Abstract

The invention discloses a monolithic integration method for a high-electron-mobility transistor and a vertical structure light-emitting diode. After epitaxial growth of a full-structure LED through MOCVD, an HEMT heterojunction structure is continuously grown in situ, so that an integrated epitaxial chip is obtained. Secondly, a drain electrode of an HEMT is connected to a P electrode of the LED through a metal interconnection mode after selective etching, and then a substrate is transferred to realize the vertical LED structure. Finally, a source electrode structure and a gate electrode structure of the HEMT are led out through a hole etching method, an N electrode structure of the LED is prepared, and finally, monolithic integration of the HEMT and the vertical structure LED is achieved.Through an integrated unit, voltage control of a high-power vertical structure LED can be achieved, and the advantages of high frequency and high power of a GaN power device can be fully played, andminiaturized, low-cost and high-efficiency intelligent lighting, intelligent display and visible light communication systems in the integrated circuit can be realized.

Background technique [0002] Compared with traditional incandescent and fluorescent lighting, InGaN / GaN multi-quantum well light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have the advantages of higher luminous efficiency, longer service life, energy saving and environmental protection. This series of excellent properties makes LEDs have great application prospects in intelligent lighting and intelligent display systems. In addition, silicon-based vertical structure LEDs have more uniform current distribution, higher power density and better heat dissipation than traditional sapphire-based lateral structure LEDs, and have become the mainstream design of high-power, high-performance LEDs. However, the chip-level LEDs prepared by different processes are all current control uni...
