There is provided a method for manufacturing a nitride semiconductor template constituted by forming a nitride semiconductor layer on a substrate, comprising: (a) preparing a pattern-substrate as the substrate, with a concavo-convex pattern formed on a front surface of the pattern-substrate, (b) forming a first layer by epitaxially growing a nitride semiconductor containing aluminum on the concavo-convex pattern of the pattern-substrate, in a thickness of not flattening a front surface; (c) applying annealing to the first layer; and (d) forming a second layer by epitaxially growing a nitride semiconductor containing aluminum so as to overlap on the first layer after performing (c), and in a thickness of flattening a front surface, and constituting the nitride semiconductor layer by the first layer and the second layer. |
