Problems solved by technology

Although the luminous efficiency of LED has surpassed that of fluorescent lamps and incandescent lamps, the luminous efficiency of commercial LEDs is still lower than that of sodium lamps (150lm / W), and the price per lumen / watt is relatively high.
At present, the luminous efficiency of LED chips is not high enough, one of the main reasons is that the sapphire substrate causes
Since the lattice mismatch between sapphire and GaN is as high as 17%, a high dislocation density is formed during the epitaxial GaN film process, which reduces the carrier mobility of the material and shortens the carrier lifetime, which in turn affects the GaN substrate. Device performance
Secondly, due to the thermal expansion coefficient of sapphire at room temperature (6.63×10 -6 K -1 ) compared with the thermal expansion coefficient of GaN (5.6×10 -6 K -1 ) is large, and the thermal mismatch between the two is about -18.4%. When the epitaxial layer growth is completed, the device will generate a large compressive stress during the process of cooling the device from the high temperature of the epitaxial growth to room temperature, which will easily lead to the torsion of the film and the substrate. crack
Third, due to the low thermal conductivity of sapphire (25 W / m.K at 100°C), it is difficult to discharge the heat generated in the chip in time, resulting in heat accumulation, which reduces the internal quantum efficiency of the device and ultimately affects the performance of the device
