Bulk Cubic Gallium Nitride

Abstract

Bulk cubic gallium nitride is made by charging into a reaction vessel to a fill of 25-95% having a temperature difference between its ends of at least 1 deg C a gallium precursor, sufficient amount of an acid mineralizer to form product zinc blende gallium nitride, and sufficient amount of ammonia to at least solubilize the precursor; sealing the reaction vessel; heating contents of the reaction vessel to at least 150 deg C while autogenously pressurizing contents of the reaction vessel to at least 500 psi for a duration sufficient to form the product zinc blende gallium nitride; cooling contents of the reaction vessel; and removing from the reaction vessel the product zinc blende gallium nitride.
