Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a light emitting diode and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] A light-emitting diode (light-emitting diode, referred to as LED), is a light-emitting device that releases energy by recombining electrons and holes to emit light, and can efficiently convert electrical energy into light energy. With the development of science and technology, light-emitting diodes are now widely used in technical fields such as displays, lighting, and medical devices. [0003] However, in the light-emitting diodes in the prior art, there are lattice differences between the quantum well and the quantum barrier in the light-emitting layer, which often cause energy band bending, and electrons tend to overflow to the P-type region; on the other hand, the quantum well is hollow. The hole concentration is low, and the hole mobility is low, which will lead to the technical pr...
