Problems solved by technology

[0003] One of the main problems is that In x Ga 1-x Reduced radiative recombination efficiency due to stress field induced by lattice mismatch in N / GaN multiple quantum wells
In x Ga 1-x The stress field caused by lattice mismatch in N / GaN multi-quantum well MQWs makes the energy bands in MQWs tilt, causing the wave functions of electrons and holes to separate in space (quantum confinement Stark effect), thereby reducing the probability of radiative recombination. lead to low brightness
At the same time, these stress fields will cause the LED chip to be easily broken down due to electrostatic action, that is, ESD deterioration

Abstract

The invention discloses an LED epitaxial structure with a 3D layer and capable of improving brightness, relating to the LED epitaxial structure of the light emitting diode. The LED epitaxial structure with a 3D layer and is capable of improving brightness successively comprises, from the bottom to the top, a sapphire substrate, an AlN buffering layer, a u-GaN layer, an n-AlGaN layer, an n-GaN layer, a multi-quantum well layer, an electronic barrier layer, a p-GaN layer and a metal contact layer. The LED epitaxial structure is characterized in that a high-temperature high-voltage n-doped 3D layer is arranged between the AlN buffering layer and the u-GaN layer, and SiH4 is introduced during a growth process of the 3D layer to perform n doping. Compared with the prior, the LED epitaxial structure with the 3D layer can effectively reduce dislocation density, improves crystalline quality and improves brightness of the light emitting diode.

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of epitaxy of light-emitting diodes, in particular to an LED epitaxy structure with a 3D layer that can improve brightness. Background technique [0002] Semiconductor LEDs have the advantages of small size, low power consumption, long service life, environmental protection, and durability, and are widely used in lighting, display screens, and backlight sources. High-power light-emitting diodes have been made into solid-state lighting sources and put on the market. They are a new type of light source that will replace traditional lighting in the future. Compared with traditional semiconductor materials such as Si, GaAs, and InP, GaN materials have the characteristics of wide bandgap, high breakdown field strength, high electron saturation and velocity, and are therefore known as the representative of the third-generation semiconductor materials. The output power density of GaN HEMT is more than an order of ...
