Abstract

The invention provides a GaN-based LED epitaxial wafer, an epitaxial growth method and an LED chip. The GaN-based LED epitaxial wafer includes a first low-temperature P-type GaN sub-layer, a second low-temperature P-type GaN sub-layer and a third low-temperature P-type GaN sub-layer stacked in sequence. The GaN sub-layer, the first low-temperature P-type GaN sub-layer and the second low-temperature P-type GaN sub-layer are all AlInGaN layers heavily doped with Mg, and the third low-temperature P-type GaN sub-layer is a GaN layer, wherein the first low-temperature P-type GaN sub-layer is The concentration of the Al composition in the sublayer is greater than the concentration of the Al composition in the second low temperature P-type GaN sublayer, and the third low temperature P-type GaN sublayer passes through the atmosphere by NH 3 / N 2 / H 2 Fade to NH 3 / N 2 , at the same time, the temperature is gradually increased to grow. The invention can effectively solve the problem that in the existing GaN-based LED epitaxial structure, the low-temperature P-type GaN layer is difficult to grow to the bottom along the V-type pit, which leads to the decrease of the LED luminous efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of LEDs, in particular to a GaN-based LED epitaxial wafer, an epitaxial growth method and an LED chip. Background technique [0002] Light Emitting Diode (LED) is a semiconductor electronic component that can emit light. Due to its small size, high brightness and low energy consumption, it has attracted the attention of more and more researchers. Among them, GaN-based The LED has the advantages of high density, low energy consumption, long life, short response time, no radiation, etc., and is widely used in lighting and display fields. [0003] Among them, there is a phenomenon of quantum efficiency decline in GaN-based LEDs, that is, when the current density is higher, the luminous efficiency of the LED decreases instead. One of the main reasons for this phenomenon is caused by insufficient injection of holes, so how to The issue of improving hole injection efficiency deserves attention. [0004] Traditio...
