Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an optoelectronic device comprising a plurality of pixels each including at least one primary sub-pixel, the sub-pixel including at least one primary light emitting diode adapted to emit a first light radiation having substantially a first wavelength and formed on a support surface of a substrate.

[0002] The present invention also relates to a method for manufacturing an optoelectronic device comprising a plurality of pixels, wherein forming the plurality of pixels comprises performing a first phase of forming, for each pixel, at least one primary sub-pixel comprising at least one primary light-emitting diode adapted to emit a first light radiation having substantially a first wavelength and formed on a support surface of a substrate.

[0003] The invention finds particular application in display screens or image projection systems. [Background technology]

[0004] "Optoelectronic device" as used herein refers to a device that emits an electrical signal. By "electromagnetic radiation" is meant a device adapted to convert light into electromagnetic radiation, in particular light, which is transmitted through a light source.

[0005] There are optoelectronic devices formed on the support surface of a substrate and comprising light emitting diodes, also known under the acronym LED.

[0006] It is known that each light emitting diode includes an active material that may or may not utilize a quantum well, a semiconductor portion doped according to a first doping type to function as a P-doped connection point, and a semiconductor portion doped according to a second doping type to function as an N-doped connection point.

[0007] Each light-emitting diode may be made on the basis of a micrometric or even nanometric semiconductor wire three-dimensional element, which in turn may be obtained at least in part by growth by epitaxy, or by metalorganic vapor deposition (MOCVD), or by plasma-assisted deposition (PECVD). Typically, light-emitting diodes are made on the basis of semiconductor materials containing elements from groups III and V of the periodic table, such as III-V compounds, in particular gallium nitride (GaN), indium gallium nitride (InGaN) or aluminum gallium nitride (AlGaN).

[0008] The architecture of the three-dimensional light-emitting diode may be of the "core-shell" type, having a first semiconductor portion doped according to a first doping type and in the form of a wire, an active semiconductor portion covering the first portion, and a second semiconductor portion doped according to a second doping type and covering the active portion. The first portion is considered to be the "core", and the active portion and the second doped portion form the "shell" as they surround the first portion.

[0009] A second known architecture is called the "axial structure", in which a first semiconductor part doped according to a first doping type, an active part, and a second semiconductor part doped according to a second doping type are stacked wholly or partly along the longitudinal axis of the light-emitting diode.

[0010] A light-emitting diode having a specific emitting surface through which the light radiation emitted by the light-emitting diode passes. There are optoelectronic devices that include an array of light-emitting diodes. Such optoelectronic devices may be used, inter alia, in the construction of display screens or image projection systems, where the array of light-emitting diodes actually defines an array of light-emitting pixels, each pixel traditionally including at least one subpixel for producing each color, the subpixels themselves including at least one light-emitting diode. A given subpixel may, for example, include up to 100,000 light-emitting diodes. To form an image, the optoelectronic devices may be organized into individual pixels.

[0011] In particular, each pixel conventionally comprises: at least one sub-pixel formed by at least one light emitting diode adapted to directly generate or transmit blue light via a suitable light converter; at least one sub-pixel formed by at least one light emitting diode adapted to directly generate or transmit green light via a suitable light converter; and at least one sub-pixel formed by at least one light emitting diode adapted to directly generate or transmit red light via a suitable light converter.

[0012] A first known solution consists in providing for each pixel at least one light-emitting diode adapted to emit blue light, at least one light-emitting diode adapted to emit green light, and at least one light-emitting diode adapted to emit red light. To achieve this, light-emitting diodes adapted to emit light of a given color are manufactured on the same substrate, which is repeated separately for the three colors. Each substrate is then cut to separate the individual devices. Each pixel is then obtained by mechanical restructuring to associate such individual devices so as to have the three colors.

[0013] This solution, also known under the name "pick and place", is not optimal as it involves many operations, long manufacturing times and high costs, as well as a considerable number of connections. Unfortunately, given the trend towards miniaturization, this solution sometimes proves impossible to implement.

[0014] Another solution consists in providing a light-emitting diode adapted to emit blue light. The latter may include photoluminescent pads acting as color converters, so that the light pixels can emit green and / or red light. These photoluminescent pads are usually formed by a suitable binder matrix.

[0015] Nevertheless, this solution is not entirely satisfactory, since the photoluminescent pads induce high light losses. Generally, the conversion rate of the pads is in practice comprised between 50% and 80%. Furthermore, it remains complex and very expensive to implement, due to the operations dedicated to the production of the photoluminescent pads.

[0016] One difficulty is to achieve that each pixel can directly generate light of different colors, especially blue, green, and red, and especially can be made from materials such as GaN, InGaN, or AIGaN without having to change the fabrication technology from one sub-pixel to another and from one pixel to another.

[0017] Another major difficulty is that the diameter of a light-emitting diode affects the color of the light radiation emitted therefrom. Conventionally, a light-emitting diode emitting red or green light will generally have a larger diameter than a light-emitting diode emitting blue light. In view of the increasing miniaturization of optoelectronic devices, it becomes necessary to obtain light-emitting diodes with diameters in the range of 100 nanometers. Still, obtaining patterns with dimensions in the range of 100 nanometers becomes extremely expensive, especially during the lithography steps that define the position of the light-emitting diodes.

[0018] Another difficulty is that small diameter light emitting diodes have significant structural defects, especially at their tips, due to mismatches in atomic lattices.

[0019] Also, as wired light emitting diodes significantly reduce the size of the wired light emitting diodes, the light intensity emitted by the light emitting diodes significantly reduces. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0020] SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to address all or some of the above problems.

[0021] In particular, the object is to provide a solution that addresses at least one of the following objectives: ensure that each pixel directly emits two or three different colors without resorting to "pick and place" techniques; be simple and economical to manufacture; ensure that sub-pixels emitting different colors can be manufactured with the same technology and without mechanical manipulation; ensure high light extraction from each light emitting diode; remove the need for a color converter; avoid the use of light emitting diodes with very small diameters; allow the use of light emitting diodes that all have a substantially similar diameter from one sub-pixel to another.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0047] In the figures and the following description, the same reference numerals represent the same or similar elements. Furthermore, different elements are not drawn to scale to enhance the clarity of the figures. Furthermore, different embodiments and variants are not mutually exclusive and may be combined together.

[0048] In the following description, unless otherwise indicated, the terms "substantially," "about," and "within a range" mean "within 10%."

[0049] For illustrative purposes only, and without any limitation, each of the accompanying figures represents only an assembly including several light-emitting diodes 111, 121, 131. The number of light emitting diodes per sub-pixel 11a, 11b, 11c and the number of pixels are in no way limited.

[0050] First, the present invention includes at least one primary light emitting diode 111 adapted to emit a first optical radiation having substantially a first wavelength and formed on a support surface 110 of a substrate 101. The present invention relates to an optoelectronic device 10 comprising a plurality of pixels 11, each including at least one primary sub-pixel 11a.

[0051] A particularly targeted application, thanks to the three-dimensional light emitting diode arrangement of the present invention, is the provision of an image display screen or image projection device.

[0052] It is clear that the manufacturing method may also relate to other applications, in particular the detection or measurement of electromagnetic radiation, or else photovoltaic applications.

[0053] The optoelectronic device 10 is obtained starting from a substrate 101 having a support surface 110, an element common to the various embodiments.

[0054] The substrate 101 consists, for example, of a stack of a monolithic layer (not shown), a bottom electrode layer (not shown), which may be called a seed layer or a conductive nucleation layer, and a first electrically insulating layer (not shown). Those skilled in the art can refer, for example, to document FR-A1-3053530 for providing such a substrate 101.

[0055] The support surface 110 of the substrate 101 is formed, for example, by the exposed surface of the first electrically insulating layer or nucleation layer.

[0056] The monolithic layer can be formed from a doped or undoped semiconductor material, such as Al2O3 or silicon or even germanium, in particular even monocrystalline silicon. It can also be formed from sapphire or even from a III-V semiconductor material, such as GaN. Alternatively, it can be a silicon-on-insulator type substrate or "SOI". Alternatively, the monolithic layer can be formed in an electrically insulating material.

[0057] The bottom electrode layer may function as a seed layer for the growth of the light emitting diode portion. The bottom electrode layer may be continuous or discontinuous. The material comprising the bottom electrode layer may be a nitride, carbide, or boride of a transition metal from Group IV, V, or VI of the periodic table of the elements, or a combination of these compounds. For example, the bottom electrode layer may be a nitride, carbide, or boride of a transition metal from Group IV, V, or VI of the periodic table of the elements, or a combination of these compounds. For example, the bottom electrode layer may be a nitride of the formula Mg x N y where x is equal to about 3 and y is equal to about 2), aluminum nitride, aluminum oxide, boron, boron nitride, titanium, titanium nitride, tantalum, tantalum nitride, hafnium, hafnium nitride, niobium, niobium nitride, zirconium, zirconium boride, zirconium nitride, silicon carbide, tantalum carbide nitride, or magnesium nitride, for example magnesium nitride, under the formula Mg3N2. The lower electrode layer may be doped and has the same type of conductivity as the semiconductor element intended to be grown, and has a thickness, for example, between 1 nm and 200 nm, preferably between 10 nm and 50 nm. The lower electrode layer may consist of an alloy or a stack of at least one material mentioned in the list above.

[0058] The first electrical insulating layer may include a first intermediate insulating layer covering the lower electrode layer. It forms a growth mask, for example, through openings locally appearing on the surface of the lower electrode layer, allowing epitaxial growth of various light-emitting diodes 111, 121, and 131. The first electrical insulating layer also serves to provide electrical insulation between the first lower electrode (not shown) and the second upper electrode (not shown). The first intermediate insulating layer is made of at least one dielectric, for example, silicon oxide (e.g., SiO2 or SiON) or silicon nitride (e.g., Si3N4 or SiN), or even silicon oxynitride, aluminum oxide (e.g., Al2O3), or hafnium oxide (e.g., HfO2). The thickness of the first intermediate insulating layer may be between 5 nm and 1 μm, preferably between 20 nm and 500 nm, for example, approximately 100 nm.

[0059] The first layer of electrically insulating material may further include a second intermediate electrically insulating layer (not shown) covering the first lower electrode and contributing to providing electrical insulation between the first lower electrode and the second upper electrode. The second intermediate electrically insulating layer may also cover the growth mask formed by the first intermediate insulating layer. The second intermediate insulating layer may be made of the same or a different dielectric as the dielectric of the growth mask, such as silicon oxide (e.g., SiO) or silicon nitride (e.g., SiN or SiN), or even silicon oxynitride, aluminum oxide (e.g., AlO), or hafnium oxide (e.g., HfO). The thickness of the second intermediate insulating layer may be between 5 nm and 1 μm, preferably between 20 nm and 500 nm, e.g., about 100 nm.

[0060] At least one light emitting diode 111 adapted to emit a first light radiation having substantially a first wavelength is formed on the substrate 101. Each light emitting diode 111 has a substantially wire-like shape elongated along a longitudinal axis A extending in a first direction 111a generally perpendicular to the support surface 110 of the substrate 101.

[0061] Each light-emitting diode 111 includes at least one first primary semiconductor portion 112 electrically connected to a first electrode. Typically, each light-emitting diode is connected to a first bottom electrode, whether continuous or not, formed in the substrate (not shown, which may be a seed layer). Those skilled in the art will be able to fabricate the substrate 101 including a suitable bottom electrode with reference to French Patent No. 3053530. The first primary semiconductor portion 112 is doped according to a first doping type selected from N-type doping and P-type doping. The first primary semiconductor portion 112 has a substantially wire-like shape elongated along a longitudinal axis A extending in a first direction 111a substantially perpendicular to the support surface 110 of the substrate 101. The first primary semiconductor portion 112 therefore has a three-dimensional shape with dimensions in the micrometer or nanometer range. Preferably, the first primary semiconductor portion 112 has a substantially wire-like conical or truncated conical shape. In the text, the terms "three-dimensional" or "wired" or "frustum" or "cone" are equivalent. The first primary semiconductor portion 112 includes a tip 112a opposite to a proximal end of the first primary semiconductor portion 112, which faces the support surface 110 of the substrate 101.

[0062] In the description and figures, the embodiment is described with respect to wired light emitting diodes 111, 121, 131.

[0063] By way of example, the first primary semiconductor portion 112, as well as the first secondary semiconductor portion 122 and the first tertiary semiconductor portion 132, may be formed at least in part from a Group IV semiconductor material, such as silicon or germanium, or another material containing primarily a Group III-V compound, e.g., a III-N compound. Examples of Group III elements include gallium, indium, or aluminum. Examples of III-N compounds are GaN, AlN, InGaN, or AlInGaN. Other Group V elements, such as phosphorus, arsenic, or antimony, may also be used. In general, the elements in the III-V compounds may be combined in different mole fractions. It should be noted that the first primary semiconductor portion 112 may independently be formed from a semiconductor material containing primarily II-VI compounds. The dopant may be selected from the group including, for compounds III-V, a Group II P-type dopant, such as magnesium, zinc, cadmium or mercury, a Group IV P-type dopant, such as carbon, or a Group IV N-type dopant, such as silicon, germanium, selenium, sulfur, terbium or tin.

[0064] The right portion of the first primary semiconductor portion 112, which is also valid for the first secondary semiconductor portion 122 and the first tertiary semiconductor portion 132, may have a different shape, such as, for example, an oval, circular, or polygonal shape (e.g., square, rectangular, triangular, hexagonal).

[0065] Generally, the various layers or sublayers that make up the light emitting diodes 111, 121, and 131 are, for example, It can be obtained by any technique known to those skilled in the art, such as, for example, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), atomic layer deposition (ALD) or physical vapor deposition (PVD), but preferably by epitaxy (for example, MBE, MOVPE).

[0066] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, each light emitting diode 111 includes at least one primary lattice parameter adjusting layer 113 disposed on and in contact with at least the tip 112 a of the first primary semiconductor portion 112 .

[0067] 1 and 2, each light emitting diode 111 includes at least a second primary active semiconductor portion 114 formed by epitaxial growth from a primary lattice parameter adjusting layer 113. This second primary active semiconductor portion 114 is disposed on and in contact with at least the primary lattice parameter adjusting layer 113.

[0068] As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 9, each light-emitting diode 111 includes at least one third primary semiconductor portion 115 electrically connected to the second electrode. This third primary semiconductor portion 115 is doped according to a second doping type opposite to the first doping type. The third primary semiconductor portion 115 is disposed on and contacts at least the second primary active semiconductor portion 114. In one example, this third primary semiconductor portion 115 is identical for at least all of the primary, secondary, and tertiary light-emitting diodes comprising at least one subpixel. This third primary semiconductor portion 115 may be formed from a Group IV semiconductor material, such as silicon or germanium, or from a material primarily containing a III-V compound, such as a III-N compound. Examples of Group III elements include gallium, indium, or aluminum. Examples of III-N compounds are GaN, AlN, InGaN, or AlInGaN. Other Group V elements, such as phosphorus, arsenic, or antimony, may also be used. In general, the elements in compounds III-V may be combined in different mole fractions. It should be noted that the first primary semiconductor portion 112 may independently be formed from a semiconductor material that primarily comprises compounds II-VI. For compounds III-V, the dopant may be selected from the group including a Group II P-type dopant, such as magnesium, zinc, cadmium, or mercury, a Group IV P-type dopant, such as carbon, or a Group IV N-type dopant, such as silicon, germanium, selenium, sulfur, terbium, or tin.

[0069] The second electrode is preferentially transparent and may, in one example, be formed of a transparent conductive oxide such as doped tin oxide, or even doped zinc oxide, covered or partially uncovered with a metal electrode layer.

[0070] The second primary active semiconductor portion 114 is configured to emit the first light radiation when at least one of the first electrode and the second electrode is powered. The emitted color, i.e., the wavelength emitted by the second primary active semiconductor portion 114, depends, inter alia, on its indium concentration. The second primary active semiconductor portion 114 may include means for confining charge carriers, such as single or multiple quantum wells. It may consist, for example, of alternating GaN and InGaN layers having thicknesses of 5 to 20 nm (e.g., 8 nm) and 1 to 15 nm (e.g., 2.5 nm), respectively. The GaN layers may be doped, for example, N-type or P-type. According to another example, the active layer may include a single layer of InGaN having a thickness of, for example, greater than 10 nm.

[0071] The primary lattice parameter adjusting layer 113 has, at least at its interface with the second primary active semiconductor portion 114, a first difference in primary lattice parameter relative to the second primary active semiconductor portion 114 comprised between 2.32% and 0.93%.

[0072] The primary lattice parameter adjusting layer 113 thus configured is a second primary active semiconductor. The first lattice parameter adjusting layer 113 can serve as a basis for epitaxial growth of the second primary active semiconductor portion 114, the indium concentration of which is determined at least in part by a first difference in the primary lattice parameter of the first lattice parameter adjusting layer 113 relative to the second primary active semiconductor portion 114. This is due, inter alia, to the general fact that a change in the indium concentration in the second primary active semiconductor portion 114 will involve a change in the lattice parameter of said second primary active semiconductor portion 114. Thus, during epitaxial formation of the second primary active semiconductor portion 114, atomic species having a lattice parameter that deviates too much from the lattice parameter of the first lattice parameter adjusting layer 113 will readily desorb. Therefore, only alloys that form the second primary active semiconductor portion 114 having a selected indium concentration will be able to grow and form on the primary lattice parameter adjusting layer 113 in a time-tested manner.

[0073] Advantageously, this makes it possible to obtain a second primary active semiconductor part 114 emitting a wavelength selected independently of the diameter of the primary light emitting diode 111 .

[0074] Advantageously, this also makes it possible to obtain in a single phase, in the same reactor, a second active semiconductor part having a different indium content and therefore emitting at a different wavelength.

[0075] Thus, in one example, the primary lattice parameter adjusting layer 113 is made of a material having a difference in lattice parameter comprised between 2% and 2.5% relative to the second primary active semiconductor portion 114, the indium percentage of which is comprised between 13% and 20%. The second primary active semiconductor portion 114 thus obtained is capable of emitting a first radiation comprised between 440 nm and 500 nm and corresponding to a substantially blue light radiation.

[0076] In another example, the primary lattice parameter adjusting layer 113 is made of a material having a difference in lattice parameter comprised between 1.5% and 2% with respect to the second primary active semiconductor part 114, the indium percentage of which is comprised between 20% and 27%, and the second primary active semiconductor part 114 obtained by epitaxy from this primary lattice parameter adjusting layer 113 is adapted to emit radiation comprised between 500 nm and 570 nm and corresponding to a substantially green light emission.

[0077] In another example, the primary lattice parameter adjusting layer 113 is formed in a material having a difference in lattice parameter comprised between 1% and 1.5% with respect to the second primary active semiconductor part 114, the indium percentage of which is comprised between 27% and 40%, and the second primary active semiconductor part 114 obtained by epitaxy from this primary lattice parameter adjusting layer 113 is adapted to emit radiation comprised between 570 nm and 680 nm and corresponding to a substantially red light radiation.

[0078] The primary lattice parameter adjusting layer 113 may, in one example, have a second difference in primary lattice parameter relative to the first primary active semiconductor portion 112, at least at its interface with the first primary active semiconductor portion 112, comprised between 1.07% and 2.17%. In this example, the second difference in primary lattice parameter of 1.07% is the difference between the lattice parameters of GaN and Al 0.1 Ga 0.9 The second difference in the first order lattice parameter of 2.17% corresponds to the difference in the lattice parameter between GaN and ln 0.2 Ga 0.8 N. This may be advantageous so that the primary lattice parameter adjustment layer 113 exhibits no or few defects during formation from the first primary semiconductor portion 112. To allow the above-described first and second primary lattice parameter difference conditions to coexist, it may be advantageous to create an atomic concentration gradient in the primary lattice parameter adjustment layer 113. Thus, in one example, the proportion of gallium or aluminum or indium in the primary lattice parameter adjustment layer 113 may be varied in the first direction 111a and in the first primary semiconductor portion 112. The lattice parameter of the first primary semiconductor portion 112, through the primary lattice parameter adjusting layer 113, to the second primary active semiconductor portion 114 can be varied in a manner that decreases in the direction opposite to the tip 112a, i.e., in the direction tending away from the tip 112a. Advantageously, this allows for a gradual adaptation of the lattice parameter from the first primary semiconductor portion 112, through the primary lattice parameter adjusting layer 113, to the second primary active semiconductor portion 114. Thus, stress is reduced and dislocations are avoided.

[0079] In this document, the term "primary" refers to only the first subpixel in a given pixel, which is intended to emit light according to a first color. The term "secondary" refers to only the second subpixel in a pixel, which is intended to emit light according to a second color different from the first color. The term "tertiary" refers to only the third subpixel in a pixel, which is intended to emit light according to a third color different from the first and second colors. In other words, the terms "primary," "secondary," and "tertiary" do not convey any notion of an order of fabrication or an order of importance between different subpixels.

[0080] 3, the primary lattice parameter adjusting layer 113 comprises at least one first nature lattice parameter adjusting primary sub-layer 113a configured such that a second primary active semiconductor part 114 formed on and in contact with said first nature lattice parameter adjusting primary sub-layer 113a is capable of emitting a first light radiation that is substantially blue by consisting essentially of light rays having a wavelength comprised between a first minimum value equal to 440 nm and a first maximum value equal to 500 nm.

[0081] In one example, the first property lattice parameter adjusted primary sublayer 113a has, at least at its interface with the first primary semiconductor portion 112, a third difference in primary lattice parameter with respect to the lattice parameter of the first primary semiconductor portion 112 comprised between 1.07% and 0.65%.

[0082] In one example, the first property lattice parameter adjusting primary sublayer 113a comprises a first alloy of aluminum, gallium, indium and nitrogen, and in particular comprises a gallium fraction that decreases in the first direction 111a and in a direction opposite to the tip 112a of the first primary semiconductor portion 112.

[0084] In one example, the second nature lattice parameter-adjusted primary sublayer 113b is disposed on and in contact with at least the first nature lattice parameter-adjusted primary sublayer 113a, and the second nature lattice parameter-adjusted primary sublayer 113b has, at least at its interface with the first nature lattice parameter-adjusted primary sublayer 113a, a fourth difference in primary lattice parameter comprised between 1.71% and 3.22% relative to the lattice parameter of the first nature lattice parameter-adjusted primary sublayer 113a.

[0085] In another example, the second nature lattice parameter adjusting primary sublayer 113b comprises a second alloy of gallium, indium and nitrogen, and in particular comprises an indium fraction that decreases in the first direction 111a and in a direction opposite to the tip 112a of the first primary semiconductor portion 112.
