Summary:Hydride phase vapor epitaxy (HVPE) growth apparatus, methods and materials and structures grown thereby. A HVPE growth apparatus includes generation, accumulation and growth zones. A first reactive gas reacts with an indium source inside the generation zone to produce a first gas product having an indium-containing compound. The first gas product is transported to the accumulation zone where it cools and condenses into a source material having an indium-containing compound. The source material is collected in the accumulation zone and evaporated. Vapor or gas resulting from evaporation of the source material forms reacts with a second reactive gas in the growth zone for growth of ternary and quaternary materials including indium gallium nitride, indium aluminum nitride, and indium gallium aluminum nitride.
