Abstract

The invention relates to a GaN-based light-emitting diode structure which comprises a substrate, an n-type GaN conductive layer, an n-type AlGaN limitation layer, an active region luminous layer, a p-type AlGaN limitation layer, a p electrode and an n electrode. A layer of p-type diamond film conductive layer is deposited on the upper surface or the lower surface of the p-type AlGaN limitation layer. The size of the cross sectional area of the p-type diamond film conductive layer is the same with the size of the p-type AlGaN limitation layer, and the thickness of the p-type diamond film conductive layer is 50-500 nm. The diamond film has a weak absorption effect on full-waveband light, so that light absorption is reduced, and light extraction efficiency of LED can be effectively improved; the forbidden band width of diamond is relatively large, so that the reflection effect on electrons is strong, electron leakage can be reduced, and brightness is improved; and the p-type diamond film is easy to dope, the hole concentration is relatively high, and ohmic contact is easy to prepare.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a GaN-based light-emitting diode structure and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of semiconductors. Background technique [0002] Light-emitting diode (referred to as "LED") is a semiconductor solid-state light-emitting device, which uses the conduction band electrons and valence band holes inside the semiconductor material to undergo radiative recombination, and releases energy in the form of photons to directly emit light. By designing different bandgap widths of semiconductor materials, light-emitting diodes can emit light in different bands from infrared to ultraviolet. [0003] Nitride light-emitting diodes have been widely developed around the world due to their advantages of high efficiency, energy saving, long life and small size. Ultraviolet light-emitting diodes with a luminous wavelength of 210-365nm have broad application prospects in the fields of sterilization, biomedicine, lighting, ...
