Description

Light-emitting diode and manufacture method thereof with reflection and low-impedance contact electrode
Technical field
The present invention system especially is light-emitting diode and the manufacture method thereof that has reflection and low-impedance contact electrode about a kind of about a kind of light-emitting diode and manufacture method thereof.
Background technology
In daily life, the importance of light-emitting diode (LEDs, light emitting diodes) just grows with each passing day.On various applications, all can find the light-emitting diode trace, for example aspect such as the communication equipment of portable phone and other electronic installations.In recent years, for video display, optics holder, illumination, medical equipment, (for example: demand gallium nitride) significantly increases to be applied in the nitride diode material of photoelectric field.Conventional blu-ray light-emitting diodes piping forms by using nitride semi-conductor material, for example: gallium nitride (GaN), aluminium gallium nitride alloy (AlGaN), InGaN (InGaN) and aluminum indium nitride gallium (AlInGaN).The mode of prolonging is formed on the non-conductive sapphire substrate beyond the semiconductor series of strata of the light-emitting diode assembly of most of aforementioned type.Because sapphire substrate is an electrical insulator, so stream passes through light-emitting diode with drive current can't directly to form electrode on sapphire substrate, and actual practice is that electrode is done directly to contact with a p type semiconductor layer and a n type semiconductor layer respectively, to finish the making of light-emitting diode assembly.
Yet the non-conductive character of configuration of this kind electrode and sapphire substrate can cause great restriction to the device operation.For example, need on the p type semiconductor layer, form the translucent face that connects, so that electric current is spread n type electrode by p type electrode.Because the reflection and the absorption of light-emitting diode inside, the translucent face that connects can lower the luminous intensity that the self-luminous diode apparatus is emitted.On the other hand, p type and n type electrode not only can cause obstruction to light, also can reduce the light-emitting area of light-emitting diode assembly simultaneously.In addition, because sapphire substrate is a heat insulator, so the heat that is produced in the device operating process can't carry out efficiently radiates heat by sapphire substrate.Therefore, the restriction of known semiconductor structure comprises: (1) since electrode the position is set, from n type electrode stream pass through to the electric current of p type electrode be not to be evenly distributed; And (2) because sapphire is heat and electrical insulator, so heat can be accumulated in the operating process in device.
When p type electrode and n type electrode are applied in forward voltage (forward voltage), but just conducting light-emitting diode, and electric current can be from p type electrode stream to active layer.Because the resistivity height of traditional p-GaN contact layer, thereby it is not good to cause electric current to scatter (current spreading) effect.Again, because the tack between p type semiconductor layer and the reflective metal layer is relatively poor, so cause the problem of peeling off through regular meeting.
