Embodiment Construction

[0012] The technical implementation process of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0013] Put the cleaned lithium aluminate substrate into the reactor and then raise the temperature to the temperature of the buffer layer to grow the buffer layer first. The temperature is 500-800° C., 650° C. is taken in this embodiment. The gas flows are: NH 3 The flow rate is 500-1500sccm, NH 3 The carrier gas flow rate is 500 sccm, the HCl flow rate is 10-20 sccm, the HCl carrier gas flow rate is 200 sccm, and the total nitrogen gas is 2000-3000 sccm.

Abstract

A method for preparing large size non-polar surface GaN self-supporting substrate includes steps of that: laying a lithium aluminate substrate into a reactor in a HVPE growth system to grow cushioning layer with temperature of 500-800 DEG C; raising temperature to a growth temperature of 1000-1100 DEG C to grow GaN; stopping growth after growing to appropriate thickness; obtaining complete self-supporting GaN substrate after cooling, wherein the lithium aluminate substrate is automatically separated. The method utilizes small crystal lattice mismatch between the lithium aluminate substrate and the GaN to obtain a non-polar surface GaN thin film with low dislocation density; the method also utilizes large heat mismatch between the lithium aluminate substrate and the GaN to separate the two without need of certain cooling rate, so that the method has advantages of obviously improved crystal quality, high rate of finished products and is favorable to scale production.

Description

1. Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for growing high-quality and large-size non-polar surface GaN substrate material on a (100) lithium aluminate (LiAlO2) substrate by using a hydride vapor phase epitaxy method. 2. Background technology [0002] Group III-V nitride materials (also known as GaN-based materials) based on GaN, InGaN, and AlGaN alloy materials are new semiconductor materials that have received much attention in the world in recent years. They are short-wavelength semiconductor optoelectronic devices and high-frequency, high-voltage , The most preferred material for the preparation of high temperature microelectronic devices. [0003] Due to the limitations of the physical properties of GaN itself, the growth of GaN bulk single crystal is very difficult and has not been put into practical use. Due to the lack of bulk single crystals, GaN thin films are mainly obtained by heteroepitaxy. The most commonly used substrate material is sapphir...
