Abstract

The invention discloses a light-emitting diode device and a preparation method thereof, which are not only suitable for light-emitting diode devices with a vertical structure, but also for other series of light-emitting diode devices such as a horizontal structure and a high-voltage structure. The light emitting diode device includes a substrate and a plurality of mesa structures located on the upper surface of the substrate. The mesa structure includes a light emitting diode mesa located in a light emitting area and a cutting area mesa located in a cutting area. The light emitting diode mesaand the cutting area mesa are arranged at intervals, and the cutting area Including the cutting channel and the spacer area, the reflective metal layer, the sacrificial layer and the first insulatinglayer inside the cutting channel are distributed in a trapezoid shape. This trapezoidal distribution method effectively improves the continuous direction of the stress at the cutting channel and reduces the continuous accumulation of stress Therefore, the stress lines and the abnormalities of easy peeling and falling off of the semiconductor epitaxial layer are reduced or eliminated, and the appearance yield of the light emitting diode device can be effectively improved, and the product quality of the light emitting diode device can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the related technical field of light emitting diodes, in particular to a light emitting diode device and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Existing light-emitting diode devices are widely used in many fields due to their high luminous efficiency. Light-emitting diode devices generally include epitaxial substrates, semiconductor epitaxial layers, sacrificial layers, insulating layers, metal layers and substrates. However, the existing light-emitting diode devices have differences in thermal expansion coefficient between the semiconductor epitaxial layer and the metal layer and substrate, differences in the thickness of the semiconductor epitaxial layer and growth temperature, and differences in the thickness of the metal layer. These differences in the light-emitting diode devices will make the light-emitting diode device Stress of different sizes is generated in the structure; in addition, the semicond...
