DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the present invention is further described in detail with specific embodiments below.
[0020] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a flip-chip LED chip with an anti-ejection pin, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, it includes a substrate 1 and an epitaxial layer 2 stacked in sequence; a groove is provided on the epitaxial layer 2, an N-type electrode 6 is provided in the groove, a current blocking layer 3 and a transparent conductive layer 4 are also provided on the epitaxial layer 2, the transparent conductive layer 4 covers the current blocking layer 3 and exposes the groove, a P-type electrode 5, a passivation layer 7 and a pad 8 are provided on the transparent conductive layer 4, the passivation layer 7 covers the P-type electrode 5 and the groove, the pad 8 includes a P-type pad 81 and an N-type pad 82, the P-type pad 81 and the N-type pad 82 penetrate the passivation layer 7 and are electrically connected to the corresponding P-type electrode 5 and N-type electrode 6, and the anti-top-pin flip-chip LED chip also includes an anti-top-pin layer 9 in contact with the passivation layer 7.
[0021] In the present invention, the anti-ejection layer 9 in contact with the passivation layer 7 is provided on the flip-chip LED chip to play a buffering and isolating role, maintain the structural integrity of the flip-chip LED chip, and reduce the possibility of leakage caused by the ejection pin breaking the chip structure during the packaging and solidification of the flip-chip LED chip. In addition, the anti-ejection layer 9 can cooperate with the passivation layer 7 to reduce the risk of chemical erosion and ensure the stability of the electrical performance of the flip-chip LED chip.
[0022] Specifically, the epitaxial layer 2 includes an N-type semiconductor layer 21, a multi-quantum well layer 22, and a P-type semiconductor layer 23 stacked in sequence, and the groove extends from the P-type semiconductor layer 23 to the N-type semiconductor layer 21, so that the N-type electrode 6 is disposed on the N-type semiconductor layer 21. The current blocking layer 3 and the transparent conductive layer 4 are disposed on the P-type semiconductor layer 23, and the transparent conductive layer 4 covers the current blocking layer 3 and exposes the groove.
[0023] It can be understood that the N-type semiconductor layer 21 can be an N-type GaN layer, an N-type AlGaN layer, or an N-type GaAs layer, but is not limited thereto; the multi-quantum well layer 22 can be an InGaN / GaN multi-quantum well layer, an InGaN / AlGaN multi-quantum well layer, or an AlGaN / AlGaN multi-quantum well layer, but is not limited thereto; the P-type semiconductor layer 23 can be a P-type GaN layer, a P-type AlGaN layer, or a P-type GaAs layer, but is not limited thereto; the current blocking layer 3 includes but is not limited to a SiO2 layer; and the transparent conductive layer 4 includes but is not limited to an ITO layer.
[0024] Optionally, the material of the passivation layer 7 is at least one of SiO2 and Ti3O5; the thickness of the passivation layer 7 is 1μm~6μm; more preferably, the passivation layer 7 is a DBR structure, and the passivation layer 7 is a multilayer structure obtained by repeatedly stacking SiO2 layers and Ti3O5 layers, which can not only play a role in insulation protection, but also serve as a high reflector to allow more light to pass through the chip surface. In some specific and preferred embodiments, the thickness of each SiO2 layer is 1 / 4 optical thickness~1 / 3 optical thickness, and the thickness of each Ti3O5 layer is 1 / 4 optical thickness~1 / 3 optical thickness.
[0025] Wherein, the P-type electrode 5 and the N-type electrode 6 are both metal electrodes, which can be a single-layer structure or a multi-layer structure. Preferably, the raw material composition of the P-type electrode 5 and the N-type electrode 6 is the same and both are multi-layer structures. Specifically, the P-type electrode 5 and the N-type electrode 6 each include an ohmic contact layer, a reflective layer, a coating layer, a conductive layer, an etching barrier layer and an adhesion layer stacked in sequence. A low-resistance ohmic contact is formed between the ohmic contact layer and the semiconductor layer to ensure that the current can be efficiently conducted between the semiconductor and the electrode. The reflective layer arranged above it can not only reflect light back to the light-emitting surface, but also prevent the external environment from corroding and oxidizing the ohmic contact layer to a certain extent, thereby extending the service life of the ohmic contact layer and maintaining its good ohmic contact performance. The conductive layer is the key layer in the electrode responsible for transmitting current, ensuring that the current can be efficiently transmitted in the electrode, while the coating layer set between the reflective layer and the conductive layer plays a transition and protective role, preventing the metal in the reflective layer from directly contacting the metal in the conductive layer and then diffusing or reacting with each other, thereby protecting the performance of the reflective layer and the conductive layer so that they can work independently. Finally, an etching barrier layer and an adhesion layer are set on the conductive layer to protect the conductive layer and enhance the adhesion of the protective layer on the electrode.
[0026] Furthermore, the ohmic contact layer includes at least one of a Cr layer, a Ni layer, and a Ti layer, which can effectively reduce the contact resistance between the electrode and the semiconductor, reduce the scattering and energy loss of carriers at the interface, and has good contact performance with the transparent conductive layer 4 and the N-type semiconductor layer 21. The reflective layer includes at least one of an Al layer and an Ag layer, which not only has good reflective performance, but also has excellent electrical and thermal conductivity. The coating layer includes at least two of a Ti layer, a Ni layer, and a Pt layer, which can protect the internal reflective layer, prevent the metal atoms in the reflective layer from migrating under the action of an electric field or other factors, and avoid electrical anomalies, short circuits, and other problems caused by metal migration, thereby improving the stability and service life of the electrode and the entire device; more preferably, the coating layer is a periodic structure with a period number of 2 to 5. While enhancing the mechanical properties of the coating layer, it can realize the regulation of functions such as reflection, absorption or scattering of light of a specific wavelength, and further optimize the optical performance of the chip. The conductive layer includes at least one of an Au layer and a Cu layer, has a low resistivity, can effectively transmit current, reduce energy loss during the conduction process, and ensure that the electrode can still stably transmit current under high current working conditions. The etching barrier layer includes a Pt layer; and the adhesion layer includes a Ti layer.
[0027] In some embodiments, the thickness of the ohmic contact layer is 5Å~100Å; the thickness of the reflective layer is 100nm~300nm; the thickness of the coating layer is 100nm~1000nm; the thickness of the conductive layer is 200nm~1500nm; the thickness of the etch stop layer is 200nm~600nm; and the thickness of the adhesion layer is 30Å~150Å.
[0028] Furthermore, the anti-thrust layer 9 is disposed between the P-type pad 81 and the N-type pad 82, and the anti-thrust layer 9 is composed of a plurality of metal layers 91 arranged at a preset gap, such as Figure 4~Figure 6 As shown. The metal layer 91 is used as the anti-ejection layer 9, and the ductility of the metal is used to play a buffering role to prevent the ejection pin from directly breaking the transparent conductive layer 4 and the epitaxial layer 2. The metal layer 91 is arranged in a gap arrangement. After the passivation layer 7 is broken by the ejection pin, the solder paste of the N-type pad 82 and the P-type pad 81 overflows and contacts the anti-ejection layer 9, it can also ensure that the N-type pad 82 and the P-type pad 81 remain in an open circuit state, which will not cause a short circuit in the chip. At the same time, the heat can be evenly distributed to reduce the occurrence of local overheating.
[0029] The length and width of the anti-ejection layer 9 need to be determined according to the size of the ejection pins used and the possible contact area of the ejection pins on the flip-chip LED chip. Figure 4 The gap between adjacent metal layers 91 is L1, and the width of the metal layer 91 is L2, satisfying L2=0.35L1~10L1, so that the anti-ejection pin layer 9 has a good protection effect on the chip, preventing the ejection pin from contacting the sensitive area of the chip during operation, and can effectively avoid short circuits between adjacent metal layers 91, optimize the light emission path, and improve the luminous uniformity and luminous efficiency of the flip chip. If L2 is less than 0.35L1, the metal layer 91 is relatively small and discontinuous in the entire anti-push pin layer 9, and the shading of the anti-push pin layer 9 is reduced. However, the structure of the anti-push pin layer 9 is relatively loose, and the metal layer 91 is prone to displacement or deformation, which affects the protective effect of the anti-push pin layer 9 and even causes leakage. It will also increase the opacity of the anti-push pin layer 9, and increase the probability of light scattering and absorption in the anti-push pin layer 9, thereby reducing the light extraction efficiency and optical uniformity of the chip. If L2 is greater than 10L1, the anti-push pin effect is good, but the width of the metal layer 91 is relatively wide, which will cause a certain degree of shading, thereby reducing the luminous efficiency. At the same time, the stresses between adjacent metal layers 91 may affect each other. During long-term use, the metal layer 91 is prone to fatigue, cracks and other problems. It may also cause heat to accumulate locally and cannot be effectively dissipated to the surrounding environment, which also causes the problem of chip overheating.
[0030] In some specific embodiments, L1=3μm~15μm, exemplarily 3μm, 5μm, 7μm, 9μm, 11μm, 13μm, 15μm, but not limited thereto; L2=5μm~30μm, exemplarily 5μm, 10μm, 15μm, 20μm, 25μm, 30μm, but not limited thereto.
[0031] For further information, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the distance between the anti-thrust layer 9 and the P-type pad 81 is a1, and the distance between the anti-thrust layer 9 and the N-type pad 82 is a2, satisfying a1=a2=1.5L2~33L2. If a1=a2<1.5L2, the distance between the anti-pickup layer 9 and the pad 8 is short, the area of the anti-pickup layer 9 is large, and the anti-pickup effect is good, but the shading area is increased. When the chip is subjected to external force, the stress may be concentrated locally, which may easily lead to mechanical damage such as cracks and fractures in the anti-pickup layer 9 or the pad 8, and the anti-pickup layer 9 will have a strong reflection and absorption effect on the light near the pad 8, thereby reducing the luminous flux emitted from the front of the chip; if a1=a2>33L2, the distance between the anti-pickup layer 9 and the pad 8 is long, the area of the anti-pickup layer 9 is small, the shading area is reduced, but the anti-pickup effect is reduced, and relative displacement or deformation is likely to occur between the anti-pickup layer 9 and the pad 8, resulting in leakage, and the heat may be unevenly distributed in the anti-pickup layer 9 during the conduction process, which is also prone to cause local overheating.
[0032] In some specific embodiments, a1=a2=20μm~100μm, exemplified by 20μm, 30μm, 40μm, 50μm, 60μm, 70μm, 80μm, 90μm, 100μm, but not limited thereto; b≥50μm.
[0033] Furthermore, the width of the anti-ejection layer 9 is b, and the width of the P-type pad 81 or the N-type pad 82 is c, satisfying b≤c. At this time, the light shielding area of the anti-ejection layer 9 is small, which can play a better reflective role, resulting in improved luminous efficiency, but correspondingly, the anti-ejection effect will be weakened, and leakage will occur. In some specific embodiments, 50μm≤b≤c.
[0034] Specifically, the metal layer 91 in the anti-throwing layer 9 can be a single-layer structure or a multi-layer structure, and the raw material composition of the anti-throwing layer 9 can be the same as the raw material composition of the P-type electrode 5 and the N-type electrode 6, or it can be different from the raw material composition of the P-type electrode 5 and the N-type electrode 6.
[0035] In some specific and preferred embodiments, Figure 5As shown, the anti-ejection layer 9 is arranged on the transparent conductive layer 4, and the passivation layer 7 covers the anti-ejection layer 9. At this time, the anti-ejection layer 9 can directly protect the transparent conductive layer 4 below to avoid ejection damage, and the passivation layer 7 is covered thereon, which can help it further block the erosion of the internal structure by external water vapor and impurities. If the anti-ejection layer 9 is in direct contact with the outside world, it may suffer from wear and corrosion and fail in long-term use, and the transparent conductive layer 4 will be exposed to the harsh environment quickly, reducing the life of the flip-chip LED chip. Moreover, the formed layer structure is simple, which simplifies the production difficulty to a certain extent.
[0036] More preferably, the raw material composition of the anti-top-pin layer 9 is the same as the raw material composition of the P-type electrode 5 and the N-type electrode 6, that is, the anti-top-pin layer 9 is a multilayer structure, including an ohmic contact layer, a reflective layer, a coating layer, a conductive layer, an etching barrier layer, and an adhesion layer stacked in sequence, wherein the ohmic contact layer includes at least one of a Cr layer, a Ni layer, and a Ti layer; the reflective layer includes at least one of an Al layer and an Ag layer; the coating layer includes at least two of a Ti layer, a Ni layer, and a Pt layer, more preferably, the coating layer is a periodic structure with a period number of 2 to 5; the conductive layer includes at least one of an Au layer and a Cu layer; the etching barrier layer includes a Pt layer; and the adhesion layer includes a Ti layer. At this time, the passivation layer 7 is in direct contact with the ejector pin, and the anti-ejector layer 9 has good adhesion on the transparent conductive layer 4. The overall structure and performance are consistent. When facing the ejector pin operation, it can more effectively resist the pressure of the ejector pin, reduce the risk of being injured or punctured, and protect the circuit structure and functional integrity inside the chip. Combined with the metal ductility in the anti-ejector layer 9, the flip-chip LED chip will not break under the action of the ejector pin, thereby protecting the layer structure below the anti-ejector layer 9 and avoiding leakage. It can be understood that the anti-ejector layer 9 and the P-type electrode 5 and N-type electrode 6 can be completed in the same process step.
[0037] Optionally, the thickness of the ohmic contact layer is 5Å~100Å; the thickness of the reflective layer is 100nm~300nm; the thickness of the coating layer is 100nm~1000nm; the thickness of the conductive layer is 200nm~1500nm; the thickness of the etching stop layer is 200nm~600nm; and the thickness of the adhesion layer is 30Å~150Å.
[0038] In other specific and preferred embodiments, Figure 6As shown, the anti-ejection layer 9 is arranged on the passivation layer 7, and a protective layer 10 is also arranged on the passivation layer 7, and the protective layer 10 covers the anti-ejection layer 9, and the P-type pad 81 and the N-type pad 82 penetrate the protective layer 10 and the passivation layer 7 and are electrically connected to the corresponding P-type electrode 5 and the N-type electrode 6. At this time, the passivation layer 7 provides basic protection for the transparent conductive layer 4 to block chemical corrosion, while the anti-ejection layer 9 specifically prevents physical damage caused by the ejection operation, and the outermost protective layer 10 further isolates the external mechanical friction and chemical pollution. The multi-layer protection synergy can provide a more lasting and comprehensive protection effect, reducing the probability of chip failure due to various damages. In addition, the anti-push layer 9 is located on the passivation layer 7 and will not cause shading problems, so the luminous efficiency of the flip-chip LED chip will be correspondingly improved. However, compared with the anti-push layer 9 being arranged on the transparent conductive layer 4, the passivation layer 7 is relatively easy to be damaged, resulting in damage to the transparent conductive layer 4 and the epitaxial layer 2, thereby causing the leakage rate of the flip-chip LED chip to increase.
[0039] Optionally, the raw material composition of the anti-ejection layer 9 is different from that of the P-type electrode 5 and the N-type electrode 6, and the anti-ejection layer 9 includes a contact layer, a buffer layer and an adhesion layer stacked in sequence. At this time, the adhesion layer contacts the ejection pin through the protective layer 10, and can use its good adhesion properties to ensure close fit with the ejection pin, and use its own elasticity and adhesion to perform preliminary buffering, protect the buffer layer and the contact layer, and prevent delamination and peeling between the layers. The subsequent force is further dispersed through the buffer layer and transmitted to the contact layer, effectively reducing the external force on the passivation layer 7, and having a good protective effect on the flip-chip LED chip.
[0040] Among them, the contact layer includes at least one of a Cr layer, a Ni layer, and a Ti layer, has strong adhesion on the passivation layer 7, and exhibits a certain mechanical strength, thereby protecting the passivation layer 7; the buffer layer includes at least one of an Au layer, an Al layer, and a Cu layer, which can effectively absorb and disperse pressure; the adhesion layer includes a Ti layer, which enhances the adhesion between the protective layer 10 and the anti-throwing layer 9, and also has good corrosion resistance, which can prevent external chemicals from corroding the anti-throwing layer 9 to a certain extent, thereby ensuring the long-term stability of the anti-throwing layer 9.
