Method of manufacturing group III nitride semiconductor substrate, group III nitride semiconductor substrate, and bulk crystal

Abstract

There is provided a method of manufacturing a group III nitride semiconductor substrate including: a fixing step S10 of fixing abase substrate, which includes a group III nitride semiconductor layer having a semipolar plane as a main surface, to a susceptor; a first growth step S11 of forming a first growth layer by growing a group III nitride semiconductor over the main surface of the group III nitride semiconductor layer in a state in which the base substrate is fixed to the susceptor using an HVPE method; a cooling step S12 of cooling a laminate including the susceptor, the base substrate, and the first growth layer; and a second growth step S13 of forming a second growth layer by growing a group III nitride semiconductor over the first growth layer in a state in which the base substrate is fixed to the susceptor using the HVPE method.
