Abstract

A GaN-based vertical structure light-emitting diode (LED) and a preparation method thereof relate to an LED. The vertical structure comprises a sapphire substrate, a low-temperature GaN buffer layer, a first Si-doped GaN layer, 5-10 periods of n-InGaN / n-AlGaN or n-AlGaN / n-GaN superlattice layer, a second Si-doped GaN layer, 5 periods of fixed or gradient component InGaN / GaN quantum-well, an Mg-doped AlGaN layer, an Mg-doped GaN layer, 5 periods of p-InGaN / p-AlGaN superlattice layer and a p-InGaN cover layer from bottom to top. The preparation method comprises the following steps: placing the sapphire substrate in a reaction chamber, performing heat processing and nitridation processing to the substrate in turn, successively growing the GaN buffer layer to the p-InGaN cover layer, and annealing to obtain the GaN-based vertical structure LED.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a light-emitting diode, in particular to a light-emitting diode with a GaN-based vertical structure of the third-generation compound semiconductor material. Background technique [0002] As we all know, GaN-based blue, purple, and blue-green light-emitting diodes have been widely used in many fields due to their long life, low power consumption, and small size, such as large-area full-color flat panel displays, instrument lights, blue-green traffic lights, etc. Lamps and various lighting equipment, etc. ([1].Masayoshi Koike, Naoki Shibata, Hisaki Kato, et al.Development of high efficiency GaN-based multiquantum-well light-emitting diodes and their applications[J].IEEEJournal on Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics, 2002, 8(2): 271-277). Since GaN belongs to the hexagonal crystal structure, and the growth temperature is high and lacks a bulk substrate, GaN thin films and related III-nitride semiconductor materials are usually...
