Abstract

The Na-flux method is a promising for fabricating GaN crystals with high quality. In our previous study, we found that the surface morphology and transparency of these crystals were improved by raising the growth temperature. Increasing the threshold pressure of nitrogen for GaN growth, however, made GaN growth at high temperatures difficult. In this study, we attempted to grow GaN crystals by the Na-flux method with the addition of Li to the flux, which promoted the solubility of nitrogen in the flux. As a result, the threshold pressure of nitrogen for GaN growth decreased, and GaN crystals with high crystallinity were grown at 900 °C. In addition, we found that the crystallinity of the grown GaN crystals was improved and the concentration of impurities in the grown GaN crystals was decreased by raising the growth temperature.
