Problems solved by technology

[0002] The active layer of the traditional UV-LED structure generally adopts 3-5 periodic symmetric quantum wells. The quantum well structure of the traditional UV-LED is single and completely symmetrical, and the obtained spectrum is narrow
At present, ultraviolet LEDs have the problem of narrow luminescence peaks; due to the lack of deep ultraviolet phosphors, it is impossible to realize the wide-spectrum luminescence of ultraviolet LEDs like the combination of blue LEDs and phosphors to form white light. It is urgent to develop a wide-spectrum ultraviolet LED based on a single chip.

Abstract

The invention discloses a UV-LED based on an asymmetric quantum well structure. The UV-LED structurally comprises from bottom to top: a substrate layer; an n-AlGaN layer which is grown on the substrate layer; a symmetric AlGaN quantum well layer which is grown on the n-type AlGaN layer; an asymmetric AlGaN quantum well layer which is grown on the symmetric AlGaN quantum well layer; a p-AlGaN layer which is grown on the asymmetric AlGaN quantum well layer; a p-GaN layer which is grown on the p-AlGaN layer; and a p-type electrode and an n-type electrode. The invention provides an AlGaN-based wide-spectrum ultraviolet LED (UV-LED) based on an asymmetric multi-quantum well structure, a wide luminescent spectrum is obtained through the combination of a plurality of quantum well structures with different Al components and different thicknesses, and under the bias of 6V forward voltage, the full width at half maximum of the luminescent spectrum is 17nm and is close to two times of that of a traditional UV-LED.
