  • Publication number: 20250035096
    Abstract: A liquid delivery pump delivers a liquid with high flow rate accuracy in consideration of solvent expansion, pressure dependent leakage of the solvent, and flow rate dependent leakage of the solvent. A liquid delivery pump includes first and second plunger pumps connected together, having respective first and second plungers. A pressure sensor measures a liquid delivery pressure (P2) from the second plunger pump, and a controller controls the driving of the first and second plungers. The controller obtains a moving speed (v1) of the first plunger and a moving speed (v2) of the second plunger using a parameter (C1, C0) depending on the liquid delivery pressures (P1, P2), the liquid delivery pressure, and a target flow rate of the liquid. The parameter (C1, C0) is a parameter of an expression representing a relationship between the liquid delivery pressure (P2) and a flow rate (Q0) of the liquid.

    Abstract: A method for producing a GaN crystal is provided. In the method, front surfaces of a plurality of tiling GaN seeds closely arranged side by side on a flat surface of a plate are planarized.
