Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, since the In composition (20%--35%) in the quantum well InGaN material in the green LED epitaxial growth process is much higher than that in the blue LED (10%--20%), it will mean that the growth of green Light LED quantum well materials require a lower growth temperature, which is quite different from the growth temperature of n-type GaN layers, which will lead to poor lattice quality of quantum well materials and reduce the height and performance of green LEDs; in addition, During the growth process of green LED multi-quantum well materials, the lattice between the high-temperature n-type GaN layer and the quantum well material changes greatly, which will lead to serious lattice mismatch and polarization effects, resulting in electron-hole wave function spatial separation phenomenon
Therefore, the radiative recombination efficiency of green LEDs will decrease compared to blue LEDs

Abstract

The invention discloses a green-ray LED structure with a component gradual-change buffering layer. The green-ray LED structure comprises a sapphire substrate layer, a GaN nucleating layer, an undoped GaN layer, a high-temperature n-type GaN layer, an InxGa1-xN / GaN multi-quantum-well layer and a p-type GaN layer, and is characterized in that the low-temperature component gradual-change n-type InyGa1-yN buffering layer is arranged between the high-temperature n-type GaN layer and the InxGa1-xN / GaN multi-quantum-well layer. As the stress borne by the InGaN multi-quantum-well light emitting layer can be buffered through the arrangement of the buffering layer, the crystalline quality of the quantum-well structure layer is improved, non-radiative recombination is reduced, and the light emitting efficiency of green-ray LEDs is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of epitaxy of green light LEDs, in particular to a green light LED structure with a composition gradient buffer layer. Background technique [0002] At present, more and more green LED related products have begun to appear on the market. Green LED has a wide range of applications and can be used in large indoor and outdoor displays, traffic lights, backlights (tablets, mobile phone displays, etc.), portable lighting systems, fixed color lighting systems, optical storage systems and many other fields. The market share of green LED related products is also gradually increasing, and the market has higher and higher performance requirements for green LED products. How to obtain high-height, high-quality green LED products has become a hot research topic. [0003] However, since the In composition (20%--35%) in the quantum well InGaN material in the green LED epitaxial growth process is much higher than that in...
