Problems solved by technology

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a chip structure of LED and its preparation method, by inserting an insulating layer between the P-type semiconductor material and the electrode, thereby reducing the contact between the P-type semiconductor material and the metal. The length of the depletion region increases the hole concentration, increases the hole tunneling probability, reduces the contact resistance of the P-type semiconductor material / P-electrode, and improves the internal quantum efficiency and electro-optical conversion efficiency, thereby overcoming the existing technology. The doping efficiency of P-type semiconductor materials in LED devices is not high, and the defect of hole injection efficiency is low

Abstract

The invention provides an LED chip structure and a preparation method thereof, and relates to a semiconductor device which has at least one potential jump barrier or surface potential barrier and is used specially for light emission. The LED chip structure comprises, from top to bottom, a substrate, a buffer layer, an N-type semiconductor material, a multi-quantum well layer, a P-type semiconductor material, an insulating layer, a current expanding layer, a P-type ohmic electrode and an N-type ohmic electrode in order.

technical field [0001] The technical solution of the invention relates to a semiconductor device specially suitable for light emission with at least one potential jump barrier or surface barrier, specifically a LED chip structure and its preparation method. Background technique [0002] Based on nitride semiconductor LED technology, it plays an important role in slowing down global warming and improving the living environment. In the past 30 years, nitride semiconductor LED technology has achieved unprecedented development and has important application value in many fields, such as Display, lighting, communication, biomedicine and anti-counterfeiting detection and other technical fields. [0003] In order to further increase the application space of LEDs, an improved internal quantum efficiency is required. Studies have found that compared with electrons in LED devices, the mobility of holes is lower and the effective mass is larger, so the injection efficiency of holes is ...
