Abstract

The invention provides an LED epitaxial wafer, an epitaxial growth method and an LED chip, and the epitaxial growth method comprises the steps: controlling the growth temperature to be gradually reduced from a high temperature to a low temperature during the growth of a P-type contact layer, doping Mg, controlling the Mg introduction concentration to be higher than the Mg concentration of a P-type GaN layer, and enabling the Mg introduction concentration to be gradually increased along with the reduction of the growth temperature, the Mg-doped GaN layer with high crystal quality can be obtained by growing the Mg-doped GaN layer at a high temperature, meanwhile, Mg is easily doped into the GaN layer at a high temperature, but the Mg doping efficiency is greatly reduced at a low temperature, the problem of low doping concentration of Mg at a low temperature can be improved by increasing the concentration of introduced Mg at a low temperature, and due to the fact that Mg is gradually merged in the cooling process from the high temperature to the low temperature, the doping efficiency is greatly improved. The lattice mismatch of the Mg-doped GaN layer is effectively reduced, so that the contact resistance of the P-type contact layer is reduced, and the crystal quality is ensured.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of LEDs, in particular to an LED epitaxial wafer, an epitaxial growth method and an LED chip. Background technique [0002] It is well known that GaN-based compound semiconductor materials are typical third-generation wide-bandgap semiconductor materials. GaN-based semiconductors can change the band gap from 0.7eV to 6.2eV by adjusting the composition of group III atoms (In, Al, Ga), so GaN-based materials have been widely used in various optoelectronic devices. [0003] The working voltage of GaN-based light-emitting diodes includes theoretical calculation voltage, contact resistance and bulk resistance of materials. It can be seen that by reducing the contact resistance of the LED, the LED voltage can be reduced. Usually, GaN-based light-emitting diodes are connected to metal. When the doping concentration of the semiconductor contact layer is very high, the carriers can pass through the potential barrier...
