Abstract

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a current blocking layer of a gallium nitride-based light-emitting diode (LED). The method comprises the following steps of: 1, preparing a gallium nitride LED epitaxial sheet which consists of a substrate, N-type gallium nitride, a multi-quantum well, aluminum gallium nitride EBL (Electron Blocking Layer) and P-type gallium nitride; 2, isolating the gallium nitride LED epitaxial sheet into a plurality of repeating units, wherein each unit is an independent LED chip; 3, performing surface treatment on a selected region of the upper surface of each unit to form a current blocking layer on the central region of the surface layer of the P-type gallium nitride; and 4, manufacturing an electrode P which covers the entire current blocking layer and the P-type gallium nitride on the upper surface of each unit to finish manufacturing the current blocking layer of the gallium nitride-based LED.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to the technical field of GaN-based light-emitting diode devices. Background technique [0002] GaN-based LED is an electroluminescent device, so it is necessary to make electrodes on the surface of the luminescent material, and inject current from the electrodes to drive the LED to emit light. The size of the electrode has a great influence on the photoelectric performance of the LED. On the one hand, the larger the electrode area, the easier the current injection, the more uniform the current distribution, and the lower the working voltage, which is conducive to improving the electro-optical conversion efficiency; On the one hand, the electrodes are all light-absorbing materials, and the larger the area, the larger the light-shielding surface, which will lead to a decrease in the electro-optical conversion efficiency. In order to solve this contradiction, the industry has ...
