- a method for manufacturing a group III nitride semiconductor light-emitting device (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as a light-emitting device) according to the present embodiment activates a gas containing a group V element and a metal material on a substrate 11 with plasma. Then, an intermediate layer 12 made of a group III nitride compound is formed, and an n-type semiconductor layer 14 made of a group III nitride semiconductor, a light-emitting layer 15, and a p-type half layer are formed on the intermediate layer 12.
- an intermediate layer 12 made of a group III nitride compound is formed on a substrate 11 by reacting a gas containing a group V element and a metal material activated by plasma.
- the n-type semiconductor layer 14 made of a group III nitride semiconductor, the light-emitting layer 15, and the p-type semiconductor layer 16 are sequentially stacked on the intermediate layer 12, and the intermediate layer 12
- the group V element is nitrogen
- the gas fraction of nitrogen in the gas is The film is formed in the range of more than 20% and less than 99%, and has a single crystal structure and is roughly structured.
- FIG. 1 is a diagram for explaining an example of a group III nitride semiconductor light emitting device according to the present invention, and is a schematic cross-sectional view showing an example of a laminated semiconductor in which a group III nitride semiconductor is formed on a substrate. It is.
- a laminated semiconductor 10 illustrated in FIG. 1 has a configuration in which a base layer 14a made of a group III nitride semiconductor is laminated on an intermediate layer 12 formed on a substrate 11, and the middle layer 12 is formed on the substrate 11.
- the p-type semiconductor layer 16 including the p-type contact layer 16b is sequentially stacked.
- a translucent positive electrode 17 is laminated on a p-type semiconductor layer 16 and a positive electrode bonding pad 18 is formed thereon, as in the example shown in FIGS.
- the light emitting device 1 in which the negative electrode 19 is laminated on the exposed region 14d formed in the n-type contact layer 14b of the n-type semiconductor layer 14 can be configured.
- the substrate 11 on which the group III nitride semiconductor crystal is epitaxially grown on the surface is not particularly limited, and various materials can be selected and used.
- Examples include aluminum tantalum, titanium oxide, titanium oxide, titanium oxide, hafnium, tungsten, and molybdenum.
- an intermediate layer is formed without using ammonia
- an underlayer described later is formed by a method using ammonia, and the substrate material is in contact with ammonia at a high temperature.
- the intermediate layer of this embodiment functions as a coating layer, which prevents chemical modification of the substrate. It is effective.
- the laminated semiconductor 10 of the present embodiment has an intermediate structure having a single crystal structure made of a group III nitride compound by reacting a metal raw material and a gas containing a group V element by being activated by plasma on the substrate 11.
- Layer 12 is deposited.
- a film formed by a method using a metal material that has been converted to plasma as in this embodiment has an effect of being easy to obtain orientation.
- Group III nitride semiconductor devices such as LEDs and LDs require current to flow in a certain fixed direction. For this reason, orientation is required for group III nitride semiconductor devices with good crystallinity. Since the group III nitride semiconductor device is epitaxially grown on the intermediate layer 12, the intermediate layer 12 also needs good crystallinity and orientation.
- MOCVD is a method in which organic metal molecules are decomposed and metal elements are stacked, so a substrate serving as a template is required to orient the film. It becomes. For this reason, when the intermediate layer 12 is a low-temperature buffer layer grown on the substrate 11, the substrate is the base, so that the substrates that can be used are limited.
- the charged particles struck out in the plasma are not necessarily present in an atomic state as charged particles having bonds such as dimers. Is also present. Such charged particles serve as a raw material for forming the film.
- Such charged particles have a moment, they are affected by the electric field due to sputtering, and are deposited on the substrate 11 with specific anisotropy. Due to this anisotropy, the film exhibits an alignment structure, so that the alignment film can be formed by sputtering regardless of the substrate used.
- the intermediate layer 12 needs to cover at least 60% or more, preferably 80% or more, of the surface 11a of the substrate 11, and is formed so as to cover 90% or more. It is preferable from the functional aspect as a layer. In addition, the intermediate layer 12 is formed so as to cover 100% of the surface 11a, that is, on the surface 1 la of the substrate 11 without any gaps.
- the substrate 11 When the region where the intermediate layer 12 covers the surface 11a of the substrate 11 becomes small, the substrate 11 is exposed to a large extent, so that it does not function as a coat layer and reacts between the semiconductor raw material for growing the group III nitride semiconductor crystal and the substrate. And the flatness of the n-type semiconductor layer formed on the intermediate layer 12 is impaired. There is a risk.
- the intermediate layer When the intermediate layer is formed on the substrate 11, it may be formed so as to cover only the surface 11a of the substrate 11, or may be formed so as to cover the surface 11a and the side surface of the substrate 11.
