Problems solved by technology

Since the quantum barrier layer in contact with the P-type electron blocking layer in the MQW layer uses GaN as the growth material, and the P-type electron blocking layer covering it uses AlGaN as the growth material, so many electrons are blocked in the P-type electron blocking layer. In the quantum barrier layer in contact with the electron blocking layer, many holes also stay in this layer, and then many electrons and holes recombine in this layer, emitting light with a wavelength close to the ultraviolet band, which will affect the improvement of the luminous efficiency of blue-green LEDs

Embodiment 1

[0027] see figure 1 Embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a blue-green light diode epitaxial wafer, the epitaxial wafer includes a substrate layer 1, and a buffer layer 2, an N-type layer 3, a multi-quantum well layer 4, a P Type electron blocking layer 5 and P type layer 6.

[0028] Wherein, the substrate layer 1 includes but not limited to a sapphire substrate layer.

[0029] which, combined with figure 2 , the multi-quantum well layer 4 includes a composite layer formed alternately by several quantum barrier layers a and several quantum well layers b, and a transition layer c covering the composite layer. The layer in contact with the transition layer c in the composite layer is the quantum well layer b. The quantum barrier layer a uses GaN as a growth material, and the quantum well layer b uses InGaN as a growth material. The transition layer c also uses GaN as the growth material, but the thickness of the transition layer c is smaller than that of the quantu...

[0036] 201 : growing a buffer layer 2 on the substrate layer 1 .

[0037] Specifically, the growth of the buffer layer 2 includes growth of a low-temperature buffer layer and growth of a high-temperature buffer layer. First, at a temperature of 625° C., a layer of non-doped GaN with a thickness of 30 nm is grown on the substrate layer 1 , which is a low-temperature buffer layer. Then, the temperature is raised to 1220° C., and a layer of non-doped GaN with a thickness of 3 μm is grown on the low-temperature buffer layer, which is a high-temperature buffer layer. So far, the growth of the buffer layer 2 is completed.

[0038] It is easy to know that before this step, the method further includes: cleaning the surface of the substrate layer 1 . ...

Embodiment 3

[0056] Embodiment 3 of the present invention provides a blue-green light diode epitaxial wafer. The structure of the epitaxial wafer is basically the same as that of the epitaxial wafer in Embodiment 1. The difference lies in that the combination image 3 , the composition of the transition layer c gradually changes from the growth material of the quantum well layer b to the growth material of the P-type electron blocking layer 5 . That is to say, in the composition of the transition layer c, the proportion of the growth material of the quantum well layer b gradually decreases, and the proportion of the growth material of the P-type electron blocking layer 5 gradually increases, and the composition of the transition layer c changes from all to The growth material of the quantum well layer b gradually becomes all the growth material of the P-type electron blocking layer 5 .

Abstract

The invention discloses a blue and green diode epitaxial slice and belongs to the technical field of diodes. The epitaxial slice comprises a substrate layer and a buffering layer, an N-type layer, a multi-quantum well layer, a P-type electronic barrier layer and a P-type layer which sequentially cover the substrate layer, wherein the multi-quantum well layer comprises a composite layer and a transitional layer covering the composite layer and the composite layer consists of a plurality of quantum barrier layers and a plurality of quantum well layers which are arranged alternately; and one layer (in contact with the transitional layer) in the composite layer is the quantum well layer. According to the blue and green diode epitaxial slice, the translational layer replaces a quantum barrier layer (in contact with the P-type electronic barrier layer) in the multi-quantum well layer of the conventional epitaxial slice, so that the number of electrons stopped in the layer is reduced, and the number of cavities in the layer is also reduced; therefore, the electrons and the cavities which are compounded in the layer are reduced, and light of which the wavelength is close to that of the ultrasonic band is reduced; and finally, the luminous efficiency of a blue and green diode is improved.
