Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a light emitting diode, in particular to a method for manufacturing a light emitting diode using a commercial light emitting diode epitaxial chip grown by a liquid epitaxy method. Background technique
[0002] At present, the aluminum gallium indium phosphide (AlGaInP) light emitting diode epitaxial layer grown by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) has a wavelength range of up to 645 nm. As for the epitaxial layers of light-emitting diodes with wavelengths greater than 645 nm (mainly infrared and red light-emitting diodes of aluminum gallium arsenide), liquid epitaxy (LPE) is mainly used.
[0003] Commercial aluminum gallium arsenide (AlGaAs) epitaxy chips grown by liquid epitaxy not only have relatively high output power, but also have relatively low cost. However, the gallium arsenide substrate will absorb light, so that the light-emitting diode made of commer...
