Abstract

The invention discloses a growth method for a light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer and an epitaxial wafer, belonging to the technical field of a semiconductor. The growth method comprises the following steps of: sequentially growing a low-temperature buffer layer, a non-doped GaN layer and an N-type layer on a substrate; alternatively growing a first InGaN pit layer and a first GaN barrier layer on the N-type layer to form a first active layer; alternatively growing a second InGaN pit layer and a second GaN barrier layer on the first active layer to form a second active layer; and sequentially growing an electron blocking layer and a P-type layer on the second active layer, wherein the growth pressure of the second active layer is lower than the growth pressure of the first active layer, the growth speed of the second active layer is lower than the growth speed of the first active layer, the thickness of the second active layer is smaller than the thickness of the first active layer, and the growth pressure, the growth speed and the thickness of the second InGaN pit layer are gradually reduced, slowed and decreased along the growth direction of the light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer. The epitaxial wafer is high in luminous efficiency.
