ABSTRACT:
A nitride single crystal is produced using a growth solution containing an easily oxidizable material. A crucible for storing the growth solution, a pressure vessel for storing the crucible and charging an atmosphere containing at least nitrogen, and an oxygen absorber disposed inside the pressure vessel and outside the crucible are used to grow the nitride single crystal.
