    Abstract: A capsule assembly for an ultra-high pressure furnace, comprising a containment tube having an interior side surface and defining a central longitudinal axis; a chamber suitable for accommodating a reaction assembly, a proximate and a distal end heater assembly, and a side heater assembly. When assembled, the chamber is contained within the containment tube and arranged longitudinally between the proximate and distal end heater assemblies. The side heater assembly is disposed adjacent the interior side surface and electrically connects the end heater assemblies with each other. Each end heater assembly has a respective peripheral side disposed adjacent the interior side surface Heat is produced in the chamber in response to an electric current flowing through the end and side heater assemblies. At least a proximate side heater barrier spaces apart the side heater assembly from at least the proximate end heater assembly, adjacent its peripheral side, operative to prevent a portion of the side heater assembly from intruding between the peripheral side of the proximate end heater assembly and the containment tube and short-circuiting at least part of the proximate end heater assembly, when the end heater assemblies move towards each other in response to a force applied by the ultra-high pressure furnace onto the capsule assembly along the central longitudinal axis.

    Abstract: Large-scale manufacturing of gallium nitride boules using m-plane or wedge-shaped seed crystals can be accomplished using ammonothermal growth methods. Large-area single crystal seed plates are suspended in a rack, placed in a large diameter autoclave or internally-heated high pressure apparatus along with ammonia and a mineralizer, and crystals are grown ammonothermally. The orientation of the m-plane or wedge-shaped seed crystals are chosen to provide efficient utilization of the seed plates and of the volume inside the autoclave or high pressure apparatus.

    Abstract: A method for large-scale manufacturing of gallium nitride boules. Large-area single crystal seed plates are suspended in a rack, placed in a large diameter autoclave or internally-heated high pressure apparatus along with ammonia and a mineralizer, and grown ammonothermally. The seed orientation and mounting geometry are chosen to provide efficient utilization of the seed plates and of the volume inside the autoclave or high pressure apparatus. The method is scalable up to very large volumes and is cost effective.
