Problems solved by technology

However, due to the lattice and thermal mismatch, as well as the low mobility of Al atoms, the crystal quality of AlGaN materials is poor, especially as the material crystal quality becomes shorter, the composition of Al needs to increase, and the mobility of Al atoms is low. The difference in the mobility of Ga atoms increases, which will easily cause the appearance of high and low terrace crystal phases on the surface of the epitaxial layer, and it will not be possible to form a flat interface between layers of multiple quantum wells in the light-emitting active region, which is more likely to cause The composition and thickness of each layer in the multiple quantum wells are not uniform, so it is easy to increase the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the electroluminescent spectrum (EL spectrum) of the LED, which in turn reduces the probability of composite light emission in the active region of the multiple quantum wells. and insufficient purity of luminescence

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor light emitting diodes, in particular to a structure of a deep ultraviolet light emitting diode and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] LED (light-emitting diode) is a light-emitting device made of solid-state semiconductors. In recent years, it has generally replaced traditional incandescent lamps due to its safety, small size, environmental protection, high efficiency, and low energy consumption. In addition, LED light sources in the ultraviolet band are also widely used in industrial ink curing, and are gradually used in many fields such as medical treatment, food processing, and bacterial disinfecting. Generally, ultraviolet light can be divided into UVA (Ultraviolet A, long-wave ultraviolet light), UVB (Ultraviolet B, medium-wave ultraviolet light) and UVC (Ultraviolet C, short-wave ultraviolet light) according to wavelength, and the corresponding wavelength range...
