ABSTRACT:
A facet-forming layer made of nitride semiconductor containing at least aluminum is formed on a substrate made of gallium nitride (GaN). A facet surface inclined with respect to a C-surface is formed on the surface of the facet-forming layer, and a selective growth layer laterally grows from the inclined facet surface. As a result, the selective growth layer can substantially lattice-match an n-type cladding layer made of n-type AlGaN and grown on the selective growth layer. For example, a laser structure without cracks being generated can be obtained by crystal growth.
