Abstract

A process for producing an inexpensive large high-quality GaN substrate which comprises forming a MgO buffer layer on a high-quality substrate, generating a ZnO layer on the MgO buffer layer while performing polarity control, growing a GaN layer on the ZnO layer while performing polarity control, and melting the ZnO layer, thereby producing a GaN substrate.
