Abstract

The invention provides an LED epitaxial wafer, an epitaxial growth method, and an LED chip. The LED epitaxial wafer includes a P-type layer, the P-type layer includes an electron blocking layer, a transition layer and a contact layer, and the transition layer includes a first sublayer and is sequentially deposited on the second sublayer. Second and third sublayers on one sublayer, first sublayer is P‑Al 1‑x sc x N layer, second sublayer is GaN layer, third sublayer is N‑Al 1‑y sc y N layers. In the present invention, the first sublayer and the third sublayer respectively form a heterojunction interface with the second sublayer, and opposite positive and negative piezoelectric polarization charge densities are generated at the heterojunction interface, which will cause a large number of Non-equilibrium holes are injected into the first sublayer, and then injected into the active region to undergo radiative recombination with electrons, which alleviates the situation of less hole generation due to the high acceptor activation energy of the P-type layer, and solves the problem of ultraviolet light-emitting diodes. The problem of low luminous efficiency.
