Problems solved by technology

After the LED size is upgraded to 4 inches, LEDs generally have technical problems such as large warping of epitaxial wafers and low luminous efficiency. Therefore, how to grow better epitaxial wafers has attracted increasing attention.
[0003] In the existing epitaxial growth technology, there is a common problem of large warping of the epitaxial wafer, especially when the epitaxial crystal is grown on a 4-inch sapphire substrate, due to problems such as lattice mismatch and uneven distribution of indium, the crystal quality of the epitaxial layer And the light output power is low, resulting in large warpage of the epitaxial wafer, low product yield and low luminous efficiency

Abstract

The invention discloses a 4-inch LED epitaxial growth method, and relates to the technical field of LEDs. The 4-inch LED epitaxial growth method comprises: processing a substrate, growing a low temperature buffer layer, growing an undoped GaN layer, growing a Si-doped N-type GaN layer, and growing a AlxGa1-xN / InyGa1-yN superlattice layer, growing an active layer MOW, growing a P-type AlGaN layer,growing a Mg-doped P-type GaN layer, and performing cooling. The AlxGa1-xN / InyGa1-yN superlattice layer is introduced, which is beneficial to eliminating a stress accumulation effect of a 4-inch sapphire substrate on a GaN film, and significantly increases the stress control window of an epitaxial film material, thereby reducing the warpage of the epitaxial wafer, is beneficial to improving the yield of GaN epitaxial wafers, and improves the luminous efficiency and antistatic ability of LEDs.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of LEDs, and more particularly, to a 4-inch LED epitaxial growth method. Background technique [0002] LED (Light Emitting Diode, light-emitting diode) is a kind of solid-state lighting. Because LED has the advantages of small size, low power consumption, long service life, high brightness, environmental protection, and durability, it is recognized by consumers. The scale of domestic production of LED is also It has gradually expanded, and the size of LEDs produced by most manufacturers has been upgraded from 2 inches to 4 inches. After the LED size is upgraded to 4 inches, LEDs generally have technical problems such as large warpage of epitaxial wafers and low luminous efficiency. Therefore, how to grow better epitaxial wafers has received increasing attention. [0003] The problem of large warpage of epitaxial wafers generally exists in the existing epitaxial growth technology, especially when epi...
