Abstract

The invention provides a reliable way to fabricate a new vertical structure compound semiconductor device with improved light output and a laser lift-off processes for mass production of GaN-based compound semiconductor devices. A theme of the invention is employing direct metal support substrate deposition prior to the LLO by an electro-plating method to form an n-side top vertical structure. In addition, an ITO DBR layer is employed right next to a p-contact layer to enhance the light output by higher reflectivity. A perforated metal wafer carrier is also used for wafer bonding for easy handling and de-bonding. A new fabrication process is more reliable compared to the conventional LLO-based vertical device fabrication. Light output of the new vertical device having n-side up structure is increased 2 or 3 times higher than that of the lateral device fabricated with same GaN / InGaN epitaxial films.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the fabrication of a GaN-based vertical structure semiconductor device with top and bottom contact structures and a method for fabricating the vertical structure device. Background technique [0002] FIG. 1 shows a conventional gallium nitride (GaN)-based (GaN-based) semiconductor device 100 fabricated on an insulating sapphire substrate 114 . The device can be used in applications such as Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs), Laser Diodes (LDs), Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors (HBTs), and High Electron Mobility Transistors (HEMTs). In a conventional process, the device is formed on a sapphire substrate, and two electrical contacts are formed on top of the device. A p-contact 102 is formed on top, and a mesa etch is used to remove material to form an n-metal contact 118 . The result is known as a lateral structure device and tends to exhibit several problems including poor resistance to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and he...
