Description

LED chip with graphical N electrode
Technical field
Field, more particularly to a kind of LED chip with graphical N electrode are manufactured the present invention relates to LED.
Background technology
With the requirement more and more higher that LED is imitated in the progressively application of lighting field, market to white light LED light, GaN base is vertical Structure LED has good heat-sinking capability, can bear Bulk current injection, and such a light emitting diode (LED) chip with vertical structure can be suitable In several formal dress fabric chips, equivalent cost only has the part of positive assembling structure.Therefore, GaN base vertical structure LED is market Institute to, be semiconductor lighting development inexorable trend.Compared with traditional planar structure LED, vertical structure LED has many excellent Point:Two electrodes of vertical structure LED are respectively in LED both sides, and electric current almost all flows vertically through epitaxial layer, without lateral flow Electric current, homogeneous current distribution, the heat of generation reduces;Using bonding with the method peeled off by the bad Sapphire Substrate of heat conduction Remove, change good conductivity and the substrate with high heat conductance into, can effectively radiate;N-GaN layers are exiting surface, and the layer has Certain thickness, is easy to make surface micro-structure, to improve light extraction efficiency.In a word, compared with conventional planar structure, vertical junction Structure has obvious advantage in terms of light extraction, radiating.
With the high speed development of semiconductor technology, LED internal quantum can reach more than 90%, and internal quantum is imitated The raising of rate is not notable, is influenceed by factors, such as LED structure, electrode shape, electrode material, current expansion thickness Degree etc., the leading factor improved as restriction LED luminous efficiencies.Relative to method (such as high reflection of other raising LED luminances Film, substrate desquamation, surface coarsening etc.) for, most easy-operating is that the electrode shape of chip is optimized, and electrode shape is to light Output influence is very big, if current spread is insufficient, uneven, light extraction can be caused to reduce, by the shape for rationally designing electrode LED luminous efficiency can be improved.
In theory, in the place more remote from electrode, electric current is smaller, and brightness is lower.For existing vertical electrode structure technology, Traditionally electrode shape is best for the I-V performances of " ten " font or the LED chip of " rice " word shape.But " ten " font or " rice " Font electrode in the chips divide by center portion, and because electrode compares concentration, electric current is also relatively concentrated, and so causes LED current point Cloth is not uniform enough, and particularly to the marginal portion of table top, CURRENT DISTRIBUTION is extremely uneven so that the brightness very little of marginal portion. Near central circular surrounding them and slotting finger, current crowding, in chip edge part, electric current is small.Current trend is from centre to side Edge is less and less, and brightness is also more and more weaker.
General usually using argent as speculum, but is due to Ag easy diffusion when making vertical structure LED, One layer of barrier layer (barrier) can be made and wrap speculum, each chip circumference, which has general 5 μm~10 μm regions, not to be had Reflecting layer (such as Fig. 1), in Fig. 1, speculum 20 is blocked layer 10 and surrounded, and because speculum 20 is used for reflection light, and stops Layer 10 is due to material limitation, and reflection light is extremely weak, causes the region reflection light to have significant portion loss, and one on evaporation As " ten " font or " rice " font N electrode after, this zone current distribution it is also uneven, to light extraction contribution also greatly reduce.
The content of the invention
, can be anti-using edge barrier layer it is an object of the invention to provide a kind of LED chip with graphical N electrode The weak defect of light, forms N electrode, makes CURRENT DISTRIBUTION more uniform above it, improves luminous efficiency.
To achieve these goals, the present invention proposes a kind of LED chip with graphical N electrode, including:Reflection Mirror, barrier layer, epitaxial layer and N electrode, the speculum are formed in the barrier layer and expose a surface of speculum, institute State epitaxial layer to be formed on the surface on the speculum and barrier layer, the N electrode is formed at the surface of the epitaxial layer, described N electrode includes central area and inserts finger, and the slotting finger-type of a part is into the epi-layer surface directly over the barrier layer, the slotting finger The surface on the barrier layer is covered in whole or in part, and the slotting finger is connected with the central area.
Further, the epitaxial layer includes P-GaN, SQW and the N-GaN sequentially formed, and the P-GaN formation exists On the surface on the speculum and barrier layer, the N electrode is formed at the surface of the N-GaN.
Further, slotting refer to is strip, is point-symmetrically arranged along the central area.
Further, the slotting finger-type is into matrix pattern or octagon.
Further, the width range of the slotting finger is 3 μm~10 μm.
Further, the central area is circular or polygon.
Further, when circle is in the central area, the diameter range of the central area is 50 μm -120 μm;It is described When central area is polygon, the side size range of the central area is 30 μm -100 μm.
Further, the material of the N electrode is Cr, Al, Ti, Pt, Au one or more.
Compared with prior art, the beneficial effects are mainly as follows:At the fringe region between LED chip Reflective extremely weak barrier layer is formed with, N electrode is extended to the surface on barrier layer, on the one hand because N electrode extension is reflective On extremely weak barrier layer, the reflection efficiency of speculum is not influenceed;On the other hand the N electrode of extension can make CURRENT DISTRIBUTION more equal It is even, improve luminous and radiating the uniformity of LED chip.
