摘要:
In a thermal radiation type substrate heating system of an MOCVD growth apparatus, a susceptor includes a semi-circular concavity is formed in each of wafer pockets at the forward area in a wafer rotation direction so that P-richness in a crystalline film grown at the gas upstream area is suppressed. Specifically, the conventional wafer holder exhibits a non-uniform temperature distribution so that the surface temperature is high at the gas upstream area and low at the downstream area. On the other hand, the structure according to the present invention realizes a high temperature at a wafer contact area and a low temperature at a wafer non-contact area, thus leading to a uniform surface temperature over the entire gas upstream and downstream areas.

A technique is provided which enables formation of nitride semiconductor layers with excellent flatness and excellent crystallinity on a gallium nitride substrate (GaN substrate), while improving the producibility of the semiconductor device using the GaN substrate. A gallium nitride substrate is prepared which has an upper surface having an off-angle of not less than 0.1° nor more than 1.0° in a direction, with respect to a (0001) plane. Then, a plurality of nitride semiconductor layers including an n-type semiconductor layer are stacked on the upper surface of the gallium nitride substrate to form a semiconductor device such as a semiconductor laser.

A method of fabricating a semiconductor laser device includes growing a first conductivity type InGaAsP mass-transport suppressing layer, a first conductivity type InP second lower cladding layer, an InGaAsP active layer, and a second conductivity type InP upper cladding layer on the entire surface of a first conductivity type InP first lower cladding layer, forming a mesa structure serving as a waveguide by etching and removing a portion where a waveguide is to be formed, and forming current blocking layers which confine a current to the waveguide on the opposite sides of the mesa structure by MOCVD. Since the first conductivity type InP second lower cladding layer is sandwiched between the InGaAsP mass-transport suppressing layer and the InGaAsP active layer, mass-transport of In atoms on the opposite sides of the second lower cladding layer is suppressed when the temperature rises before the growth of the current blocking layers. The deformation of opposite sides of the second lower cladding layer is prevented. Therefore, the leakage path width is controlled to a range where the light output power is a maximum, whereby a semiconductor laser device having improved maximum light output power is obtained.

A p-type InP buffer layer containing Zn in a low concentration and an undoped InP buffer layer having a carrier concentration of 3×1017 cm−3 or less are stacked on a p-type InP substrate containing Zn. On the undoped InP buffer layer, a Mg-doped p-type InP cladding layer, an InGaAsP optical confinement layer, an InGaAsP MQW active layer, an n-type InGaAsP optical confinement layer, and an n-type InP cladding layer are successively stacked. The diffusion of Zn from the p-type InP substrate into the InGaAsP MQW active layer is suppressed. Moreover, a steep doping profile can be formed in the vicinity of the active layer so that deterioration of device characteristics is suppressed.
