Abstract

An Al component gradually-changed N-type LED structure and a preparation method thereof are disclosed. The Al component gradually-changed N-type LED structure successively comprises, from bottom to top, a substrate, a nucleating layer, a buffer layer, an N-type Al<Y>In<X>Ga<1-X-Y>N layer, a multi-quantum well light-emitting layer, and a P-type GaN layer. In the N-type Al<Y>In<X>Ga<1-X-Y>N layer, X is more than or equal to 0 but less than or equal to 1, and Y is more than 0 but less than 1. An Al component in an N-type GaN layer is gradually changed. The method comprises the following steps of: (1) growing the nucleating layer on a processed substrate; (2) growing a non-doped gallium nitride buffer layer on the nucleating layer; (3) growing the N-type Al<Y>In<X>Ga<1-X-Y>N layer on the buffer layer; (4) growing the multi-quantum well light-emitting layer on the N-type Al<Y>In<X>Ga<1-X-Y>N layer, wherein the multi-quantum well light-emitting layer is formed by periodically and alternately superposed InGaN potential well layers and GaN barrier layers; and (5) growing the P-type GaN layer on the multi-quantum well light-emitting layer. An N-type region is prepared by an Al component gradually-changed mode, thereby improving electron concentration and an antistatic effect, essentially improving GaN film quality, enhancing current expansion capability, and increasing light extraction efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a structure and a preparation method of an N-type LED (light-emitting diode) with gradually changing Al components, and belongs to the technical field of LED (light-emitting diode) structures. Background technique [0002] In the early 1990s, the third-generation wide-bandgap semiconductor materials represented by nitrides made a historic breakthrough. Researchers successfully prepared blue-green and ultraviolet LEDs on gallium nitride materials, making LED lighting become possible. In 1971, the first gallium nitride LED die came out. In 1994, gallium nitride HEMTs appeared blue light GaN-based diodes with high electron mobility, and gallium nitride semiconductor materials developed very rapidly. [0003] Semiconductor light-emitting diodes have the advantages of small size, ruggedness, strong controllability of light-emitting bands, high luminous efficiency, low heat loss, low light decay, energy saving, and environmental pro...
