Problems solved by technology

However, the current red light epitaxial structure is prone to current crowding effect due to poor current lateral expansion, which not only restricts the utilization rate of the light emitting area but also causes the local temperature of the chip to rise, accelerating the aging speed of the chip; moreover, the electron flow directly flows into the chip without expansion. The active layer is also not conducive to the antistatic performance of red LEDs and the use of devices, especially for LED chips with a mini structure, due to the small size of the product, the requirements for current expansion capability and antistatic performance are higher
