Abstract

The invention is applicable to the field of a semiconductor photoelectric technology, and provides a preparation method and a structure for a GaN-based laser. The preparation method comprises the steps of depositing a dielectric film on a p-GaN layer on the surface of a first epitaxial layer; forming a dual-ridge window region in the dielectric film through a photoetching manner or an etching manner, wherein the dual-ridge window region penetrates to the p-GaN layer; performing p-GaN epitaxial growth on the p-GaN layer within the scope of the dual-ridge window region; alternatively depositing materials with high refractive index and low refractive index on the epitaxial growth p-GaN surface to form an upper limiting layer of the dielectric film; and depositing metal on the upper limiting layer of the dielectric film, wherein a p electrode is formed by the deposited metal. The upper limiting layer of the laser is formed by the dielectric film, so that the limiting factors of the laser can be effectively increased, and the internal loss is lowered; and in addition, the current is injected through the p-GaN, so that the laser resistance can be effectively reduced, the working voltage of the laser can be lowered, and the performance of the laser can be improved.
