Abstract

The invention provides an InGaN / GaN superlattice buffer layer structure, a preparation method of the InGaN / GaN superlattice buffer layer structure, and an LED chip comprising the InGaN / GaN superlattice buffer layer structure. The InGaN / GaN superlattice buffer layer structure comprises a shallow quantum well layer, an MQW layer and a superlattice buffer layer disposed between the shallow quantum well layer and the MQW layer. The superlattice buffer layer comprises a plurality of buffer layer units stacked in order. Each buffer layer unit comprises an InGaN layer and a plurality of doped layers. Each doped layer comprises a uGaN layer and an nGaN layer which are stacked in order. Each doped layer is arranged on the corresponding InGaN layer. The InGaN / GaN superlattice buffer layer structure has the advantages that the quality of active region crystal of the LED chip can be improved, active region lattice mismatch and thermal stress mismatch are reduced, electron leakage is reduced effectively, carriers and holes can be recombined more efficiently, and luminous efficiency of devices is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to multiple quantum wells, in particular to an InGaN / GaN superlattice buffer layer and a preparation method thereof. Another aspect of the present invention also provides an LED chip containing the structure. Background technique [0002] Most of the existing LED chips grow multiple quantum well (MQW) layers directly on the shallow quantum well layer. The MQW layer includes well layers and barrier layers stacked in sequence. Multi-layer, each layer will generate stress with the previous layer during the growth process, resulting in greater stress in the grown shallow quantum well layer. If the MQW layer is directly grown on the shallow quantum well layer, thermal stress mismatch in the MQW active region will be formed And the quality of the crystal decreases, which increases the number of V-type defects that grow on the MQW layer, increases the electron leakage, is not conducive to the uniform expansion of the current in ...
