Abstract
The present invention provides to a gallium nitride (GaN) semiconductor and a method of manufacturing the same, capable of reducing crystal defects caused by a difference in lattice parameters, and minimizing internal residual stress. In particular, since a high-quality GaN thin film is formed on a silicon wafer, manufacturing costs can be reduced by securing high-quality wafers with a large diameter at a low price, and applicability to a variety of devices and circuit can also be improved.
