Abstract

The article reviews current state of the art in growing large sapphire crystals used for epitaxial substrates of GaN light-emitting diodes and optical windows. Results of crystal growth with the Czochralski, Kyropoulos, heat-exchanger methods, horizontal directional crystallization, and edge-defined film-fed growth are demonstrated and discussed, along with recommendations of useful tools to increase crystal size.
