Abstract

A method for producing a compound single crystal involving reacting a gaseous raw material and a liquid raw material, wherein the compound single crystal is grown with agitation of the liquid raw material in such a manner that a flow is formed in the liquid raw material, from the gas-liquid interface, at which the gas and the liquid contact with each other, to the inside of the liquid raw material; and an apparatus for use in the method. The above agitation allows the easy dissolution of the gaseous raw material into the liquid raw material and the achievement of a supersaturation state in a short time, resulting in the improvement in the grow rate of the compound single crystal, and further allows more uniform dissolution of the gaseous raw material through the formation of the flow from the gas-liquid interface having a high content of the gaseous raw material to the inside of the liquid raw material having a low content of the gaseous raw material, resulting in the inhibition of non-uniform generation of nuclei in the gas-liquid interface, which in turn leads to the improvement in quality of the resultant compound single crystal.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for producing a compound single crystal and a production device used in the production method. In particular, it relates to a method for producing a group III nitride single crystal such as gallium nitride and aluminum nitride, and a production device used in the production method. Background technique [0002] Group III nitride compound semiconductors such as gallium nitride (GaN) (hereinafter sometimes referred to as Group III nitride semiconductors or GaN-based semiconductors) are attracting attention as materials for semiconductor elements emitting blue and ultraviolet light. Blue laser diodes (LDs) are used in high-density optical discs, displays, and the like, and blue light emitting diodes (LEDs) are used in displays, lighting, and the like. In addition, ultraviolet LDs are expected to be applied to biotechnology and the like, and ultraviolet LEDs are expected to be used as ultraviolet light sources of ...
