To demonstrate the preferred embodiments of the present invention below with reference to accompanying drawing.In accompanying drawing, similar components adopts identical component symbol.Should note presenting the present invention for clear, each element in accompanying drawing not according to the scale of material object, and for avoiding fuzzy content of the present invention, below illustrating and also omitting known spare part, associated materials and correlation processing technique thereof.
Figure 1A and 1A ' to Fig. 1 E and 1E ' shows profile and the vertical view of each step in light-emitting diode 190 manufacturing process according to the embodiment of the present invention, wherein Figure 1A ' to Fig. 1 E ' is vertical view, and Figure 1A to Fig. 1 E is the profile of the line I-I ' of the E ' along Figure 1A ' to Fig. 1.
First, with reference to Figure 1A and 1A ', provide growth substrate 100, sequentially growth sacrifice layer 120 and epitaxial loayer 140 are in growth substrate 100.The component of growth substrate 100 can to comprise in nitrogen, aluminium, gallium, arsenic, zinc, silicon, oxygen at least one, such as: n-type GaAs.Epitaxial loayer 140 is sandwich construction, and its component can to comprise in nitrogen, aluminium, gallium, indium, arsenic, phosphorus, silicon, oxygen at least one, and element contained by each layer is not to be all necessity mutually, such as: it sequentially can comprise contact layer, n-type Al under n-type GaAs xga 1-xcoating layer, Al under As yga 1-yas active layer, p-type Al zga 1-zcontact layer on the upper coating layer of As and p-type GaAs, x, y and z are respectively between 0 and 1.The thickness of epitaxial loayer 140 can between 1 to 100 μm, but this is not limited.In the present embodiment, sacrifice layer 120 and epitaxial loayer 140 are all formed with extensional mode.The component of sacrifice layer 120 can to comprise in aluminium, arsenic at least one, and such as: AlAs, this material can make etchant, relative to growth substrate 100, epitaxial loayer 140 and the follow-up supporting layer that will be formed, optionally by sacrifice layer 120 erosion person.Sacrifice layer 120 thickness preferably exists with between.In addition, the electrical of growth substrate 100 also can be p-type, and user is when combination in any being needed to arrange in pairs or groups according to it.
With reference to Figure 1B and 1B ', patterning epitaxial loayer 140 with formed one or several epitaxial loayer opening 141 penetrate epitaxial loayer 140 and expose beneath sacrifice layer 120.Form multiple epitaxial loayer opening 141 and can have multiple object, for example (,) can be used for carrying out each light-emitting diode chip for backlight unit location, maybe etchant can be allowed to contact the hole of sacrifice layer 120.The present invention, in the opening made by other embodiments or groove, is not limited to epitaxial loayer, also can based on object as above.Gold-tinted etching technique can be used to complete this step.The position of multiple epitaxial loayer opening 141 can arrange or be distributed in the surface of epitaxial loayer 140 randomly in array ground as shown in Figure 1B.The shape of epitaxial loayer opening 141 can be circle, rectangle, polygon or other suitable shapes, and its size is then determined according to implementation demand.In embodiment, after patterning, the epitaxial loayer 142 (i.e. remaining epitaxial loayer 140 after patterning) of epitaxial loayer opening 141 surrounding is still interconnected.For example, Figure 1B ' display is around the epitaxial layer portion 142a of opening 141a; Around the epitaxial layer portion 142b of opening 141b; Around the epitaxial layer portion 142c of opening 141c.As shown in the figure, epitaxial layer portion 142a, 142b and 142c is interconnected integratedly.In other words, after patterning, remaining epitaxial loayer 142 presents continuous structure, and namely it can not have discrete disjunct island part because of the formation of multiple epitaxial loayer opening 141.In addition, though should note illustrating the epitaxial loayer opening 141 penetrating epitaxial loayer 140 in embodiment, so also can partially or completely through sacrifice layer 120 in other embodiment epitaxial layers openings 141.In detail, in another embodiment, except forming epitaxial loayer opening 141, on sacrifice layer 120, also form sacrifice layer groove (not shown) with at least one epitaxial loayer opening 141 of correspondence; Again in an embodiment again, except forming epitaxial loayer opening 141, also being formed and running through sacrifice layer 120 and the sacrifice layer opening (not shown) of corresponding at least one epitaxial loayer opening 141.
With reference to figure 1C and 1C ', form supporting layer 150 on the epitaxial loayer 140 of the multiple epitaxial loayer opening 141 of tool.Supporting layer 150 has multiple supporting layer opening 151 and penetrates supporting layer 150 and be communicated with corresponding epitaxial loayer opening 141.In other words, supporting layer 150 is formed in the region beyond epitaxial loayer 140 upper surface epitaxial loayer opening 141.In embodiment, supporting layer 150 has the pattern identical with the epitaxial loayer 140 after patterning, therefore should understand that all supporting layers 152 around multiple supporting layer opening 151 are all interconnected from the above.But in another embodiment, supporting layer 150 has the pattern not identical with the epitaxial loayer 140 after patterning, in other words, in the arrangement mode of epitaxial loayer opening 141 and supporting layer opening 151, patterns of openings or quantity, at least one is not identical.Supporting layer 150 is mainly used to replace growth substrate 100 to support epitaxial loayer 140, and growth substrate 100 like this could remove in subsequent step.Do not have the epitaxial loayer 140 of supporting layer 150 will be difficult to operation because thickness is too thin.In this embodiment, supporting layer 150 can be photoresist, metal or plated metal, its thickness between 50 μm to 300 μm, so not as limit.
With reference to figure 1C and 1C ', after supporting layer 150 is formed, selective etch sacrifice layer 120 and make growth substrate 100 depart from epitaxial loayer 140.In detail, can use relative to growth substrate 100, epitaxial loayer 140 and supporting layer 150, selectivity corrodes the etchant of sacrifice layer 120, it is made to flow through epitaxial loayer opening 140 with supporting layer opening 150 and then remove sacrifice layer 120 gradually, and then make growth substrate 100 depart from epitaxial loayer 140, but sacrifice layer 120 is not to be removed completely as necessity, as long as its volume contacted with levels or area are cut down to being enough to make growth substrate 100 depart from epitaxial loayer 140.Citric acid is used to carry out selective wet etching for etchant in this embodiment.Right the present invention does not get rid of other suitable wet etching or dry ecthings.
Fig. 1 D and 1D ' for sacrifice layer 120 remove and growth substrate 100 depart from after structural representation.Should notice that, in this structure, epitaxial loayer 140 engages with supporting layer about 150; The epitaxial loayer 142 of epitaxial loayer opening 141 surrounding is interconnected; And the supporting layer 152 of supporting layer opening 151 surrounding is interconnected.Because this structure contains discrete disjunct island part completely or hardly, therefore, as long as the thickness of supporting layer 150 is enough, namely follow-up each processing step can be carried out by this operation epitaxial film.
