semiconductor semiconductor metal formed on the boundary between the substrate and the substrate. The growing surface is a mirror surface. Secondly, XRC measurement was performed on the undoped GaN layer grown by the above method. In the measurement, a Cu 々 X-ray generation source is used as the light source, and the measurement is performed on a symmetrical plane (0002) plane and an asymmetric plane (10 _ 12) plane. As a result of the measurement, the half bandwidth of the (0002) plane of the undoped GaN layer produced by the method of the present invention is 200 seconds, and the half bandwidth of the (10-12) plane is 330 seconds. The uppermost surface of the GaN layer was observed with a general atomic force microscope (AFM). As a result, no growth pits were found on the surface, and a surface with a good surface geometry was observed. A transmission electron microscope (TEM) was used to observe the cross section of this material. On the interface between the sapphire substrate and the gallium nitride layer, an A 1 N film with a plurality of grain boundaries approximately perpendicular to the substrate surface was observed. The film thickness is about 20 ηm, and the distance between grain boundaries and grain boundaries is 10 nm to 50 nm. This layer should be a layer composed of aggregates of longitudinal columnar crystals. Elemental analysis was performed, and this film contained about 5% of G a 〇 (Example 4) The first step of this Example 4 was to implement trimethylaluminum (TMA1) with a molar ratio of 2: 1 on the sapphire substrate. A mixed gas of vapor and trimethylindium (TMI η) vapor, and a flow process of nitrogen as a carrier gas, the second step is to make TMG a and ammonia flow through and grow gallium nitride on the sapphire substrate. G a N layer composed of gallium nitride crystal. In the first step, the nitrogen of the carrier gas will be slightly decomposed ', which should provide a small amount of nitrogen atoms. The MOCVD method is used to fabricate the GaN-containing layer according to the following steps. First, before introducing the sapphire substrate, heat in -24-1221638 in a gas containing ammonia and hydrogen. Nitriding is performed on the attachments that were attached to the inside of the reactor during the previous growth of the same device, so that they will not decompose. Wait for the reaction furnace to cool down to room temperature ', and then introduce the sapphire substrate into a quartz reaction furnace provided in the RF coil of the induction heating heater. The sapphire substrate was placed in a circular box replaced with nitrogen and placed on a carbon susceptor for heating. After the material was introduced, nitrogen was flowed through, and rinsing was performed in the reaction furnace. After the nitrogen gas was allowed to flow for about 10 minutes, the induction heating heater was started, and the substrate temperature was heated to 110 ° C for about 10 minutes. When the substrate temperature was maintained at 1170 ° C, it was left to stand for 9 minutes under a hydrogen gas flow, and the substrate surface was cleaned by thermal cleaning. During the thermal cleaning, a hydrogen carrier gas was circulated in a container (bubble) containing raw material trimethylgallium (TMGa) connected to the reaction furnace, and a container (bubble generator) containing raw material trimethylaluminum (TMA1). ), And the piping of the container (bubble generator) of trimethylindium (TMIn), bubbles started to form. The temperature of each bubbler was adjusted to a constant value using a constant temperature bath for temperature adjustment. Using the TMGa, TMA1, and TMIn vapors generated by the foaming, until the start of the growth step, the carrier gas is kept flowing in the pipe of the detoxification device at the same time, and is discharged out of the system through the detoxification device. After the thermal cleaning is completed, the valve of the hydrogen carrier gas is closed and the supply valve of the nitrogen gas is opened, and the nitrogen gas is supplied to the reaction furnace. After the carrier gas is switched, the temperature of the substrate is reduced to 5o. (:. After confirming that the temperature is 1150 ° C, switch the valves of TM I η and TM A 1 at the same time, supply the gas containing TMIn and TMA1 vapor to the reactor, and start the implementation of Group III nitrides. Step 1 of attaching a semiconductor to a sapphire substrate-25-1221638. The mixing ratio of the supplied TMln and TMA1 is adjusted to 1: 2 by a flow regulator installed in a bubble pipe. After 6 minutes of treatment At the same time, switch the valves of TMln and TMA1 piping, stop supplying gas containing TMln and TMA1 vapor to the reactor, and maintain this state for 3 minutes. After annealing for 3 minutes, switch the valve of ammonia piping to start supplying ammonia to the furnace Allow ammonia to flow for 4 minutes. During this period, adjust the flow rate of the flow regulator of the TMG a piping. After 4 minutes, switch the valve of TMGa to start supplying TMG a to the furnace and start the growth of G a N. After about 1 hour After the growth of the above GaN layer, the valve of the TMGa piping is switched, the supply of raw materials to the reaction furnace is stopped, and the growth is stopped. After the growth of the GaN layer is stopped, the power to the induction heating heater is stopped. The time allowed the substrate temperature to drop to room temperature. During the cooling, the environment in the reactor is the same as that in the growth, and it is composed of ammonia, nitrogen, and hydrogen. However, after confirming that the substrate temperature has dropped to 300 ° C, stop ammonia and Supply of hydrogen. Thereafter, the temperature of the substrate was lowered to room temperature under the condition of nitrogen flow, and the material was taken out and placed in the atmosphere. Using the above steps, a Group III metal excess having a columnar structure was formed on the sapphire substrate. A nitride semiconductor layer is formed on it with a non-doped 2 // m layer of G aN, which is made of material. The substrate taken out is colorless and transparent. The growth surface is a mirror surface. Second, the growth using the above method The XRC measurement is performed on the undoped GaN layer. In the measurement, a Cu wide-line X-ray generation source is used as the light source, and the measurement is performed on the -26-1221638 scale (0 002) plane and the asymmetric plane (10-12) plane. As a result of the measurement, the half-bandwidth of the (00 02) plane is 350 seconds and the half-bandwidth of the (10-12) plane is 400 seconds. The general atomic force microscope ( (AFM) Observe the top of the GaN layer. As a result, no growth pits were found on the surface, but a surface with a good surface geometry was observed. The cross section of this material was observed with a transmission electron microscope (TEM), and at the interface between the sapphire substrate and the gallium nitride layer, it was observed that A 1 I nN film with most grain boundaries on the vertical substrate surface. The film thickness is about 10 nm, and the grain boundary and the distance between grain boundaries are 5 nm to 5 Onm. This layer should be a longitudinal type Layer composed of an aggregate of columnar crystals. (Embodiment 5) This embodiment 5 is directed to the production of a gallium nitride-based compound semiconductor light-emitting device using the method for producing a Group III nitride semiconductor crystal of the present invention. The method is explained.

After the A 1 N layer 8 having a columnar structure was formed on the sapphire substrate, ammonia was continuously circulated and the flow rate of the flow rate regulator of the TMGa pipe was adjusted. In addition, Si2H6 began to flow through the piping. During the period from when the low Si-doped GaN layer begins to grow, Si 2H6 and the carrier gas are simultaneously circulated in the pipe of the detoxification device and discharged out of the system through the detoxification device. After that, the valves of TMGa and Si 2H6 were switched, and TMGa and Si 2H6 were supplied to the furnace to start the growth of the low-doped GaN. The growth of the GaN layer was performed for about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
