Abstract

The invention relates to an LED structure. The LED structure comprises a substrate layer, a GaN buffer layer, a non-doped GaN layer, a Si-doped GaN layer, a P-type AlGaN layer and a P-type GaN layer. The LED structure is characterized in that a multi-quantum well active region containing InGaN / GaN superlattice barrier layers is located between the Si-doped GaN layer and the P-type AlGaN layer. According to the LED structure of the invention, the InGaN / GaN superlattice barrier layers are adopted to replace traditional GaN barrier layers, and therefore, lattice mismatch between barrier layers and potential well layers can be decreased, and the crystal quality of the MQW can be can effectively changed, and the overlap probability of electron-hole wave function can be improved, and the spontaneous emission rate and internal quantum efficiency of the multi-quantum well can be improved, and finally, the luminous efficiency of a GaN-based LED device can be improved.
