Problems solved by technology

On the one hand, when the bandgap width of the n-plane window layer is required to be wide enough, it will cause difficulties in epitaxial growth; on the other hand, the window layer of indium tin oxide in the form of a cylinder is in direct contact with the n-type semiconductor layer, requiring the window layer The depth of the hole is equal to the thickness of the window layer, which is difficult to control in the chip manufacturing process
If the opening is too deep, the active layer of the MQW will be damaged, resulting in reduced luminous efficiency and leakage, or even dead light; if the opening is too shallow, the window layer will affect the electrical contact between the indium tin oxide and the n-type semiconductor layer

Abstract

The invention provides a reversed-polarity AlGaInP-based LED coated with ITO on the surface and a manufacturing method thereof, belonging to the technical field of semiconductors. Since an ITO extended current extension layer is used to replace an n-type AlGaInP current extension layer, the current extension uniformity of an LED chip can be improved, the problem of light absorption of the n-type AlGaInP current extension layer can be avoided and therefore the light emitting efficiency is increased. Thus, both the service life and the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the reversed-polarity AlGaInP-based LED can be enhanced. The reversed-polarity AlGaInP-based LED coated with ITO on the surface and the manufacturing method thereof provided by the invention have the advantages of simple process and great convenience in production operation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a reverse polarity AlGaInP-based LED whose surface is covered with an ITO current spreading layer and a manufacturing method thereof, belonging to the technical field of semiconductors. Background technique [0002] The AlGaInP-based material lattice-matched with the GaAs substrate is a direct bandgap semiconductor. By adjusting the ratio of Al and Ga, the forbidden band width can be varied between 1.9eV and 2.3eV. The wavelength range of AlGaInP-based LEDs can cover 550nm to 650nm, and has broad application prospects in the fields of RGB three-color display screens, traffic lights, and automotive lights. [0003] Conventional AlGaInP-based LED emits light from the p-plane, and its epitaxial layer structure is usually: GaAs buffer layer, DBR mirror layer, n-type confinement layer, MQW multi-quantum well active layer, p-type confinement layer, p-type GaP window layer. Since the GaAs substrate absorbs light, it is necessary to ...
