The seed crystal layer is formed in that a product of width w1 (unit: ?m) at the boundary thereof relative to the n-side contact layer along the arranging direction A and a thickness t1 (unit: ?m) along the direction of laminating the n-side contact layer is 15 or less. This can decrease the fluctuation of the crystallographic axes in the n-side contact layer.
