[0005] The invention optimizes the manufacturing method, firstly manufactures a P-face pattern on the surface of a GaP window layer and etches through the GaP window layer, so that the current can be isolated from being horizontally extended over a long distance, so that the current is effectively injected into the light-emitting area, and the absorption of light by the GaP window layer is also reduced, thereby improving the luminous efficiency; then, an Au filling barrier layer is inserted into a dielectric film layer located in a projection area of a cutting path, so that the mirror layer can be effectively protected during dry etching and laser cutting, and the reliability is good; then, AuZn is evaporated by direct thermal evaporation, which not only has a simple manufacturing process, a short time, and is easy to form an alloy, but also forms an arc surface after evaporation, thereby increasing the contact area between the mirror layer and the mirror layer, and having better stability; finally, a dispersant colloid is spin-coated on the roughened surface, and thermal curing is performed to form uniformly distributed spherical islands on the surface, and the surface presents a pyramid velvet surface, so that not only the roughening area is increased, but also the light output angle can be increased, thereby further improving the luminous efficiency.
[0006] Furthermore, in the above technical solution S1, the GaP window layer is a GaP layer with a thickness of 0.5 μm-1.0 μm; the P-type semiconductor layer is a P-type waveguide layer, a P-type confinement layer, and a P-type transition layer from bottom to top in the growth direction of the epitaxial wafer; the P-type transition layer is made of P-Al 40 GaInP to P-Al 20 GaInP is sequentially transitioned to the GaP window layer; the material of the roughening layer of the N-type semiconductor layer is composed of N-Al 60 GaInP to N-Al 20 GaInP transitions toward the GaP window layer in turn, with a thickness of 3μm-4μm. In this technical solution, both the P-type transition layer and the roughening layer of the N-type semiconductor layer use a gradient aluminum component, which can ensure lattice gradient and improve the purpose of structural adaptation.
[0007] Furthermore, in the above technical solution S2, the method for making the patterned P-face graphics is: use ICP to etch away the exposed GaP window layer, and etch down to the P-type restriction layer to stop, and then use photoresist removal liquid to remove the photoresist on the surface; the ratio of the etched area to the retained area is 3:7. Since the material of the P-type transition layer has a refractive index difference, in this technical solution, the etching of the P-type restriction layer stops after the P-face graphics, which can not only reduce the absorption of the light emitted by the light-emitting layer by the P-type restriction layer, but also reduce its absorption of the light reflected from the mirror to the front side, further improving the luminous efficiency. The photoresist removal liquid is a degumming liquid, and any existing degumming liquid that can remove photoresist can be used.
[0008] Furthermore, in the above technical solution S3, the thickness of the dielectric film layer deposited for the first time is 1500±100 angstroms; in S5, the thickness of the dielectric film deposited for the second time is 3500±200 angstroms. In this technical solution, the dielectric film layer is deposited twice, firstly, the concave position after the P-surface pattern is made can be filled to ensure the flatness of the subsequent dielectric film, and secondly, an Au filling barrier layer can be inserted into the dielectric film layer located in the projection area of the cutting path to improve reliability.
[0009] Furthermore, in the above technical solution S4, the size of the Au-filled barrier layer is larger than the chip cutting road size. In this technical solution, the size of the Au-filled barrier layer is larger than the chip cutting road size, which can effectively protect the mirror layer during dry etching and laser cutting.
[0010] Furthermore, in the above technical solution S7, the material of the ohmic contact layer is AuZn, the thickness is 2000±10 angstroms, and the total thermal evaporation time is 10min-15min. In this technical solution, the ohmic contact layer alloy is made by direct thermal evaporation, which not only has a simpler process, shorter time and higher efficiency, but also increases the contact area with the mirror layer and has better stability.
[0011] Furthermore, in the above technical solution S8, the material of the mirror layer is Ag, with a thickness of 3000±100 angstroms; the materials of the transition barrier layer are Ti / Pt / Ti / Pt / Au in sequence, with a total thickness of 10000±500 angstroms; the thickness of the In bonding layer is 3±0.5μm; in S9, the thickness of the Au bonding layer is 2±0.2μm.
[0012] Furthermore, in the above technical solution S10, the bonding temperature is 200±5°C, the pressure is 2000±10kgf, and the chemical etching solution used is a mixed solution of ammonia water and hydrogen peroxide in any volume ratio, preferably 15:1. In this technical solution, bonding is performed in a low temperature and low pressure manner, which can reduce the impact on the metal mirror material and the metal layer and ensure the luminous efficiency.
[0013] Furthermore, in the above technical solution S13, the dispersant colloid is a nanoscale resin; the thermal curing method is first heating at 120°C for 300s, and then maintaining at 200°C for 30min for curing; the roughening liquid is a mixed solution of phosphoric acid, glacial acetic acid, hydrogen peroxide and water in any volume ratio.
[0014] The present invention also provides a red light LED chip manufactured by the above manufacturing method, wherein the red light LED chip comprises, from bottom to top, a back electrode, a Si substrate, an Au bonding layer, an In bonding layer, a transition barrier layer, a mirror layer, a dielectric film layer, an ohmic contact layer, an Au filling barrier layer, a GaP window layer, a P-type transition layer, a P-type restriction layer, a P-type waveguide layer, a light-emitting layer, an N-type semiconductor layer, a roughened spherical island, a passivation layer, and a front electrode; the Au filling barrier layer is located in the projection area of the chip cutting path and is covered by the dielectric film layer; the surface of the ohmic contact layer convex to the mirror layer is an arc surface; and the surface of the roughened spherical island is evenly distributed with a pyramid velvet surface.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The present invention optimizes the manufacturing method. By manufacturing a P-face pattern on the surface of the GaP window layer and etching through the GaP window layer and the P-type transition layer, not only can the lateral long-distance expansion of the current be isolated, and the current is effectively injected into the light-emitting area, but also the absorption of the light emitted by the light-emitting layer and the light reflected by the mirror surface to the front side by the GaP window layer and the P-type transition layer is reduced, thereby greatly improving the light-emitting efficiency. By inserting an Au-filled barrier layer into the dielectric film layer located in the projection area of the cutting path, the mirror layer can be effectively protected in the process of dry etching and laser cutting, thereby improving the reliability. By adopting direct thermal The AuZn alloy is evaporated by evaporation, which is not only simple in process and time, but also easy to form an alloy. At the same time, it can form an arc surface after evaporation, which increases its contact area with the mirror layer and has better stability. By spin-coating a dispersant colloid on the surface of the roughened layer and thermally curing it, evenly distributed mask cylinders or spheres are formed on the surface, and then dry etching and roughening liquid are used to form spherical islands with a pyramid velvet surface on the surface. This not only increases the roughened area, but also increases the light output angle, further improving the luminous efficiency. The resulting red light LED chip has high luminous efficiency, good reliability, and stable overall device performance. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
