The lower roller (70) and the upper roller (80) are rockably supported with respect to a main body (20a). A flat spring (210) which urges the upper roller (80) is attached to an upper case (200a) that is attached to the main body (20a).

Abstract: The GaN facet growth method produces defect accumulating regions H on masks by forming a dotmask or a stripemask on an undersubstrate, growing GaN in a reaction furnace in vapor phase, inducing GaN crystals on exposed parts without covering the masks, inviting facets starting from verges of the masks and producing defect accumulating regions H on the mask. The defect accumulating regions H have four versions, that is, non (O), polycrystal (P), c-axis inclining single crystal (A) and orientation inversion (J). The best is the orientation inversion region (J). A sign of occurrence of the orientation inversion regions (J) is beaks of inversion orientation appearing on facets. GaN is grown on a masked undersubstrate by supplying a carbon material at a hydrocarbon partial pressure of 10 Pa to 5 kPa for 0.5 hour to 2 hour by an HVPE facet growth method without burying facets.
