Abstract

The invention discloses a method for growing a high-antistatic LED (light-emitting diode) by adopting a metal organic compound vapor phase epitaxy technology, which is used to reduce the thickness of a depletion layer of the LED and increase the built-in capacitance of the LED. The method comprises the following steps of: firstly, treating a sapphire Al2O3 (alumina) substrate in a metal organic compound vapor phase epitaxy reaction chamber for 5 minutes; then three-dimensionally growing a GaN (gallium nitride) buffer layer and an n-GaN layer in a hydrogen atmosphere; growing an n-type insert layer with high electron concentration in a nitrogen atmosphere, and then growing a quantum well active area with various periods; growing a p-type insert layer with high hole concentration on the active area in the nitrogen atmosphere; and growing a p-GaN layer in the hydrogen atmosphere. The method has the advantages of relatively simple technological processes, good repeatability and low additional cost. The LED chip grown by the method has good optoelectronic performance and greatly improved reliability and stability.
