Abstract
A substrate is set on a susceptor installed in a reactor and arranged horizontally. A cooling jacket is provided at a portion of the inner wall of the reactor that is opposite to the substrate. By flowing a given cooling medium through the cooling jacket with a pump connected to the jacket, at least the opposite portion of the inner wall is cooled down, which inhibits the reaction between raw material gases introduced into the reactor. As a result, in fabricating a III-V nitride film, the film growth rate is developed and the crystal quality is developed.
