Therefore, laminates including a substrate and a nitride film are being studied for application as electronic devices such as blue light emitting diodes (LEDs) and blue laser diodes (LDs).

Therefore, it is very difficult to form a highly crystalline nitride film on a silicon substrate by the MOCVD method.
