Problems solved by technology

[0005] If the doping concentration of silicon in the quantum barrier layer is low, it will not be able to reduce line defects and lower the voltage; if the doping concentration of silicon in the quantum barrier layer is high, it will affect the crystalline integrity of the quantum barrier material on the one hand. , reduce the crystal quality of the quantum barrier layer, on the other hand, silicon atoms will diffuse into the quantum well layer, reducing the crystal quality of the quantum well layer, the reduction of the quantum barrier layer and the crystal quality of the quantum barrier layer will affect the luminous efficiency and brightness of the LED, Therefore, it is difficult to reduce line defects and reduce voltage without affecting the luminous brightness

Abstract

The invention discloses a light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer and the preparation method thereof, and belongs to the semiconductor technology field. The epitaxial wafer comprises a substrate, a buffer layer, a non-doped gallium nitride layer, an N-type gallium nitride layer, a multiple quantum well layer, an electron blocking layer, and a P-type gallium nitride layer. The multiple quantum well layer comprises a plurality of quantum well layers and a plurality of quantum barrier layers, which are in an alternately-laminated arrangement. The quantum barrier layers comprise n+1 first sub-layers and n second sub-layers, which are in an alternately-laminated arrangement, and n is a positive integer. The first sub-layers are non-doped gallium nitride layers, and the second sub-layers are gallium nitride layers doped with silicon. The layers doped with the silicon and the non-doped layers are alternately grown, and current expansion is effectively enhanced, and a part of silicon of the gallium nitride layers doped with silicon can permeate into the non-doped gallium nitride layers, and therefore the light-emitting efficiency and the brightness of the LED are guaranteed, and line defects are reduced, and voltage is lowered.
