Abstract

The invention discloses an LED (Light Emitting Diode) epitaxial structure with a P (Positive) type superlattice and a preparation method thereof. The epitaxial structure comprises a substrate, wherein a GaN (Gallium Nitride) buffer layer, an undoped GaN layer, an n (negative) type GaN layer, a multi-quantum well luminous layer, a first P type GaN layer, a P type AlGaN (Aluminium Gallium Nitride) electronic blocking layer and a second P type GaN layer are sequentially arranged on the substrate from bottom to top, and the P type superlattice formed by a PInGaN (P type Indium Gallium Nitride) potential well layer and a PAlGaN potential barrier layer in a periodic interactive overlapping way is arranged between the P type AlGaN electronic blocking layer and the second P type GaN layer. The PInGaN potential well layer in the P type superlattice generates and constrains a great number of holes for the formation of a two-dimensional hole high-density state; the PAlGaN potential barrier layer hinders the escape of the holes; in such a way, the transverse spreading of the holes is improved, the electron overflow can be prevented, the hole injection efficiency is increased and the electron and hole recombination probability is improved; and therefore, the brightness of a chip can be improved by 5-10%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to an LED epitaxial structure with a P-type superlattice and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Due to its excellent characteristics, GaN has become an important material for manufacturing light-emitting devices, high-temperature and high-power devices and ultraviolet detectors. P-type doping is an essential part of manufacturing GaN devices, so it has attracted the attention of many research groups. Due to the passivation of Mg, the resistivity of untreated GaN:Mg is as high as 10Q·cm, and Mg must be activated after growth to obtain P-type GaN that can be applied to devices. In 1989 H. Amano made a major breakthrough in P-type. He used low-energy electron beam radiation (IEEBI) to process Mg-doped GaN and obtained low-resistance P-type GaN. In 1991, S. Nakamura and others invented the rapid thermal annealing method (Rapid Thermal Annealing), and ...
