Problems solved by technology

The inclination of this lattice orientation deteriorates the lattice quality after lateral epitaxy, which is not conducive to obtaining large-area, low dislocation density, and uniformly distributed high-quality GaN-based materials
In addition, in the second maskless cantilever epitaxial growth process, before the lateral epitaxy is merged, there is still accumulation of epitaxial materials in the trench area, which wastes raw materials, which is not conducive to reducing production costs and saving resources.

Abstract

The invention method relates to wet corrosion technology used to obtain sapphire substrate with particular graph structure, then bridging epitaxial growth technology is used to deposit GaN bridging epitaxial layer and required component structure layer.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing GaN-based materials with low dislocation density and high quality. Background technique [0002] The wide bandgap semiconductor GaN material has a wide range of applications in the fields of optoelectronics and microelectronics due to its unique physical properties. However, there is currently a lack of suitable epitaxial substrates that match the lattice constants of GaN, and its epitaxial films can only be grown on substrates that have a large mismatch with them, such as sapphire, silicon, and silicon carbide. The lattice constants and thermal expansion coefficients of these substrates are quite different from those of GaN, leading to threading dislocation densities as high as 10 in GaN-based growth layers. 8 -10 10 cm -2 . The existence of these dislocations limits the further improvement of the performance of optoelectronic devices, especially for ultraviolet light-emitting diodes, which have so f...
