Problems solved by technology

At this time, the direction of the polarization electric field in the quantum well in the active region is the same as that of the applied forward working voltage, which will cause the energy band of the quantum well to bend (quantum confinement Stark effect), and the electrons and holes will wave in space. Function separation, radiative efficiency drops; causing carrier leakage and the resulting efficiency drop effect

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of light emitting diodes, in particular to a reverse polarity vertical light emitting diode and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Since the 1990s, GaN-based light-emitting diodes (Light-emitting diodes, LEDs) have attracted widespread attention and achieved rapid development. GaN-based LEDs have significant advantages such as adjustable wavelength, light and flexible, low energy consumption, low working voltage, directional light emission, no pollution, long life, and fast response time. Curing, sterilization and disinfection have huge market value. [0003] GaN-based materials with a wurtzite structure lack central inversion symmetry in the c-axis direction, and the positive and negative charging centers of the unit cell do not coincide, and the material exhibits polarity under macroscopic conditions. Generally, the GaN-based material grown on the low-temperature buffer layer by ...
