Abstract

The invention relates to a novel semiconductor light-emitting diode, which comprises a substrate, a buffer layer, an N-type layer, an active layer, an electronic barrier layer, a P-type layer and a P-type contact metal layer. The P-type layer, the electronic barrier layer, the active layer and the like are penetrated through etching; an N-type layer material is exposed to one side of a P-type material directly, and an N-type contact metal and an electrode are covered on an exposed area, so that the diffusion of transverse current in the N-type layer is enhanced; and simultaneously, a P-type metal covers an integral P-type semiconductor layer, and an LED emits light from the bottom surface of the substrate. Through the improvement, the transverse diffusion distance of the current in LED devices is shortened substantially, uneven distribution of current density in the LED devices due to current congestion is prevented, so that the LED devices emit the light uniformly, and the shading effect of a P-type electrode is eliminated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a semiconductor light emitting diode. Background technique [0002] Semiconductor light emitting diode (Light Emitting Diode, hereinafter referred to as LED) is a semiconductor light emitting device, which uses gallium nitride series compound light emitting materials to cause photon recombination under forward voltage to emit light. LED directly emits white and various colored lights, and its luminous process includes carrier injection under forward bias voltage, recombined radiative luminescence and effective extraction of light energy. [0003] However, the current mainstream LED design adopts a Mesa-etch structure in which the N-type and P-type electrodes are located at the left and right ends of the LED, and its electron injection and diffusion are limited, resulting in reduced LED luminous efficiency and low luminous brightness. Uniform (such as figure 1 shown). Under high current density injection conditions, the area ...
