Abstract

We have focused to grow cubic GaN (c-GaN) on Si(100) substrates using boronmonophosphide (BP) buffer crystals. The growth of GaN was carried out by MOVPE on BP/Si(100) substrate of 2 inches in diameter. By the several evaluations, it was recognized that when the growth temperature is around 750˚C, c-GaN was dominant. The typical growth rate was about 0.5μm/h. We obtained c-GaN layer over 2.5μm thick without cracking.
