Abstract

A process for producing an epitaxial layer of gallium nitride (GaN) by hydride vapor-phase epitaxy (HVPE), as well as to the epitaxial layers which can be obtained by this process are provided. Such a process makes it possible to avoid parasitic GaN deposition on the walls of the reactor.
