Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of light-emitting diodes, and particularly to a method for preparing a light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer with improved crystal quality. Background Art
[0002] A light-emitting diode is a very widely used light-emitting device, commonly used in traffic signal lights, internal and external automotive lights, urban lighting, medical detection or purification, etc. A light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer is the basic structure for preparing a light-emitting diode. A light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer generally includes a substrate and an AlN layer, an n-type layer, a light-emitting layer, and a p-type layer sequentially stacked on the substrate.
[0003] The AlN layer can play a transitional role and alleviate the lattice mismatch problem between the substrate and materials such as the n-type layer to be grown. And in order to improve the growth quality of the AlN layer itself, an annealing treatment is performed on the AlN layer after the AlN layer is grown. However, during the annealing process of the AlN layer, nitrogen atoms on the surface of the AlN layer are prone to desorption problems, resulting in a relatively rough surface of the AlN layer, affecting the quality of the n-type layer grown on the surface of the AlN layer, and ultimately the crystal quality of the obtained light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer is still not ideal enough. Summary of the Invention

It reduces the possible cracking on the surface of the basic AlN layer to improve the crystal quality of the epitaxial material grown on the basic AlN layer. Since a graphene layer is also deposited on the basic AlN layer, the relatively dense graphene layer with a large chemical property difference from the basic AlN layer covers the surface of the basic AlN layer, which can inhibit the nitrogen atom desorption process that may occur on the surface of the basic AlN layer during annealing, improving the internal crystal quality and surface flatness of the basic AlN layer after annealing. The graphene layer can also prevent the formation of impurities such as oxygen, carbon, and aluminum - containing oxides on the surface of the basic AlN layer, and a basic AlN layer with a smooth surface and fewer impurities can be obtained. After annealing, peeling off the graphene layer on the surface of the basic AlN layer can obtain a basic AlN layer with good quality, and an n - type layer, a light - emitting layer, and a p - type layer are sequentially grown on the basic AlN layer with good quality, effectively improving the quality of the finally obtained light - emitting diode epitaxial wafer.

[0031] Figure 1 is a flowchart of a method for preparing a light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer to improve crystal quality provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, as Figure 1As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for fabricating a light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer with improved crystal quality. The method for fabricating a light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer with improved crystal quality includes:
[0032] S101: Provide a substrate.
[0033] S102: Deposit a base AlN layer on the substrate.
[0034] S103: Deposit a graphene layer on the base AlN layer.
[0035] S104: Anneal the base AlN layer.
[0036] S105: Strip the graphene layer on the surface of the base AlN layer.
[0037] S106: Sequentially grow an n-type layer, a light-emitting layer, and a p-type layer on the base AlN layer.
[0038] After growing the base AlN layer on the substrate and depositing the graphene layer on the surface of the base AlN layer, the base AlN layer is annealed. Annealing can reduce the stress in the base AlN layer, reduce the defects caused by the stress in the base AlN layer, and improve the crystal quality of the obtained base AlN layer. It can reduce the possible cracking on the surface of the base AlN layer to improve the crystal quality of the epitaxial material grown on the base AlN layer. Since there is also a graphene layer deposited on the base AlN layer, the relatively dense graphene layer with a large chemical property difference from the base AlN layer covers the surface of the base AlN layer, which can inhibit the nitrogen atom desorption process that may occur on the surface of the base AlN layer during the annealing process, and improve the internal crystal quality and surface flatness of the base AlN layer after annealing. The graphene layer can also prevent the formation of impurities such as oxygen, carbon, and aluminum-containing oxides on the surface of the base AlN layer, and a base AlN layer with a smooth surface and fewer impurities can be obtained. After annealing, stripping the graphene layer on the surface of the base AlN layer can obtain a base AlN layer with better quality, and an n-type layer, a light-emitting layer, and a p-type layer are sequentially grown on the base AlN layer with better quality, effectively improving the quality of the finally obtained light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer.
[0039] Exemplarily, in step S103, the graphene layer can be grown by a chemical vapor deposition device. A relatively dense and high-quality graphene layer can be obtained.
[0040] Optionally, in step S103, the growth temperature and growth pressure of the graphene layer can be 1000 - 1200 °C and 0.1 - 1 atm.
[0041] When the growth temperature and growth pressure of the graphene layer are respectively within the above ranges, a relatively dense graphene layer can be obtained.
[0042] Exemplarily, in step S103, the growth rate of the graphene layer can be 10 to 200 nm / s. The density of the graphene layer can be further increased to more effectively suppress the possible desorption on the surface of the underlying AlN layer and improve the surface quality of the underlying AlN layer.
[0043] Optionally, the thickness of the graphene layer is 50 to 500 nm.
[0044] When the thickness of the graphene layer is within the above range, it can effectively isolate the underlying AlN layer from impurities, and play a good role in covering and protecting the surface of the underlying AlN layer, improving the quality of the finally obtained light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer.
[0045] In one implementation provided by the present disclosure, the thickness of the graphene layer can be 200 nm, and the present disclosure does not limit this.
[0046] Exemplarily, in step S105, the graphene layer on the surface of the underlying AlN layer is laser-stripped.
[0047] The laser-stripping method can ensure the stable stripping of the graphene layer and ensure the surface quality of the obtained underlying AlN layer, so as to ensure the quality of epitaxial materials such as the n-type layer grown on the surface of the underlying AlN layer.
[0048] Figure 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2 The light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer provided therein is prepared by using the light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer preparation method shown in Figure 1 As shown in, it can be known that the light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer may include a substrate 1 and a underlying AlN layer 2, an n-type layer 3, a light-emitting layer 4, and a p-type layer 5 stacked on the substrate 1 in sequence. Figure 2 It should be noted that the n-type layer 3, the light-emitting layer 4, and the p-type layer 5 can be prepared by using gallium nitride materials, aluminum gallium nitride materials, or indium gallium phosphide, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0051] In one implementation provided by the present disclosure, Figure 2The obtained basic AlN layer obtained as above has no cracks under optical microscope detection; has an atomically flat surface under atomic force microscope detection; the half-width of the basic AlN layer in the (002) direction measured by an X-ray diffraction detector is 150 arcsec, and the half-width in the (102) direction is 320 arcsec. Among them, (002) and (102) represent two different crystal plane directions of the crystal; the two half-width values are related to the dislocation density. The larger the value, the more dislocations, and the worse the crystal quality. Usually, the (002) half-width value represents screw dislocations, while the (102) half-width value represents edge dislocations.
