Method of manufacturing substrate for forming device, and method of manufacturing nitride-based semiconductor laser diode
First Claim
1. A method of manufacturing a substrate for forming a device, the method comprising the steps of:
- preparing a GaN substrate of which the a-plane or m-plane is set to a main plane;
masking the main plane of the GaN substrate; and
applying the masked GaN substrate to etching liquid, thereby forming a crystallographic surface.

Abstract
Provided is a method of manufacturing a semiconductor laser diode. The method includes the steps of: preparing a GaN substrate having an a-plane or m-plane GaN layer formed thereon; forming a plurality of laser diode structures on the GaN layer; etching the GaN substrate such that a cutting reference line is formed in a groove shape along the crystal surface of the a-plane or m-plane, not a main plane; and cutting the GaN substrate along the cutting reference line so as to form a mirror surface of the semiconductor laser diode, the mirror surface coinciding with the crystal surface of the a-plane or m-plane, not the main plane.
