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 luminous 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] At present, LEDs have a "droop phenomenon" in which the higher the current density is, the lower the luminous efficiency of the LED chip is, so the energy loss will increase, which will affect the energy-saving effect of the LED. Suppressing this attenuation phenomenon and improving the luminous efficiency of LEDs have become the most concerned issues in the industry. [0004] Therefore, in view o...
