A kind of Gan-based light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer and preparation method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a GaN-based light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the field of GaN-based light-emitting diodes. The method includes the steps of: providing a substrate; depositing a buffer layer on the substrate, the buffer layer comprising a plurality of stacked composite layers, each composite layer comprising an AlN sub-layer and an AlNO sub-layer, the oxygen content of the AlNO sub layer in each composite layer is gradually increased from a composite layer being closet to the substrate to a composite layer being farthest to the substrate; and depositing an undoped GaN layer, an N-doped GaN layer, a quantum well layer, an electron blocking layer, a P-type GaN layer and a P-type contact layer on the buffer layer in order.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of GaN-based light-emitting diodes, in particular to a GaN-based light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer and a preparation method thereof. Background technique

[0002] A GaN (gallium nitride)-based LED (Light Emitting Diode, light emitting diode) generally includes an epitaxial wafer and electrodes prepared on the epitaxial wafer. The epitaxial wafer usually includes: a substrate, and a GaN-based epitaxial layer grown on the substrate. The epitaxial layer includes a sequentially stacked buffer layer, a non-doped GaN layer, an N-type GaN layer, and an MQW (Multiple Quantum Well, multiple quantum well ) layer, electron blocking layer, P-type GaN layer and contact layer. When a current is injected into the GaN-based LED, the electrons in the N-type region such as the N-type GaN layer and the holes in the P-type region such as the P-type GaN layer enter the MQW active region and recombine to emit visible light.
