Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of a GaN-based LED epitaxial structure. The preparation method comprises the following steps of: preparing a nucleating layer, an undoped GaN layer, an N-type GaN layer, and an InGaN / GaN superlattice quantum well structure all which are sequentially laminated; growing an InGaN / GaN preposed quantum well structure, a multi-quantum-well light-emitting layer structure, an AlGaN layer, a low-temperature P-type layer, a P-type electron blocking layer and a P-type GaN layer by gradually changing the temperature from high temperature to low temperature. The preparation method is characterized in that the InGaN / GaN preposed quantum well structure is grown by a temperature-changing method, electron distribution in the light-emitting quantum well can be modulated by the preposed quantum well structure according to the flowing method of buffered electrons to the P end, so that the electrons can be uniformly distributed in the light-emitting quantum well, the internal quantum efficiency is enhanced and the light-emitting efficiency of the epitaxial structure is improved.
