    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.
