Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, in the traditional sapphire LED epitaxial growth, since it is difficult to form an ohmic contact between P-GaN and ITO, it is easy to increase the working voltage due to the increase of contact resistance.

Abstract

The application discloses a growth method of an LED epitaxial contact layer. The method comprises: processing a substrate; a growing a low-temperature GaN nucleating layer; growing a high-temperature GaN buffer layer; growing a non-doping u-GaN layer; growing a n-GaN layer with stable doping concentration; growing a multi-quantum-well light-emitting layer; growing a p type AlGaN layer; growing a high-temperature p type GaN layer; growing a Mg:GaN / InxGa(1-x)n / Si:GaN tunneling structure contact layer; and carrying out temperature-reducing cooling. According to the technical scheme, the contact layer of LED epitaxy is designed to have a Mg:GaN / InxGa(1-x)n / Si:GaN tunneling structure, so that the contact resistance is reduced effectively and thus the working voltage of the LED chip is reduced.
