Abstract

The invention discloses a nitride semiconductor epitaxial structure, which comprises a substrate, a nucleating layer, a transition layer, a composite buffer layer, a top gallium nitride layer and a coating layer are sequentially arranged on the substrate, the transition layer is an AlxGaN layer, the composite buffer layer comprises a first composite buffer layer, the first composite buffer layer comprises a plurality of Aly1GaN layers and a plurality of GaN layers which are mutually overlapped, y1 is greater than x, and y2 is greater than x. The Aly1GaN layers in the first composite buffer layer are the same in thickness, and the first GaN layers are the same in thickness. According to the method, the epitaxial layer is grown through superlattices, warping can be effectively controlled, the quality of gallium nitride is improved, defects are reduced, the product yield is increased, in the growth method of the superlattice composite buffer structure, different aluminum content growth modes are added, warping can be further effectively improved, and the product yield is increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a semiconductor structure, in particular to a nitride semiconductor epitaxial structure. Background technique [0002] In the nitride semiconductor structure, since silicon has the advantages of higher thermal conductivity and lower cost than sapphire substrates, large-scale nitride semiconductors based on silicon substrates have become the most important choice in nitride power devices. important components. However, taking a gallium nitride (GaN) semiconductor layer as an example, the lattice difference between the gallium nitride semiconductor layer and the silicon substrate is 17%, and the difference in thermal expansion coefficient therebetween is 54%. The above difference not only causes film cracking due to excessive thermal stress during cooling, but also causes internal stress in the gallium nitride semiconductor layer during the epitaxial growth process, thereby causing film cracking and forming defects. Therefore, ...
