Abstract

The invention discloses a method for manufacturing a p-type GaAs-based laser diode. The method comprises the following steps: forming a GaAs substrate, and depositing a p-type coating layer, a p-type photoconductive layer, an active layer, an n-type barrier layer, an n-type photoconductive layer and an n-type coating layer in sequence. A method for forming the GaAs substrate comprises the following steps: putting a GaAs wafer in a high-temperature and high-pressure device; pressurizing while heating the GaAs wafer for 10-15 minutes at the heating temperature of 860-890 DEG C and the pressurizing pressure of 5.0-5.5GPa; ending heating and pressurizing so as to recover the GaAs wafer to the normal temperature and normal pressure; annealing for 20-30 minutes in the high-temperature and high-pressure device, and then, taking out the GaAs wafer. According to the method, the crystal defect density in the substrate of the light emitting diode can be obviously reduced, the performance of the laser diode is improved, and the service life of the laser diode is prolonged.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a manufacturing method of a laser diode. Background technique [0002] A laser diode is a diode formed of semiconductor materials, and its basic structure includes a substrate and a P / N cladding layer deposited on the substrate in sequence, an active layer and a P / N cladding layer, and an N-type and a P cladding layer. Ohmic contact on the type cladding layer, where the substrate plays an important role in the performance of the laser diode. Sapphire is a commonly used substrate, but due to the mismatch of quality and thermal stress with the heterogeneous epitaxial layer on it, it will crack due to different expansion degrees after heating, resulting in device damage. Another type of substrate includes GaN, GaAs, InP and other semiconductor materials. The above-mentioned semiconductor materials used as substrates generally contain various defects, such as dislocations, gaps or vacancies, etc. The defects will cause crystal st...
