    摘要: A production method for a group III nitride crystal, the production method includes: preparing a plurality of group III nitride pieces as a plurality of seed crystals on a substrate, and growing a group III nitride crystal by bringing a surface of each of the seed crystals into contact with a melt that comprises at least one group III element selected from gallium, aluminum, and indium, and an alkali metal in an atmosphere comprising nitrogen, and thereby reacting the group III element and the nitrogen in the melt, wherein the step of growing a group III nitride crystal includes: growing a plurality of first group III nitride crystals whose cross-sections each have a triangular shape or a trapezoidal shape, from the plurality of seed crystals; and growing second group III nitride crystals each in a gap among the plurality of first group III nitride crystals.

    摘要: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a group III nitride crystal in which generation of breaking or cracks is less likely to occur. To achieve the object, the method for producing a group III nitride crystal includes: seed crystal preparation including disposing a plurality of crystals of a group III nitride as a plurality of seed crystals on a substrate; and crystal growth including growing group III nitride crystals by contacting a surface of each of the seed crystals with a melt containing at least one group III element selected from gallium, aluminum, and indium and an alkali metal in an atmosphere containing nitrogen. In the seed crystal preparation, the plurality of seed crystals are disposed within a hexagonal region provided on the substrate.
