The preferred embodiment of the manufacture method of the light emitting diode (LED) chip with vertical structure is exemplified below, with the clear explanation present invention's Content, it is understood that, present disclosure is not restricted to following examples, and other pass through those of ordinary skill in the art Conventional technical means improvement also the present invention thought range within.
Fig. 2 is refer to, and combines Fig. 3-Fig. 8, wherein Fig. 2 is the manufacture of light emitting diode (LED) chip with vertical structure in the embodiment of the present invention The flow chart of method;Fig. 3~Fig. 8 be the embodiment of the present invention in light emitting diode (LED) chip with vertical structure manufacture method during device junction The schematic diagram of structure.
As shown in Fig. 2 the manufacture method of the light emitting diode (LED) chip with vertical structure includes:
First, Fig. 3 is refer to, step S101 is performed there is provided front-end architecture, the front-end architecture includes the first substrate 10, It is formed at the functional layer 11 on the front of the first substrate 10;Preferably, the first substrate 10 can select as Sapphire Substrate, Sapphire Substrate is used in silicon substrate, silicon-carbon substrate or patterned substrate, the present embodiment.Functional layer 11 includes sequentially forming In the undoped gallium nitride layer (U-GaN) 110 on the front of the first substrate 10, n type gallium nitride layer (N-GaN) 111, quantum well layer (MQW) 112, P types gallium nitride layer (P-GaN) 113, current extending 114, speculum 115 and metal bonding layer 116.Specifically , the undoped gallium nitride layer 110, n type gallium nitride layer 111, quantum well layer 112 and p-type gallium nitride layer 113 can be used The growing methods such as MOCVD/MBE molecular beam epitaxies are sequentially formed, and the material of the current extending 114 for example can be that ITO (mixes Tin indium oxide), low resistance, the thin-films Oxygen compound of high transmission rate such as zinc oxide (ZnO) or AZO (Al-Doped ZnO), can pass through Sputtering (Sputter) mode or plasma assisted deposition (RPD) mode are formed.The material of the speculum 115 for example can be with It is aluminium (Al), silver-colored (Ag), can be formed by being deposited.Or the selection of speculum 115 is distributed bragg reflector mirror (DBR). The material of the metal bonding layer 116 for example can be golden (Au), tin (Sn) or gold-tin alloy.
Then, Fig. 4 is refer to, step S102 is performed there is provided the second substrate 12, passes through the functional layer 11 and the front end Structure is mutually bonded;Specifically, the material of second substrate 12 can include silicon (Si), copper (Cu), tungsten (W) or molybdenum (Mo) Deng so as to possess preferable heat conduction and electric conductivity.Second substrate 12 is especially by metal bonding layer 116 and the front-end architecture key It is combined.
Then, it refer to Fig. 5, perform step S103, the laser beam of 150 μm of square is less than or equal to before described using hot spot End structure is irradiated, to peel off first substrate.Preferably, before first substrate is peeled off, first by described first Substrate back is polished to smooth no marking, prevents from influenceing the hot spot of laser beam due to rough surface.Wherein figure 5 show vertical The top view of structure LED chip, including multiple units (Die) 13, in the present invention, the laser beam spot 15 of use are less than or equal to 150 μm of square, therefore, the area very little of hot spot 15, then after being irradiated between the first substrate and gallium nitride so that gallium nitride point Solution, the amount of the gas (nitrogen) discharged is just seldom, so as to ensure impulsive force very little, and make it that stress release is more slow With, also just reduce the damage to gallium nitride material, reached reduction electric leakage risk purpose.Due to the small light spot pair of the present invention The influence very little of gallium nitride, therefore, unlike as needing to overlap hot spot on Cutting Road 14 in the prior art, but can be with Directly one unit 13 is irradiated successively using laser beam, therefore greatly reduces Operating Complexity, operability is improved.It is preferred that , in the present invention, the wavelength of the laser beam of use is less than or equal to 355nm, such as selection is 248nm, 355nm, and causes The uniformity of the hot spot 15 is less than or equal to 5%, so as to obtain more preferably peeling effect.As shown in fig. 6, first substrate Be stripped, second substrate 12 as light emitting diode (LED) chip with vertical structure substrate.
After the first substrate is peeled off, in addition to:Remove the gallium (Ga) produced after the first substrate desquamation.Wet method can be used Process is removed, and is related to solution gallium and the acid or alkali of reaction such as including HCL also possible.
Afterwards, as shown in fig. 7, etching the undoped gallium nitride layer, n type gallium nitride layer 111 is exposed.This is etched Journey can be whole face etching, or graphically etch, and whole face etching is used in the embodiment of the present invention.Treat n type gallium nitride layer After 111 expose, surface coarsening processing is carried out to the n type gallium nitride layer 111 exposed.For example with potassium hydroxide (KOH) Solution, sulfuric acid (H2SO4) solution etc., rough surface 16 is obtained, to improve light emission rate.
Finally, as shown in figure 8, forming N electrode 17 on n type gallium nitride layer 111 after surface coarsening, its material for example may be used To be nickel (Ni)/gold (Au), aluminium (Al)/titanium (Ti)/platinum (Pt)/gold (Au), chromium (Cr)/platinum (Pt)/gold (Au) etc..And be deposited blunt Change the n type gallium nitride layer 111 after layer 18, covering surface coarsening, the material of the passivation layer 18 for example can be silica.
Thus, light emitting diode (LED) chip with vertical structure manufacture of the invention is completed, and is less than or equal to 150 μm of square by using hot spot Laser beam is irradiated to the front-end architecture, to peel off first substrate.Compared with prior art, due to use hot spot compared with It is small, the damage to front-end architecture in stripping process is reduced, so as to be conducive to lifting the good of obtained light emitting diode (LED) chip with vertical structure Rate.In addition, the limitation being aligned when also eliminating stripping to Cutting Road, improves the operability of laser lift-off.
Obviously, those skilled in the art can carry out the essence of various changes and modification without departing from the present invention to the present invention God and scope.So, if these modifications and variations of the present invention belong to the scope of the claims in the present invention and its equivalent technologies Within, then the present invention is also intended to comprising including these changes and modification.
