Problems solved by technology

[0006] Technical problem: The object of the present invention is to provide a UV light-emitting diode with a flip-chip structure. On the one hand, the structure uses AlGaN-BN DBR as the p-type region of the UV LED, and on the other hand, BN is used as the EBL of the UV LED. Therefore, it can It fundamentally solves the problems of low light extraction efficiency and high turn-on voltage of the ultraviolet LED with the traditional flip-chip structure; moreover, on the p-type region of the DBR, the flip-chip structure provided by the present invention can still use the currently developed mature heavily doped p- GaN ohmic contact layer and ITO material transparent conductive layer process and technology, so that the current congestion effect that occurs during current injection can be effectively alleviated

Abstract

The invention provides an ultraviolet light emitting diode with an inverted structure, which comprises a substrate, an AlN nucleation layer, an un-doped AlN or AlaGa1-aN buffer layer, an n-type AlbGa1-bN region, an AlcGa1-cN-AldGa1-dN multi-quantum well active region, a BN electronic barrier layer, an AleGa1-eN-BN Bragg reflector structure p-type region, a heavily-doped p-type GaN layer, an ITO conductive layer, a p-type ohmic electrode arranged on the ITO conductive layer and an n-type ohmic electrode arranged on the n-type AlbGa1-bN layer sequentially from bottom to top. The n-type ohmic electrode and other regions except the n-type AlbGa1-bN layer are insulated. According to the ultraviolet light emitting diode with an inverted structure, the light emitting efficiency of the ultravioletLED can be effectively improved, and the threshold voltage and the resistivity of the ultraviolet LED can be greatly reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an ultraviolet light-emitting diode (LED) with an inverted structure, belonging to the field of compound semiconductor optoelectronic materials and ultraviolet LED manufacturing. Background technique [0002] Due to its high photon energy and strong penetrating ability, ultraviolet light is widely used in sterilization, water and air purification, solid-state lighting, detection of biochemical harmful substances, high-density storage, and military communications. [0003] AlGaN material is the core material for making UV LEDs. First of all, Al n Ga 1-n N material is a wide band gap direct band gap semiconductor material (0<n<1), by adjusting the ternary compound Al n Ga 1-n Al component n in N, can achieve Al n Ga 1-n The energy of the N bandgap varies continuously between 3.4 and 6.2eV, thereby obtaining ultraviolet light with a wavelength ranging from 210 to 365nm. Second, Al n Ga 1-n N is a compound with stron...
