Abstract

The invention relates to an epitaxial structure of a light emitting diode based on aluminum gallium nitride material and a manufacturing method thereof. The invention optimizes the light extraction structure for an ultraviolet light emitting diode based on tunneling effect. The UV light emitting diode using the n-p-n-type tunneling structure can effectively avoid the absorption of UV light by the traditional p-type gallium nitride in the pn structure of the UV diode, that is, the use of n-type aluminum gallium nitride (its aluminum Composition high enough that its band bandwidth is substantially transparent to UV light from the active layer) and a very thin layer of n-type or undoped gallium nitride (5 nm and below), and a layer of p-type nitrogen A carrier injection structure based on the tunneling effect of aluminum gallium sulfide (the aluminum composition of which is high enough that its energy band bandwidth is substantially transparent to ultraviolet light from the active layer). The ultraviolet light emitting diode with this structure needs to be combined with a new light extraction structure and technology to effectively extract the ultraviolet light absorbed in the traditional ultraviolet light emitting diode from the p surface.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a light-emitting diode epitaxial structure based on aluminum gallium nitride material and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Visible spectrum LEDs based on indium gallium nitride and aluminum indium gallium phosphorous material systems have matured and are currently in volume production. However, the development of UV LEDs is still hindered by many difficulties, including the fundamental material properties of aluminum gallium nitride alloys, especially alloys with high aluminum content. For example, deep UV LEDs emitting less than 300 nanometers have only up to 1% EQE compared to LEDs in the visible spectral range with external quantum efficiencies greater than 50% (EQE, the ratio of extracted photons to injected electron-hole pairs) . UV light-emitting diodes with emission wavelengths in the range of 230-350 nanometers are expected to...
