Description

一种氮化物发光二极管的外延结构
技术领域
本发明涉及半导体光电器件领域,特别是一种氮化物发光二极管的外延结构。
背景技术
现今,发光二极管(LED),特别是氮化物发光二极管因其较高的发光效率,在普通照明领域已取得广泛的应用。因氮化物发光二极管的底层存在缺陷,在生长量子阱时缺陷延伸会形成V-pits,形成非辐射复合中心,导致电子容易通过V-pits的漏电通道泄漏并吸收量子阱发出的光,形成漏电和非辐射复合,降低发光效率、发光强度和ESD。
发明内容
本发明的目的是:提供一种氮化物发光二极管的外延结构,通过在多量子阱发光区域的V-pits上方填充钝化层/DBR/Al量子点的复合结构,使非掺杂的钝化层阻挡电子和空穴扩展至V-pits,降低非辐射复合,而DBR(分布布拉格反射层)则将量子阱发光的光反射,防止光被V-pits中的缺陷吸收,同时,Al量子点形成的光反射和表面等离激元,进一步引导光波导方向,通过多重垒加的效应提升氮化物发光二极管的发光效率。
一种氮化物发光二极管的外延结构,依次包括衬底,N型氮化物,多量子阱,V-pits,钝化层/DBR/Al量子点,P型氮化物,P型接触层以及DBR,其特征在于:多量子阱发光区的V-pits上方填充钝化层/DBR/Al量子点的复合结构,钝化层阻挡电子和空穴扩散至V-pits,降低V-pits中缺陷的非辐射复合,而DBR将量子阱发出的光反射,防止光被V-pits中的缺陷吸收,同时,Al量子点形成光反射和表面等离激元,进一步引导光波导方向。通过钝化层/DBR/Al量子点复合结构的多重垒加效应,结合P型半导体层一侧的DBR,使量子阱发出的光反射至衬底一侧,提升氮化物发光二极管的发光效率。
进一步地,所述复合结构中的钝化层包含氮化硅SiNx,氮化铝AlN,氮化硼BN,二氧化硅SiO2等材料,用于阻挡电子和空穴扩散至V-pits,降低V-pits中缺陷的非辐射复合。
进一步地,所述钝化层/DBR/Al量子点的钝化层厚度为1~100nm,DBR厚度为1~100nm,Al量子点大小为1~100nm。
进一步地,所述钝化层为非掺杂材料,背景载流子浓度为1E15~1E17cm-3,通过高电阻和高势垒的钝化层材料阻止电子和空穴扩展至V-pits,改善漏电和降低非辐射复合。
进一步地,所述V-pits的大小为50~500nm,密度为1E7~1E10cm-2
进一步地,所述衬底为蓝宝石、碳化硅、硅、氮化镓、氮化铝、氧化锌适合外延生长的衬底。
附图说明
图1为本发明实施例的氮化物发光二极管外延结构示意图。
图2为本发明实施例的氮化物发光二极管的光波导示意图。
图示说明:100:衬底,101:缓冲层,102:N型氮化物,103:多量子阱,104:V-pits,105:钝化层,106:DBR,107:Al量子点,108:P型氮化物,109:P型接触层,110:DBR。
具体实施方式
传统的氮化物发光二极管,因晶格失配和热失配在氮化物生长过程中会形成缺陷,生长多量子阱时该位错会延伸形成V-pits,而该V-pits形成非辐射复合中心,导致电子容易通过V-pits的漏电通道泄漏和吸收光,形成漏电和非辐射复合,降低发光强度和ESD。
为了解决V-pits内缺陷的吸光及形成非辐射复合中心的问题,本发明提出的一种氮化物发光二极管的外延结构,如图1所示,依次包括:衬底100,缓冲层101,N型氮化物102,多量子阱103,V-pits 104,钝化层(105)/DBR(106)/Al量子点(107)的复合结构,P型氮化物108,P型接触层109和DBR 110。
首先,使用金属有机化学气相沉积反应腔,在衬底上依次外延生长缓冲层、N型氮化物、多量子阱,并在量子阱发光区形成V-pits,密度为1E8cm-2,直径为200nm。然后,在V-pits上方填充无掺杂的钝化层BN层,厚度为10nm,沉积厚度为10nm的DBR和大小为20nm的Al量子点,形成钝化层BN/DBR/Al量子点的复合结构。钝化层BN背景载流子浓度为5E16cm-3,通过高电阻和高势垒的钝化层材料,阻挡电子和空穴扩散至V-pits,降低V-pits中缺陷的非辐射复合,改善漏电和降低非辐射复合。而DBR将量子阱发出的光反射,防止光被V-pits中的缺陷吸收,同时,Al量子点形成光反射和表面等离激元,进一步引导光波导方向。通过钝化层BN/DBR/Al量子点复合结构的多重垒加效应,结合P型一侧的DBR,使量子阱发出的光反射至衬底一侧,提升氮化物发光二极管的发光效率,如图2所示。
以上实施方式仅用于说明本发明,而并非用于限定本发明,本领域的技术人员,在不脱离本发明的精神和范围的情况下,可以对本发明做出各种修饰和变动,因此所有等同的技术方案也属于本发明的范畴,本发明的专利保护范围应视权利要求书范围限定。
