Abstract
Provided is an n-type GaN crystal, in which a donor impurity contained at the highest concentration is Ge, and which has a room-temperature resistivity of lower than 0.03 Ω·cm and a (004) XRD rocking curve FWHM of less than 20 arcsec. The n-type GaN crystal has two main surfaces, each having an area of 3 cmor larger. One of the two main surfaces can have a Ga polarity and can be inclined at an angle of 0° to 10° with respect to a (0001) crystal plane. Further, the n-type GaN crystal can have a diameter of 20 mm or larger.
