[0033] The present application is described below based on embodiments, but the present application is not limited to these embodiments. In the detailed description of the present application below, some specific details are described in detail. It is possible for those skilled in the art to fully understand the present application without the description of these details. In order to avoid confusing the essence of the present application, known methods, processes, flows, components and circuits are not described in detail.

[0034] In addition, persons of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that the drawings provided herein are for illustration purposes and are not necessarily drawn to scale.

[0035] For ease of explanation, spatially relative terms such as "inside", "outside", "below", "below", "lower", "above", "upper", etc. are used herein to describe the relationship of one element or feature illustrated in the figures to another element or feature. It will be understood that spatially relative terms may be intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation other than the orientation depicted in the figures. For example, if the device in the figure is turned over, an element described as being "below" or "below" other elements or features will then be positioned as being "above" the other elements or features. Thus, the example term "below" can include both the orientations of above and below. The device may be oriented in other ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially relative descriptors used herein should be interpreted accordingly.

[0036] Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, the words "include", "comprising" and similar words throughout the application should be interpreted as including rather than exclusive or exhaustive; that is, the meaning is "including but not limited to".

[0037] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. In addition, in the description of this application, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more.

[0038] In the embodiment of the utility model, the semiconductor device is described by taking LED (Light Emitting Diode) as an example, so the semiconductor device includes at least one PN junction that can emit light, that is, the semiconductor device includes at least one LED structure. It is easy to understand that the semiconductor device can also be other devices that are prone to electrostatic discharge, and the PN junctions in the device may not emit light, that is, the semiconductor device may not include an LED structure.

[0039] Since LEDs are very sensitive to static electricity, ESD protection is an important indicator of LEDs. When the static voltage between electrodes is too high, instantaneous discharge occurs between the positive and negative electrodes, and the temperature inside the LED is higher than the junction temperature. The high temperature causes local melting into small holes, which causes LED leakage, damage to the light-emitting structure, short circuit, etc., causing permanent damage to the LED.

[0040] Figure 1 1 is a cross-sectional view of a semiconductor device of a vertical structure provided in the first embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 In the cross-sectional view shown, the semiconductor device includes: a substrate 100, a first structure 200, a second structure 400, a first electrode 500 and a second electrode 600. The first structure 200 and the second structure 400 are stacked on the substrate 100 from bottom to top. The first structure 200 includes a first semiconductor layer 210, a first active layer 220 and a second semiconductor layer 230 stacked from bottom to top, and the second structure 400 includes a third semiconductor layer 410, a second active layer 420 and a fourth semiconductor layer 430 stacked from bottom to top. The first electrode 500 is electrically connected to the first semiconductor layer 210 and the third semiconductor layer 410, respectively, and the second electrode 600 is electrically connected to the second semiconductor layer 230 and the fourth semiconductor layer 430, respectively, so that the first structure 200 is in reverse parallel with the second structure 400.

[0041] Specifically, the first semiconductor layer 210 includes but is not limited to a first ohmic contact layer 211, a first window layer 212, and a first confinement layer 213 stacked sequentially from bottom to top, and the first electrode 500 is electrically connected to the first ohmic contact layer 211. The second semiconductor layer 220 includes but is not limited to a second confinement layer 231 and a second ohmic contact layer 232 stacked sequentially from bottom to top, and the second electrode 600 is electrically connected to the second ohmic contact layer 232. The third semiconductor layer 410 includes but is not limited to a third ohmic contact layer 411 and a third confinement layer 412 stacked sequentially from bottom to top, and the first electrode 500 is electrically connected to the third ohmic contact layer 411. The fourth semiconductor layer 430 includes but is not limited to a fourth confinement layer 431, a fourth window layer 432, and a fourth ohmic contact layer 433 stacked sequentially from bottom to top, and the second electrode 600 is electrically connected to the fourth ohmic contact layer 433.

[0042] In this embodiment, the first structure 200 is a light emitting diode (LED) epitaxial structure, and the second structure 400 is an electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection structure. In the first structure 200, the first semiconductor layer 210 has a first doping type, and the second semiconductor layer 230 has a second doping type. Among them, the first doping type is one of N-type and P-type doping, and the second doping type is one of P-type and N-type doping, and the first doping type and the second doping type are different. In this embodiment, the first doping type is N-type doping, which is to dope Si, Ge, Sn and other N-type dopants in the semiconductor layer; the second doping type is P-type doping, which is to dope C, Mg, Zn, Ca, Sr, Ba and other P-type dopants in the substrate. The first active layer 220 is a multi-quantum well. In the second structure 400, the third semiconductor layer 410 has the second doping type, and the fourth semiconductor layer 430 has the first doping type. Among them, the first doping type is one of N-type and P-type doping, the second doping type is one of P-type and N-type doping, and the first doping type and the second doping type are different. In this embodiment, the first doping type is N-type doping, which is to dope Si, Ge, Sn and other N-type dopants in the substrate; the second doping type is P-type doping, which is to dope C, Mg, Zn, Ca, Sr, Ba and other P-type dopants in the substrate. The second active layer 420 is also a multi-quantum well. When the semiconductor device is driven by current or voltage, and the second electrode 600 side is a forward voltage, the LED epitaxial structure is forward-conducted, the ESD protection structure is not conductive, and the electrons and holes recombine in the first active layer 220 and radiate energy outward in the form of photons to emit light, and the radiation wavelength is, for example, 190nm-960nm. The semiconductor device emits light from the front side (that is, the side away from the substrate 100).

[0043] When the semiconductor device is driven by current or voltage and the first electrode 500 has a forward voltage, the LED epitaxial structure is not turned on, the ESD protection structure is turned on and protects the LED epitaxial structure, and the semiconductor device emits light or does not emit light.

[0044] In addition, the first active layer 220 of the first structure 200 as an LED epitaxial structure can also be a single quantum well, a double quantum well, a single quantum wire or an organic material, so that the first structure 200 constitutes an LED structure. The second active layer 420 in the second structure 400 as an ESD protection structure can be a structure such as an avalanche region, a Schottky junction, etc., so that the second structure 400 constitutes a structure such as an avalanche diode, a Schottky diode, etc. When one side of the first electrode 500 is a forward voltage, the second structure 400 is turned on and consumes electrical energy without emitting light. In addition, the second active layer 420 may not be provided in the second structure 400, so that the second structure 400 is an ordinary diode that consumes electrical energy when turned on.

[0045] In some embodiments, the first structure 200 is an ESD protection structure, and the second structure 400 is an LED epitaxial structure. In this embodiment, the first active region 200 in the first structure 200 as an ESD protection structure can be a multi-quantum well, an avalanche region, a Schottky junction, etc., so that the first structure 200 is a light-emitting diode, an avalanche diode, a Schottky diode, etc. The first active region 200 may not be provided in the first structure 200, so that the first structure 200 is a common diode. The second active layer 420 of the second structure 400 as an LED epitaxial structure can be a multi-quantum well, a single quantum well, a double quantum well, a single quantum wire or an organic material, so that the second structure 400 constitutes a light-emitting diode, and the radiation wavelength of the light-emitting diode is 190nm-960nm.

[0046] Preferably, when the semiconductor device is a face-up structure, the first structure 200 is an ESD protection structure, and the second structure 400 farther from the substrate 100 is an LED epitaxial structure. Thus, when the LED epitaxial structure emits light, the ESD protection structure will not block the light emitted from the LED epitaxial structure from a direction away from the substrate 100, and the light emission effect of the semiconductor device is better. When the semiconductor device is a flip-chip structure, the first structure 200 closer to the substrate 100 is an LED epitaxial structure, and the second structure 400 is an ESD protection structure. Thus, when the LED epitaxial structure emits light, the ESD protection structure will not block the light emitted from the LED epitaxial structure from one side of the substrate 100, and the light emission effect of the semiconductor device is better.

[0047] like Figure 1As shown, the semiconductor device includes a first step. The first step has a second step surface 920 as a lower step surface, and the second step surface 920 is the surface of the first semiconductor layer 210 (first ohmic contact layer 211); the first step has a first step surface 910 as an upper step surface, and the first step surface 910 is the surface of the third semiconductor layer 410 (third ohmic contact layer 411). The bottom of the first electrode 500 is arranged on the second step surface 920, and the top part of the first electrode 500 covers the first step surface 910, so that the first electrode 500 is electrically connected to the first semiconductor layer 210 (first ohmic contact layer 211) and the third semiconductor layer 410 (third ohmic contact layer 411) respectively. A first dielectric layer 801 is also arranged on the first step, and the bottom of the first dielectric layer 801 is arranged on the second step surface 920, and the first dielectric layer 801 covers the side wall of the first step. That is, the first dielectric layer 801 covers the third ohmic contact layer 411, the bonding layer 300, the second ohmic contact layer 232, the second limiting layer 231, the first active layer 220, the first limiting layer 213, the first window layer 212 and the first ohmic contact layer 211, so that the first electrode 500 does not contact the above-mentioned structure of the side wall of the first step. The semiconductor device also includes a third dielectric layer 803, the bottom of the third dielectric layer 803 is arranged on the substrate 100, and the side wall of the third dielectric layer 803 covers the side of the first electrode 500 away from the first structure 200, so as to protect the first electrode 500. That is, the first dielectric layer 801 is located on the side of the first electrode 500 close to the first step, and the third dielectric layer 803 is located on the side of the first electrode 500 away from the first step.

[0048] The semiconductor device further includes a second step. The second step has a fourth step surface 940 as a lower step surface, and the fourth step surface 940 is the surface of the second semiconductor layer 230 (the second ohmic contact layer 232); the second step has a third step surface 930 as an upper step surface, and the third step surface 930 is the surface of the fourth semiconductor layer 430 (the fourth ohmic contact layer 433). The bottom of the second electrode 600 is arranged on the fourth step surface 940, and the top portion of the second electrode 600 covers the third step surface 930, so that the second electrode 600 is electrically connected to the second semiconductor layer 230 (the second ohmic contact layer 232) and the fourth semiconductor layer 430 (the fourth ohmic contact layer 433), respectively. A second dielectric layer 802 is also arranged on the second step, and the second dielectric layer 802 covers the sidewall of the second step. That is, the second dielectric layer 802 covers the fourth window layer 432, the fourth limiting layer 431, the second active layer 420, the third limiting layer 412, the third ohmic contact layer 411, the bonding layer 300 and the second ohmic contact layer 232, so that the second electrode 600 does not contact the above-mentioned structure of the side wall of the second step. The semiconductor device also includes a fourth dielectric layer 804, the bottom of the fourth dielectric layer 804 is arranged on the substrate 100, and the side wall of the fourth dielectric layer 804 covers the side of the second electrode 600 away from the second structure 400, so as to protect the second electrode 600. That is, the second dielectric layer 802 is located on the side of the second electrode 600 close to the second step, and the fourth dielectric layer 804 is located on the side of the second electrode 600 away from the second step.

[0049] The semiconductor device further includes a third step. The third step has the first step surface 910 as a lower step surface, and the third step has the third step surface 930 as an upper step surface. A fifth dielectric layer 805 is disposed on the third step, and the fifth dielectric layer 805 covers the sidewall of the third step. That is, the fifth dielectric layer 805 covers the fourth ohmic contact layer 433, the fourth window layer 432, the fourth restriction layer 431, the second active layer 420, the third restriction layer 412, and the third ohmic contact layer 411. The fifth dielectric layer 805 also covers the first step surface 910 and the third step surface 930 that are not covered by the first electrode 500 and the second electrode 600, thereby protecting the second structure 400.

[0050] In this embodiment, the first electrode 500 and the second electrode 600 are both provided with an extension strip (not shown in the figure), and the extension strip is arranged near the second active layer 420 and / or the first active layer 220. Here, the extension strip arranged next to the first active layer 220 is taken as an example for explanation. The extension strip can extend the electric field to the first active layer 220 region. When the first structure 200 is forward biased, electrons diffuse from the first confinement layer 213 to the second confinement layer 231, and holes diffuse from the second confinement layer 231 to the first confinement layer 213. Due to the effect of the electric field brought by the extension strip, electrons and holes are forced to move to the first active layer 220, thereby reducing the carrier recombination near the first active layer 220 and improving the conduction performance of the first structure 200. The materials of the first electrode 500 and the second electrode 600 may include one or more of Cr, Ti, Pt, Au, Al, Ge, and Be.

[0051] In some embodiments, a first through hole connected to the first step surface 910 and a second through hole connected to the second step surface 920, and a first electrode plate connecting the first through hole and the second through hole may be provided. The first through hole, the second through hole, and the first electrode plate constitute the first electrode 500; a third through hole connected to the fourth step surface 940 and a second electrode plate connecting the third step surface 930 and the third through hole are provided. The third through hole and the second electrode plate constitute the second electrode 600.

[0052] In the present embodiment, the semiconductor device further includes a bonding layer 300 disposed between the first structure 200 and the second structure 400. The first structure 200 and the second structure 400 in the present embodiment are respectively formed on two different substrates, and the first structure 200 and the second structure 400 are bonded and connected by the bonding layer 300, and then one of the substrates is removed, and the remaining substrate is used as the substrate 100, forming the first structure 200 and the second structure 400 stacked on the substrate 100 from bottom to top. The bonding layer 300 can be oxide bonding, metal bonding, organic adhesive bonding, etc. Specifically, the bonding layer 300 can be composed of one or more layers of an aluminum oxide layer, a silicon oxide layer, an indium oxide layer, a tin oxide layer, a silver layer, a gold layer, an organic adhesive layer, etc.

[0053] Figure 2 2 is a cross-sectional view of a semiconductor device with a flip-chip structure provided by the second embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2As shown, the semiconductor device with flip-chip structure has the same substrate 100, first structure 200, bonding layer 300, second structure 400, first electrode 500 and second electrode 600 as the semiconductor device with face-up structure. In this embodiment, the first structure 200 is an LED epitaxial structure, and the second structure 400 is an ESD protection structure, or the first structure 200 is an ESD protection structure, and the second structure 400 is an LED epitaxial structure. The first electrode 500 is electrically connected to the first semiconductor layer 210 and the third semiconductor layer 410, respectively, and the second electrode 600 is electrically connected to the second semiconductor layer 230 and the fourth semiconductor layer 430, respectively, so that the first structure 200 and the second structure 400 are reversely connected in parallel. When static electricity causes the LED epitaxial structure to emit light, the semiconductor device emits light from the back side (i.e., from the side of the substrate 100).

[0054] Specifically, the first semiconductor layer 210 includes but is not limited to a first ohmic contact layer 211, a first window layer 212, and a first confinement layer 213 stacked sequentially from bottom to top, and the first electrode 500 is electrically connected to the first ohmic contact layer 211.
