Abstract

To provide a group-III nitride semiconductor freestanding substrate, with carrier concentration of a peripheral part of a n-type group-III nitride semiconductor freestanding substrate set to be lower than the carrier concentration inside of the peripheral part. In this freestanding substrate, preferably value Δσ obtained by dividing a difference between a maximum value of the carrier concentration and a minimum value of the carrier concentration in a surface of the freestanding substrate by the maximum value of the carrier concentration is greater than 0.05, and the carrier concentration in any place in the surface of the freestanding substrate exceeds 5.0×1017 cm−3.
