Abstract: The present invention provides a method for producing a group III nitride compound semiconductor substrate including: (a) forming a first semiconductor film over a substrate, the first semiconductor film made of a first group III nitride compound semiconductor and provided with a step; (b) forming a second semiconductor film made of a second group III nitride compound semiconductor having a different thermal expansion coefficient from that of the first group III nitride compound semiconductor on the first semiconductor film; and (c) cooling the substrate and separating the second semiconductor film from the first semiconductor film. Thus, a large-area group III nitride compound semiconductor substrate can be produced in high yields and with high reproducibility.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To manufacture a highly precise waveguide structure with good control and thereby enable single transverse mode oscillation, by forming a second conductive type first semiconductor layer, whose Al composition ratio is smaller than that of a first conductive type etching stop layer on the etch stopping layer. SOLUTION: Since an etch stopping layer 17 whose Al composition ratio is larger than that of an n-type current blocking layer 12 is formed immediately below the n-type current blocking layer 12, etching of the n-type current blocking layer 12 can be blocked in the etch stopping layer 17. Therefore, it is possible to accurately and uniformly control the etching depth of the n-type current blocking layer 12 and to obtain a waveguide structure which is more precise than a conventional one. A first p-type clad layer 8 whose Al composition ratio is smaller than that of the etch stopping layer 17 is formed immediately below the etching stop layer 17. Since the lower the Al composition ratio is, the is larger the refractive index, therefore, light confinement can be carried out well in this structure.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To manufacture a large-area III nitride base compound semiconductor substrate with a satisfactory yield and satisfactory reproducibility. SOLUTION: First, a first semiconductor film 13 that is formed of a first III nitride based compound semiconductor having a stepped portion 13c is formed on a substrate 11 (Fig. b). Thereafter, a second semiconductor film 14a composed of a second III nitride based compound semiconductor having a thermal expansion coefficient that is different from that of the first III nitride based compound semiconductor is formed (Fig. c). Thereafter, the substrate 11 is cooled, and the second semiconductor film 14a is isolated from the first semiconductor film 13 to obtain the III nitride based compound semiconductor substrate 14.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To lower resistivity in p- and n-type ohmic electrodes of a semiconductor device composed of a III-V nitride compound semiconductor. SOLUTION: On a sapphire substrate 1, an undoped GaN buffer layer 2, an undoped GaN layer 3, a p-type doped GaN 4a doped with Mg, which is a p-type impurity, are sequentially grown in crystallized states (a). Then a p-type electrode 9 is formed by sequentially vapor-depositing alloy film 8 made of Ni and Mg and an Au film 6 on the p-type doped GaN film 4a (b). Thereafter, the p-type doped GaN layer 4a is changed into a low-resistance GaN layer 4 by activating Mg contained in the layer 4a by expelling hydrogen from the layer 4a by subjecting it to temperature raising and lowering of the temperature of the substrate 1 between 70 deg.C and room temperature three times.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To exclude effectively at a comparably low temperature hydrogen from the inside of a III-V semiconductor crystal without performing any heat treatment between its crystal growth and electrode formation, by forming a conductive thin film for adsorbing hydrogen therein on a conductive III-V nitride semiconductor including p-type magnesium which is formed on a substrate. SOLUTION: In a p-type III-V nitride semiconductor, there are formed in succession on a GaN substrate 1 an undoped GaN layer 2, a Mg-added GaN layer 3, and a Pd film 5. That is, in an MOCVD apparatus of an atmospheric pressure, heating the GaN substrate 1 under the atmosphere comprising a mixture gas of NH3 and hydrogen, the surface of the GaN substrate 1 is cleaned and trimethyl gallium is fed thereto to form the undoped GaN layer 2. Then, feeding thereto Cp2 Mg, the Mg-added GaN layer 3 is formed. Next, the GaN substrate 1 is taken into an electron-beam deposition apparatus to form the Pd thin film 5 on the GaN layer 3. Subsequently, the heat treatment of the GaN substrate 1 is performed in an atmosphere of a nitrogen gas.
