Semiconductor substrate, light emitting device, and method for producing the same

摘要

A method for producing a semiconductor substrate of the present invention, includes the steps: forming a first patterned mask containing a material having a growth suppressing effect on a lower substrate; growing a semiconductor crystal on the lower substrate via the first patterned mask to form a first semiconductor crystal layer; forming a second patterned mask containing a material having a growth suppressing effect on or above the lower substrate, the second patterned mask at least having a surface which is positioned at a level different from a level of a surface of the first patterned mask, with respect to a surface of the lower substrate; and growing a semiconductor crystal on or above the lower substrate via the second patterned mask to form a second semiconductor crystal layer.
