    摘要: The present invention provides a method for producing a Group III nitride crystal, capable of producing a Group III nitride crystal in a large size with few defects and high quality. The method is a method for producing a Group III nitride crystal (13), including: a seed crystal selection step of selecting plural parts of a Group III nitride crystal layer (11) as seed crystals for generation and growth of Group III nitride crystals (13); a contact step of causing the surfaces of the seed crystals to be in contact with an alkali metal melt; a crystal growth step of causing a Group III element and nitrogen to react with each other under a nitrogen-containing atmosphere in the alkali metal melt to generate and grow the Group III nitride crystals (13), wherein the seed crystals are hexagonal crystals, in the seed crystal selection step, the seed crystals are arranged so that m-planes of the respective crystals grown from the seed crystals that are adjacent to each other do not substantially coincide with each other, and in the crystal growth step, the plural Group III nitride crystals (13) grown from the plural seed crystals by the growth of the Group III nitride crystals (13) are bound.

    摘要: A crystal growth apparatus includes: a raw material supplying part that mixes raw materials including a group III element metal and an alkali metal; a growing part disposed at a stage under the raw material supplying part, the growing part having a seed substrate; a tilting mechanism that tilts the raw material supplying part and the growing part; a heater that heats the raw material supplying part and the growing part; a control part that controls an operation of the tilting mechanism; and a supply port that supplies a nitrogen element-containing substance to the growing part, wherein the raw material supplying part having an opening facing to the growing part, the opening being disposed at a bottom portion and one edge portion of the raw material supplying part, and the control part controls the tilting mechanism so as to tilt the raw material supplying part toward the other edge portion on the side opposite to the one edge portion so as to prevent the raw materials from entering the opening when the raw materials are mixed, and the control part controls the tilting mechanism so as to tilt the raw material supplying part toward the one edge portion so that the raw materials drop through the opening to the growing part when the mixing of the raw materials is completed.
