Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of light emitting diodes (English Light Emitting Diode, referred to as LED), in particular to a light emitting diode epitaxial wafer with a novel quantum barrier and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] LED is known as the most promising green lighting source in the 21st century because of its advantages such as high brightness, low heat, long life, non-toxicity, and recyclability. As the most important category of LEDs, GaN-based LEDs are widely used in many fields. The existing GaN-based LED epitaxial wafer mainly includes a substrate, a buffer layer, an N-type GaN layer, a multi-quantum well active layer, and a P-type GaN carrier layer. [0003] During the working process of GaN-based LEDs, the electrons generated in the N-type GaN layer and the holes generated in the P-type GaN carrier layer migrate to the multi-quantum well active layer under the action of an electric field, and are formed...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] As the working current of GaN-based LEDs increases, the current density increases accordingly. In this high current density scenario, the electrons injected into the MQW active layer also increase, resulting in the failure of some electrons to interact with th
