Problems solved by technology

[0005] Since the multi-quantum well layer is composed of InGaN quantum well layers and GaN quantum barrier layers alternately arranged in multiple periods, the InGaN quantum well layers and GaN quantum barrier layers will generate stress due to lattice mismatch. The period of the layer continues to increase, and the stress between the quantum well layer and the quantum barrier layer continues to accumulate. Some linear dislocations in the GaN epitaxial layer will develop and amplify during the quantum well growth process, forming V-shaped defects, thereby reducing the electron density. The efficiency of radiative recombination luminescence with holes in the multi-quantum well layer
At the same time, the InGaN quantum well layer and the GaN quantum barrier layer will produce a piezoelectric polarization effect due to lattice mismatch, resulting in the separation of the wave functions of electrons and holes in space, thereby reducing the luminous efficiency of LEDs.

Abstract

The invention discloses a light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer and a manufacturing method thereof, belonging to the technical field of semiconductors. The multi-quantum well layer of the light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer is a multi-period superlattice structure, and each superlattice structure includes an InGaN quantum well layer, a transition layer and a GaN quantum barrier layer stacked on the InGaN quantum well layer in sequence, and the transition layer It includes a first sublayer and a second sublayer arranged on the first sublayer, the first sublayer is an AlInN layer, and the second sublayer is an AlGaN layer. The lattice of AlInN material and InGaN material is relatively matched, the lattice of AlGaN material and GaN material is relatively matched, and the lattice of AlInN material and GaN material is also relatively matched, so the InGaN quantum can be reduced by setting the first sublayer and the second sublayer. The lattice mismatch between the well layer and the GaN quantum barrier layer reduces the generation of defects and improves the radiative recombination luminous efficiency of electrons and holes in the multi-quantum well layer.
