Abstract

The invention provides an LED epitaxial layer growth method and an epitaxial layer structure and an LED chip obtained through the method. The growth method for the epitaxial layer growth comprises the following steps of growing a P-type AlGaN layer and a first P-Type GaN layer arranged on the top surface of the P-type AlGaN layer; and growing a shield layer between the P-type AlGaN layer and the first P-Type GaN layer, of which the shield layer is a P-type AlGaN/InGaN superlattice structure. In the growing of the P-type AlGaN layer, the growth temperature is 750-800 DEG C; the Al dosage concentration is 1.8E+20-2.2E+20atom/cm<3>;and the Mg dosage concentration is 1E+20-2E+20atom/cm<3>. In the growing of the P-type AlGaN/InGaN superlattice structure, the growth temperature is 850-900 DEG C; the Al dosage concentration is 2E+20-3E+20atom/cm<3>;and the Mg dosage concentration is 1E+20-2E+20atom/cm<3>.In the LED epitaxial layer structure provided by the invention, the P-type AlGaN/InGaN superlattice structure is inserted between the P-type AlGaN layer and the P-Type GaN layer, so that on one hand, deects of large quantities of dislocation of quantum well areas are overcome to prevent leakage passages to form between the dislocation defects and the P-Type GaN layer, and meanwhile, capability of obstructing quantum from overflowing from the multi-quantum well areas are improved.
