Abstract

The invention discloses an LED epitaxial growth method used for improving the internal quantum efficiency. The method sequentially comprises the steps of substrate processing, low-temperature buffer layer GaN growing, undoped GaN layer growing, Si-doped N-type GaN layer growing, AlGaN:Zn thin barrier layer growing, alternate InxGa(1-X)N/GaN light emitting layer growing, P-type AlGaN layer growing, Mg-doped P-type GaN layer growing, and cooling. The AlGaN:Zn thin barrier layer grows on one side, which is close to an N-type layer, of a light emitting layer to form an asymmetric well barrier structure to suppress the generation of electron leakage current. The injection efficiency of electrons and holes in a quantum well is improved. The internal quantum efficiency and the optical power of an LED are improved. The light emitting efficiency of the LED is enhanced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of LED epitaxial growth, in particular to an LED epitaxial growth method for improving internal quantum efficiency. Background technique [0002] As a lighting source, LED has the advantages of low energy consumption, long life, small size, high luminous efficiency, no pollution and rich colors compared with existing conventional lighting sources. At present, the scale of domestic production of LEDs is gradually expanding, and the market demand for LEDs and LED light effects are increasing day by day. [0003] Since the quantum efficiency of LEDs is still not high at present, the luminous efficiency of LEDs cannot be improved in a breakthrough, which has become the most concerned issue in the industry. [0004] At present, gallium nitride materials are mostly used in quantum wells in LEDs. Gallium nitride materials have a brazingite structure. Due to the self-polarization effect of the material it...
