Abstract

The invention discloses a gallium nitride semiconductor light-emitting diode with a tilt quantum well structure. By means of an energy band engineering design, an InGaN quantum well is designed to be a tilt structure so as to modulate the forbidden band width of the well. According to the invention, a polarization electric field produced due to a polarization effect in the quantum well can be overcome so as to make the distribution of electrons and holes more uniform, and thus, the quantum efficiency of the light-emitting diode is increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of gallium nitride semiconductor epitaxial design and growth, specifically through the energy band engineering design and the optimization of the quantum well structure to promote the wave function overlap of electrons and holes in the well, thereby realizing the quantum efficiency of gallium nitride semiconductor light-emitting diodes and improvement of luminous efficiency. Background technique [0002] For GaN semiconductor light-emitting diodes grown on the C-plane of a sapphire substrate, due to the existence of the C-plane polarization effect, a polarization potential field exists in the quantum well, which makes the conduction band and valence band tilt in the well, and the electrons and space Holes are spatially separated. It will have two adverse effects: one is to redshift the emission wavelength of the quantum well, and the other is to reduce the efficiency of radiative recombination in the well. The forme...
