摘要:
The GaN single-crystal substrate 11 in accordance with the present invention has a polished surface subjected to heat treatment for at least 10 minutes at a substrate temperature of at least 1020° C. in a mixed gas atmosphere containing at least an NH3 gas. As a consequence, an atomic rearrangement is effected in the surface of the substrate 11 in which a large number of minute defects are formed by polishing, so as to flatten the surface of the substrate 11. Therefore, the surface of an epitaxial layer 12 formed on the substrate 11 can be made flat.

Affords MOCVD reactors with which, while deposited films are uniformized in thickness, film deposition efficiency can be improved. An MOCVD reactor (1) is furnished with a susceptor (5) and a duct (11). The susceptor (5) has a carrying surface for heating and carrying substrates (20). The duct (11) is for conducting reaction gas (G) to the substrates (20). The susceptor (5) is rotatable with the carrying surface fronting on the duct (11) interior. The duct (11) has channels (11b) and (11c), which merge on the duct end upstream of Point A4. The height of the duct (11) running along the reaction gas (G) flow direction monotonically diminishes heading toward the duct downstream end from Point P1 to Point P2, stays constant from Point P2 to Point P3, and monotonically diminishes heading downstream from Point P3. Point P1 lies upstream of Point A4, while Point P3 lies on the susceptor (5).

A vapor-phase process apparatus and a vapor-phase process method capable of satisfactorily maintaining quality of processes even when different types of processes are performed are obtained. A vapor-phase process apparatus includes a process chamber, gas supply ports serving as a plurality of gas introduction portions, and a gas supply portion (a gas supply member, a pipe, a flow rate control device, a pipe, and a buffer chamber). The process chamber allows flow of a reaction gas therein. The plurality of gas supply ports are formed in a wall surface (upper wall) of the process chamber along a direction of flow of the reaction gas. The gas supply portion can supply a gas into the process chamber at a different flow rate from each of one gas supply port and another gas supply port different from that one gas supply port among the plurality of gas supply ports.

Metal organic chemical vapor deposition equipment is metal organic chemical vapor deposition equipment for forming a film on a substrate by using a reactant gas, and includes a susceptor heating the substrate and having a holding surface for holding the substrate, and a flow channel for introducing the reactant gas to the substrate. The susceptor is rotatable with the holding surface kept facing an inner portion of the flow channel, and a height of the flow channel along a flow direction of the reactant gas is kept constant from a position to a position, and is monotonically decreased from the position to the downstream side. It is thereby possible to improve film formation efficiency while allowing the formed film to have a uniform thickness.

A method for manufacturing a light emitting element is directed to a method for manufacturing a light emitting element of a III-V group compound semiconductor having a quantum well structure including In and N, including the steps of: forming a well layer including In and N; forming a barrier layer having a bandgap wider than a bandgap of the well layer; and supplying a gas including N and interrupting epitaxial growth after the step of forming the well layer and before the step of forming the barrier layer. In the step of interrupting epitaxial growth, the gas having decomposition efficiency higher than decomposition efficiency of decomposition from N2 and NH3 into active nitrogen at 900° C. is supplied. In addition, in the step of interrupting epitaxial growth, the gas different from a gas used as an N source of the well layer is supplied.
