Abstract

The invention discloses an LED epitaxial growth method capable of improving light-emitting efficiency. The LED epitaxial growth method includes treating a substrate, a ZnGaN layer, an Mg-Si co-doped GaN layer, an AlN layer, a growth Si-doped N-type GaN layer, a growth InxGa(1-x)N / GaN light-emitting layer, a growth P-type AlGaN layer and a growth magnesium-doped P-type GaN layer prior to cooling, wherein x refers to 0.20-0.25. The LED epitaxial growth method has the advantages that epitaxial layer hole concentration and hole mobility are both increased, and radiation efficiency of a light-emitting region is improved, so that the LED light-emitting efficiency is improved, and power-type LED light effect is particularly enhanced remarkably under bulk-current injection.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of LED epitaxial growth, and more specifically, to an LED epitaxial growth method for improving luminous efficiency. Background technique [0002] As a lighting source, LED has the advantages of energy saving, long life, small size, high luminous efficiency, no pollution, and rich colors compared with existing traditional lighting sources. At present, the scale of domestic production of LEDs is gradually expanding, and the demand for LEDs and LED light effects in the market is increasing day by day. [0003] At present, the quantum efficiency of LED is still not high, the hole concentration in the LED epitaxial layer is low, the hole mobility is low, and the DROOP effect appears under high current, that is, the LED luminous efficiency decreases under high current. For example, if the epitaxial wafer is prepared by the traditional LED epitaxial growth process, the DROOP effect is serious under high current, ...
