Abstract
ABSTRACTWide bandgap group-III nitride semiconductors are currently experiencing the most exciting development. High brightness blue and green light emitting diodes (LEDs) are commercialized, and UV and blue laser diodes (LDs), high-speed transistors (TRs) and UV photodetectors (PDs) with low dark current, which will be able to operate in harsh environments, have been demonstrated. In this paper, renaissance and progress in crystal growth and conductivity control of nitride semiconductors in the last quarter century are reviewed as the groundwork for all of those high-performance devices. My personal history of nitride research will be also introduced.
