Abstract

The invention provides a novel LED epitaxial growth method. LED internal quantum efficiency can be effectively improved, LED light emitting intensity is improved, and LED light emitting wave length stability is improved. The LED epitaxial growth method includes the steps that a low-temperature buffer layer, a non-doping high-temperature GaN layer, a Si-doping high-temperature GaN layer, an InxGa1-xN / AlyGa1-yN multi-quantum-well layer, a p-AlGaN layer and a Mg-doping p-GaN layer grow sequentially, wherein the inequations 0<=x<=1 and 0<=y<=1 are satisfied; multiple InaGa1-aN thin layers with the smaller lattice constants are interposed in the InxGa1-xN quantum well growth process during at least one period, wherein the inequation 0<=a<x<=1 is satisfied; multiple AlbGa1-bN thin layers with the larger lattice constants are interposed in the AlyGa1-yN quantum well growth process during at least one period, wherein the inequation 0<=b<y<=1 is satisfied.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the preparation technology of semiconductor electronic devices, in particular to a new LED epitaxial growth method. Background technique: [0002] In recent years, III-nitrides have been widely used in optoelectronic devices such as light-emitting diodes, lasers, and detectors, and have shown good development prospects. GaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are the most promising solid-state light sources for general lighting in the future, and their wide application will save a lot of energy. The usual LED epitaxial growth process is: using MOCVD equipment, first grow a buffer buffer layer on a sapphire substrate, then grow a layer of undoped high-temperature GaN layer, and then grow a layer of Si-doped high-temperature n-GaN to provide composite electrons, and then grow In x Ga 1-x N / Al y Ga 1-y N (0≤x≤1, 0≤y≤1) multi-quantum well layer, then grow a p-AlGaN layer, and finally grow a Mg-doped p-GaN layer to provide hole...
