Abstract

The invention, which belongs to the technical field of the semiconductors, discloses an epitaxial wafer of a light-emitting diode and a preparation method thereof. The epitaxial wafer comprises a substrate, a buffer layer, an un-doped gallium nitride layer, an N type gallium nitride layer, a multi-quantum-well layer, a hole supply layer and a P type contact layer, wherein the buffer layer, the un-doped gallium nitride layer, the N type gallium nitride layer, the multi-quantum-well layer, the hole supply layer and the P type contact layer are laminated on the substrate successively. The hole supply layer includes at least one sub layer including a P type doped indium gallium nitride layer and an aluminum nitride layer stacked on the P type doped indium gallium nitride layer. According to the invention, because the P type doped indium gallium nitride layer is used for providing a hole and the aluminum nitride layer is used for replacing an electron barrier layer to suppress over flowingof electrons in at the hole supply layer, the distance between the hole supply layer and the multi-quantum-well layer is reduced, the electrons provided by the hole supply layer are injected into themulti-quantum-well layer, the number of holes of the multi-quantum-well layer is increased, so that the light emitting efficiency of the light-emitting diode is improved.
