Problems solved by technology

As the wavelength of quaternary AlGaInP materials shortens, the Al composition of the active layer increases continuously, and the combination of Al atoms with oxygen or carbon atoms leads to serious lattice defects in the material, and the luminous efficiency decreases; on the other hand, the energy band of yellow-green light Due to the increase in the proportion of Al components, the energy gap gradually changes from direct energy gap to indirect energy gap, and the internal quantum efficiency further drops significantly, resulting in low luminous efficiency of LED products in the yellow-green light band; at the same time, the production of At the same time, due to the poor epitaxial deposition efficiency at the edge of the carrier disk, the edge performance of the epitaxial wa
