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 the lattice mismatch, the polarization field generated during the epitaxial growth process, and the material in the wafer Uneven growth and other problems make the epitaxial wafer warp more, and the product yield and luminous efficiency are lower

Abstract

The invention discloses an LED epitaxial growth method suitable for a 4-inch substrate, and relates to the technical field of LEDs. The LED epitaxial growth method comprises the steps of: processing asubstrate, growing a low-temperature buffer layer, growing an undoped GaN layer, growing a Si-doped N-type GaN layer, growing an N-type AlxGa1-xN layer, growing an active layer MOW, growing a P-typeAlGaN layer, growing a magnesium-doped P-type GaN layer, and performing cooling. The N-type AlxGa1-xN layer is introduced and the Si dosage concentration regular gradual change in the growth process is controlled to facilitate elimination of the stress accumulative effect of the 4-inch sapphire substrate on a GaN film and obviously increase a stress control window of the epitaxial film material soas to reduce the warping of the epitaxial wafer, facilitate improvement of the qualified rate of the GaN epitaxial wafer and improve the luminous efficiency and antistatic capability of the LED.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of LEDs, in particular to an LED epitaxial growth method suitable for a 4-inch substrate. Background technique [0002] LED (Light Emitting Diode, Light Emitting Diode) is a kind of solid-state lighting. Due to the advantages of LED, such as small size, low power consumption, long service life, high brightness, environmental protection, and durability, it is recognized by consumers, and the scale of domestic LED production is also increasing. Gradually expanding, 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 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 wafe...
