Description

A kind of have LED of N-type AlInGaN contact layer and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of LED (light-emitting diode) with N-type AlInGaN contact layer and preparation method thereof, belong to photoelectron technical field.
Background technology
Earlier 1990s, be that the third generation wide bandgap semiconductor materials of representative obtains historical breakthrough with nitride, scientific research personnel successfully prepares blue green light and ultraviolet leds on gallium nitride material, makes LED illumination become possibility.1971, first gallium nitride based LED tube core emerged, 1994, and the blue light GaN base diode of high electron mobility has appearred in gallium nitride HEMT, and gallium nitride semiconductor Materials is very rapid.
The advantages such as semiconductor light-emitting-diode has that volume is little, sturdy and durable, luminescence band controllability is strong, the high and low thermal losses of light efficiency, light decay are little, energy-saving and environmental protection, the fields such as, short haul connection interconnected at total colouring, backlight, signal lamp, optical computer have a wide range of applications, and become the focus of current electron electric power area research gradually.Gallium nitride material has the series of advantages such as broad-band gap, high electron mobility, high heat conductance, high stability, therefore has a wide range of applications in short-wave long light-emitting device, light-detecting device and high power device and huge market prospects.
Usually, the LED p-type epitaxial region that comprises n-type substrate, be formed at the N-shaped epitaxial region on this substrate and be formed on N-shaped epitaxial region.For the ease of applying voltage to device, anode ohmic contact is formed in the p-type area (being generally the p-type epitaxial layer of exposure) of this device, and cathode ohmic contact is formed in the n-type area (the N-shaped epitaxial loayer of such as substrate or exposure) of this device.Because GaN dissociation pressure of nitrogen when high growth temperature is very high, be difficult to obtain large-sized GaN body monocrystal material, current most of GaN epitaxy device (as Sapphire Substrate) can only carry out heteroepitaxial growth on other substrates.
P type island region manufactures the requisite important step of GaN base LED component, and P-GaN structure and epitaxial growth method thereof are the keys improving GaN base LED light extraction efficiency.Owing to being difficult to form the good P type III-nitride material (such as GaN, AlGaN, InGaN, AlInGaN and AlInN) of conduction, in P-type layer the shortage of CURRENT DISTRIBUTION may become these materials form the limiting factor of LED performance.Therefore, the P-type layer surf zone as much as possible that we are desirably in exposure forms ohmic contact, thus directs current through region large as far as possible, this device active area.But, provide large positive contact to be harmful from some aspect to device performance.Usual expectation extracts light as much as possible from light-emitting diode.Because anode ohmic contact generally includes metal level, the light produced in LED active area partly can absorb in ohmic contact, reduces total luminous efficiency of this device.In some devices, the P-type layer that we are desirably in exposure forms reflective metal layer, make usually to be reflected back toward in auto levelizer from the light that device is escaped through P-type layer, be extracted through substrate.But such as aluminium is not formed with the high reflecting metal of silver and contacts with the good ohmic of P type nitride material.Therefore, usually between P type nitride layer and reflector, provide ohmic contact, the absorption reduced in ohmic contact becomes the problem be concerned about in these devices.Therefore, the method improved existing ohmic contact structure and form ohmic contact structure on P type nitride material is needed.
At present, the specific contact resistivity of the P-GaN of domestic main LED producer is all only 10 -2ohmcm 2the order of magnitude, this is because P-GaN hole concentration is too low and lack caused by the sufficiently high metal of work function, just can form good ohmic contact when only having P type GaN heavily doped.2000, document " JangJS; ParkSJ; SeongTYetal.LowresistanceandthermallystablePt/RuOhmiccon tactstop-typeGaN [J] .PhysicaStatusSolidi (A) AppliedResearch; 2000; 180 (1): 103-107 " relate to and adopts Pt/Ru and P-GaN contact, obtains low-resistance 2.2 × 10 through thermal annealing -6ohmcm 2.The people such as Jin-KuoHo make contacting metal with Ni/Au, anneal 500 DEG C, obtain 4 × 10 under oxygen atmosphere -6ohmcm 2contact gear ratio resistance (see document HoJK, JongCS, HuangCNetal.Low-resistanceohmiccontactstop-typeGaNachiev edbytheoxidationofNi/Aufilms [J] .Appl.Phys.Lett., 1999,86 (8): 4491-4497).The people such as Kumakura insert the strain InGaN contact layer of one deck 2nm between Pd/Au and P-GaN, quite low contact resistivity is just obtained (see document KumakuraK without any process, MakimotoT, KobayashiN.Kobayashi.Low-resistancenonalloyedohmiccontac ttoP-typeGaNusingstrainedInGaNcontactlayer [J] .Appl.Phys.Lett.2001,79 (16): 2588-2590).
For how to improve ohmic contact, there are some patent documentations both at home and abroad.Chinese patent literature CN102324455A disclosed " the ultra-thin ohmic contact and forming method thereof for P type nitride-based light emitting device ", provide a kind of semiconductor-based light-emitting device (LED), the metal ohmic contact in P type nitride layer and this p-type nitride layer can be comprised.This metal ohmic contact average thickness is about less than ohmic contact resistance (10 -3ohmcm 2).Deposition rate is about per second arrive under the measurement wavelength of about 350nm, be enough to provide the normalized transmissivity being about greater than 98%, to be provided for the metal level with the first average thickness of metal ohmic contact, and it is monitored to accompany the thickness of this metal level on sheet to indicate.If this instruction is higher than predetermined instruction threshold value, then further with subsequent time intervals or subsequent rate plated metal to increase average thickness.But the method is its thickness wayward in deposition process.
Chinese patent literature CN101183642A disclosed " a kind of preparation method of P-GaN low-resistance Ohm contact ", P-GaN structure grows the P-InGaN/P-AlGaN superlattice layer in 5 cycles, on grow P-InGaN cap rock, result shows that adopting p-InGaN/p-AlGaN superlattice to make top layer can obtain lower specific contact resistivity.In these superlattice there is strain compensation effect in P-InGaN and P-AlGaN, can improve material surface quality, improve the quality of P-GaN film, but hole concentration is comparatively difficult to ensure card.
Surface texture technology is the geometric figure changing GaN and air contact surfaces, improves electronic device luminous efficiency from another point of view.Disclosed in Chinese patent literature CN101521258A " a kind of method improving LED external quantum efficiency ", this method provide a kind of method of roughening, be the Mg doping content by improving surperficial P type GaN, thus reach the object of surface coarsening.But the method uses the method for heavily doped Mg to carry out alligatoring can make reative cell there is the memory effect of Mg atom, shortens the maintenance period of MOCVD device, be unfavorable for the stability of producing.
Chinese patent literature CN102789976A disclosed " a kind of manufacture method of GaN base LED chip ", comprises step: provide a GaN base LED; Clean described GaN base LED, and be dried; At described epitaxial wafer P-GaN deposited on silicon one gallium room inducing layer; Aforementioned GaN base LED is annealed; Remove the gallium room inducing layer on described GaN base LED surface; GaN base LED through above process makes P type ohmic contact layer and P, N electrode.Compared with conventional LED chips manufacture method, the low 0.2V of the chip voltage that the method process obtains, brightness does not have difference.
