The acidic ammonothermal method is a key technological route for the large-scale production of large-size, high-quality gallium nitride single crystals. The extreme service conditions impose exceptionally stringent demands on the design and manufacturing of the high-temperature and ultra-high pressure reactors used for growing gallium nitride crystals. In this paper, the design requirements for the high-temperature and ultra-high pressure reactors are introduced firstly, and the potential failure modes are identified. Then, the key design and manufacturing technologies are elaborated, including strength design of high-temperature and ultra-high pressure reactors, high-temperature and ultra-high pressure sealing, development of special-shaped cylinder forging made of high-strength and high-toughness nickel based superalloys, diffusion bonding by hot isostatic pressing, as well as the inspection and the in-service performance of the reactors. Finally, relevant research recommendations are proposed for the development of larger diameter reactors.
