Problems solved by technology

Judging from the current realization of the Ge buffer layer on the Si substrate, due to the large lattice mismatch between the Si substrate and the Ge epitaxial layer, the Ge buffer layer prepared by the conventional process has a high dislocation density, which is not conducive to the subsequent high-quality GeSn Alloy Preparation

Abstract

The invention relates to a horizontal structure-based LED and a preparation method therefor. The preparation method comprises the steps of selecting an SOI substrate; enabling a Ge seed crystal layer, a Ge main body layer and an oxide layer to be grown on the SOI substrate by adopting a CVD process in sequence; performing crystallization on the Ge seed crystal layer and the Ge main body layer by adopting an LRC process to form a crystallized Ge epitaxial layer; etching the oxide layer by adopting a dry etching process; enabling a GeSn layer to be grown on the crystallized Ge epitaxial layer; preparing an N type Ge region and a P type Ge region; and manufacturing a metal contact electrode to complete the preparation of the horizontal structure-based LED. By adoption of a laser re-crystallization process, the Ge epitaxial layer with low dislocation density is prepared on the SOI substrate; and then the high-equality direct band gap GeSn layer is prepared, and next, the p<+><->Ge / direct band gap GeSn / n<+><->Ge horizontal structure-based LED is realized and the preparation method is implemented.
