Problems solved by technology

However, due to the gradual change of In concentration, the hole distribution is uneven, and the optical power per unit area of ​​the chip varies greatly.
[0010] Chinese patent document CN102487113A discloses "GaN-based LED epitaxial wafer with improved luminous efficiency and its preparation and application", which relates to a GaN-based LED epitaxial wafer with improved luminous efficiency, using P-type InGaN and P-type GaN, on the one hand using InGaN The polarization effect of GaN and GaN produces a higher carrier concentration, which does not require nitrogen annealing again; on the other hand, the surface voids generated by the multi-period repeating structure of InGaN and GaN are used to achieve surface roughening, but the lattice of this method The mismatch is large, and the quality of the prepared epiwafer is relatively poor
However, this method makes the amount of In source more, which is not conducive to the control of production cost

Abstract

The invention relates to a P-type LED structure of an Al component gradual change type, and a manufacturing method. The structure sequentially comprises a substrate, a nucleating layer, a buffering layer, an N-type GaN layer, a multi-quantum-well light-emitting layer and a P-type AlYInXGa1-X-YN layer from the bottom to the top. After the doping quantity of Al in the P-type AlYInXGa1-X-YN layer changes regularly, the hole concentration of a P-type GaN structure can be improved, thereby improving the external quantum efficiency. Moreover, the lattice mismatch of the obtained P-type LED structure is small, thereby substantially reducing the contact resistance and improving the quality of a P-type GaN film. The energy band distribution of the P-type AlYInXGa1-X-YN layer is changed, the blocking effect of the valence band of the P-type AlYInXGa1-X-YN layer on hole injection is weakened, and the blocking effect of the valence band of the P-type AlYInXGa1-X-YN layer on electrons is not weakened. The structure also can improve the surface roughening to some extent, enables the brightness of an LED chip to be improved by 20%, and also enables the voltage to be reduced by 0.02-0.1V.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a structure and a preparation method of a P-type LED with gradually changing Al composition, belonging to the field of optoelectronic technology. Background technique [0002] In the early 1990s, the third-generation wide-bandgap semiconductor materials represented by nitrides made a historic breakthrough. Researchers successfully prepared blue-green and ultraviolet LEDs on gallium nitride materials, making LED lighting become possible. In 1971, the first gallium nitride LED die came out. In 1994, gallium nitride HEMTs appeared blue light GaN-based diodes with high electron mobility, and gallium nitride semiconductor materials developed very rapidly. [0003] Semiconductor light-emitting diodes have the advantages of small size, ruggedness, strong controllability of light-emitting bands, high luminous efficiency, low heat loss, low light decay, energy saving, and environmental protection. Communication and other fields have a...
