Embodiment Construction

[0032] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0033] A method for manufacturing a GaN-based vertical structure light-emitting diode based on an inverted rough surface, the process of which is implemented as follows:

[0034] like Figure 1a As shown, an undoped GaN material layer 110a with a thickness of 2 microns is epitaxially grown on a sapphire substrate 100 by MOCVD method;

[0035] like Figure 1b As shown, the wafer prepared in step 1 is immersed in a high-temperature molten KOH solution. The temperature of the KOH solution is heated to 280° C., and the etching time lasts for 10 minutes. The undoped GaN material layer 110a is anisotropic in the high-temperature molten KOH solution. Etching forms several inverted hexagonal rhomboid grooves, the opening diameter of the hexagonal rhomboid grooves is between 1 micron and 3 microns, and a discontinuous gap is formed between the bottom of the un...

Abstract

The invention discloses a manufacturing method of an LED based on an inversed roughened surface Gan-base vertical structure, which comprises the following steps: growing a non-doped GaN material layeron a spphire substrate by adopting an MOCVD method; and continuously growing an LED extension illuminating material layer after carrying out anisotropic etching on the non-doped GaN material layer. After etching, the bottom surface of the non-doped GaN material layer and spphire form a discontinuous bonding interface, on the one hand, the LED extension stress of the release part improves the quality of an LED extension crystal lattice and improves the internal quanntum efficiency; and on the other hand, after the spphire substrate is removed, the discontinuous bonding interface naturally inverses into a roughened light emergent surface and improves the light collection efficiency of LED devices, therefore, the LED with GaN-based vertical structure has higher illuminating efficiency and isparticularly suitable for heavy current drive.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a GaN-based semiconductor light-emitting device, in particular to a method for manufacturing a GaN-based vertical structure light-emitting diode based on an inverted rough surface. Background technique [0002] Because sapphire substrates are easy to manufacture and low in price, most gallium nitride (GaN)-based epitaxial materials are grown on sapphire substrates at present. However, the GaN-based epitaxy using sapphire as the growth substrate has the following disadvantages: 1. There is a large lattice mismatch and thermal mismatch between the GaN-based semiconductor material and the sapphire substrate, resulting in the GaN-based epitaxy material High defect density (10 8 -10 10 cm -2 ), so that most of the electrical input is converted to non-radiative recombination. In order to solve this problem, technologies such as lateral epitaxial growth (ELOG) and patterned sapphire substrate (PSS) have ...
