Abstract

The present invention discloses a LED epitaxy superlattice growth method. The method comprises in order: processing a substrate, growing a low-temperature buffer layer GaN, growing an un-doping GaN layer, growing an N-type GaN layer doping Si, growing an InAlN/Mg2N3 superlattice layer, growing a luminescent layer, growing a P-type AlGaN layer, growing a P-type GaN layer doping Mg, and performing cooling.
