AI Technical Summary
In AlGaInP red micro LED chips, the low thermal conductivity of traditional ITO materials leads to heat accumulation, causing increased chip junction temperature and reduced quantum well efficiency. At the same time, the ITO has low light transmittance in the red light band and requires an additional metal layer to introduce a light shielding effect. Diamond materials have become solutions due to high thermal conductivity and high light transmittance, but the problems of lattice mismatch and patterning preparation of ohmic contact layers have not been solved.
Conductive diamond materials are used to replace ITO, combined with epitaxial structure design and chip process optimization, and through epitaxial growth, silicon-based substrate patterning, diamond ohmic contact layer integration and rear-section process integration, high efficiency heat dissipation, low contact resistance and high light transmittance are achieved.
Significantly improve heat dissipation performance, reduce chip junction temperature, reduce thermally luminance attenuation, improve optical output power, reduce series resistance, and achieve large-scale production with existing processes and reduce costs.
