Abstract

The invention relates to GaN-based light emitting diode (LED) chips in a vertical structure and a manufacturing method of the GaN-based LED chips. Laser scribing technology is adopted to divide the surface of an epitaxial wafer of a sapphire into a table facet area and a reserved area; an electric conducting and reflecting layer, a diffusion impervious layer and an electric conducting bonding layer are manufactured on a table facet, and an electric conducting supporting substrate is bonded on the electric conducting bonding layer; a sapphire substrate is peeled by lasers, the size of a laser spot is equal to that of the table facet, a GaN-based epitaxial wafer layer on the table facet is transferred to the supporting substrate, a GaN-based epitaxial wafer layer on the reserved area is not irradiated by the lasers and reserved on the sapphire substrate, after the sapphire substrate is peeled, incision channels of the reserved area are formed in the supporting substrate, and components are incised along the incision channels. Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) corrosion is not needed, manufacturing cost of the chips is reduced, electric leakage of the chips is reduced, and yield of the chips is improved.
