From the viewpoint of the Gibbs classical thermodynamics, the mechanism of GaN vapor-phase crystallization is analyzed. When investigating the formation of neutral complexes of acceptor impurities with hydrogen, the key statements of the Rice and Debye-Hueckel theory are used. On the basis of the molecular-interaction analysis, the instability regions in the GaN-InN and GaN-AlN systems are revealed. Under the MOC-hydride-technology conditions, the dependences of the change in the composition of crystallizing solid solutions on the vapor-phase composition are determined.
