Abstract

A method of growing a semiconductor thin film by MOCVD including doping with a doping gas producing a carrier concentration regulated by the decomposition speed of the doping gas, selectively irradiating the doping gas with ultraviolet light before the doping gas reaches the growing film, whereby the decomposition speed of the doping gas is increased.
