Problems solved by technology

[0003] Long-term aging under high temperature and high current will lead to excessively high junction temperature of the LED chip. Due to the slight lattice mismatch between the epitaxial structure layers, a large number of structural defects such as dislocations will be formed on the interface between the layers.
At higher temperatures, these defects will rapidly proliferate and multiply until they invade the light-emitting area and form a large number of non-radiative recombination centers, which seriously reduce the injection efficiency and luminous efficiency of the light-emitting diode.
