摘要:
A plurality of first layers made of AlGaN mixed crystal each having a thickness of the order of 1 to 100 nm and a plurality of second layers of p-type GaN with Mg each having a thickness of the order of 1 to 100 nm are alternately stacked. Since each of the first and second layers is thin, the stacked layers as a whole have properties of p-type AlGaN mixed crystal although the first layers do not include Mg and the second layers do not include Al. An Al source and a Mg source are temporally separated to be introduced in a stacking process. A reaction between the Al source and Mg source which may interfere desirable crystal growth is thereby prevented. Crystals of good quality are thus grown and electrical conductivity is thereby improved.
