Abstract

The invention discloses a deep-ultraviolet AlGaN-based light-emitting diode with a coupled quantum well structure, which at least includes: an n-type semiconductor layer, a multi-quantum well structure formed by periodically overlapping a potential barrier layer and a coupled AlGaN well layer, and a p-type semiconductor layer. It is characterized in that: the coupling AlGaN well layer includes at least a three-layer structure, which is Al from bottom to top x Ga 1‑x N well layer, Al y Ga 1‑y N barrier layer, and Al x Ga 1‑x N well layer. By using the coupled well layer structure design, the TE / TM mode spontaneous emission recombination rate of the c-plane LED is enhanced, the internal quantum efficiency of the LED device is improved, and the efficiency drop effect of the nitride LED device is suppressed, thereby improving the optics of the deep ultraviolet nitride light-emitting diode performance.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of deep UV nitride LEDs, in particular to improve the AlgaN mill quantum well structural deep ultraviolet LEDs of luminous efficiency. Background technique [0002] AlgaN-based deep UV (DUV) LED (LED) has broad application prospects in water purification, bactericidal, skin treatment, and has received wide concern. So far, in the 250-280 nm wavelength range, the outer quantum efficiency of the AlGAN-based DUV-LED die having a P-GaN contact layer is generally less than 7%. Compared to the highly efficient nitride blue LED, since the AlGAN-based DUV-LED has high absorption and unique polarization characteristics of the main electrowenevile, the P-GaN contact layer, the external quantum efficiency is low. In order to solve these problems, researchers have proposed a variety of ways to improve the luminescence efficiency of AlGAN-based DUV-LEDs. For example, the P-GaN contact layer is replaced with the AlGaN: MG contac...
