Problems solved by technology

[0004] The use of DBR reflectors for ultraviolet LED chips can further improve the brightness of the chip. In the prior art, the back of the LED chip is coated with a DBR reflector, and the flip chip uses a thick metal reflective layer combined with a silicon dioxide passivation layer to form a reflector. , the use of thick Ag technology as a reflector not only absorbs light (especially deep ultraviolet light), but also when corroding thick Ag during processing, the liquid corrosion has the same characteristics. Too thick metal is not easy to control, and it is easy to cause poor corrosion. clean and leakage

Abstract

The invention discloses a novel flip LED chip preparation method. The novel flip LED chip preparation method is used for preparing a high-reflectivity reflector and the related structure. Through combining an ultra-thin Ni / Ag film with a DBR reflector, the light absorption of the metal can be reduced, the chip brightness is effectively improved, and meanwhile, the DBR reflector replaces a traditional silicon oxide passivation layer to protect the chip. The evaporation rate of Ni in the Ni / Ag film is expressed in a FORMULA (as shown in the description), the evaporation thickness is expressed in a FORMULA (as shown in the description), the evaporation rate of Ag is FORMULA (as shown in the description), and the evaporation thickness is expressed in a FORMULA (as shown in the description); a DBR reflecting layer comprises single-layer SiO2 and a multi-period structure formed by alternately depositing TiO2 and SiO2 films based on the single-layer SiO2, and the period number is larger than 4.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of LED chip preparation, and mainly relates to a new preparation method for improving the brightness of flip-chip LED chips. Background technique: [0002] With the development of LED applications, UV LEDs are widely used because of their wider spectral range (light emitting wavelengths can cover the 210-400nm band), more energy-saving, and no toxic mercury. In many aspects of life, such as UV disinfection, UV hardening, optical sensors, UV authentication, body fluid detection and analysis and other fields. The current main challenge of UV LED technology is the chip with low efficiency and wavelength below 365nm, and the output power of UV LED is only 5%-8% of the input power. When the wavelength is above 385nm, the efficiency of violet LED is improved, but only 15% of the input power. [0003] Flip-chip LED chips can effectively improve the brightness of LED chips. Traditional flip-chips are mainly blue...
