Using LED chip made by the embodiment of the present application compared with the LED chip using conventional method production, It has a clear superiority in terms of stability, detailed data such as following table, table 1 is the application LED chip and conventional LED chip stability contrast Table:
1 the application LED chip of table and conventional LED chip stability contrast table
Classification Aging 1000H Aging 2000H Aging 3000H
Embodiment transparency conducting layer OK OK OK
Convention transparent conductive layer OK NG NG
It can be seen that from upper table, LED chip provided by the embodiment of the present application can be by product aging survey in 3000 hours Examination, conventional LED chips can only by product aging test in 1000 hours, LED chip provided by the embodiment of the present application it is steady It is qualitative to be improved significantly.
Since LED chip itself can continue to generate heat in the operating condition, degradation described herein is in LED Constant current is persistently loaded on chip and carries out life test, examines the LED operation fever to the shadow in LED chip service life with this It rings.
In addition, it should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, it is practical when each layer metal is deposited, it is not set Heating temperature, that is, the temperature defaulted is exactly room temperature.The temperature of cavity can change the beam bombardment of mainly evaporator Source metal target, which generates heat, causes cavity temperature to increase, and cavity temperature is generally no more than 80 DEG C (in order to ensure photoresist Can normally remove), so being the cooling water for having led to 20 DEG C around cavity.The temperature mentioned in the embodiment of the present application only should Layer progress coating process cavity and cold-zone water reach temperature when relative equilibrium.The temperature is mainly (i.e. electric by the plating rate of metal The power of sub- speed), the classification of metal material, cooling water inflow are comprehensive determines.
It should also be noted that, LED core plate electrode provided by the embodiment of the present application and preparation method thereof and LED chip In, by Ti metal layer/Pt metal layer the outer surface of Al is coated completely in the way of be applicant by test infinitely And the technical solution obtained, the not prior art, nor conventional selection, have substantive distinguishing features outstanding and significantly into Step.
As can be seen from the above embodiments beneficial effect existing for the application is:
The first, LED core plate electrode and preparation method thereof and LED chip provided by the embodiment of the present application, in production LED core During plate electrode, after the vapor deposition that Al metal layer is completed on the surface of Cr metal layer, in Al metal layer away from Cr metal layer Ti metal layer/Pt the metal layer at least one period is deposited in surface, and the vapor deposition plating rate of the Ti metal layer is less than the Al The vapor deposition plating rate of metal layer, the vapor deposition plating rate of the Pt metal layer are greater than the vapor deposition plating rate of the Al metal layer.Al is being deposited After metal layer, photoresist is heated, that is, photoresist is in expansion state, under photoresist expansion state, in Al gold Ti metal layer is directly deposited in the surface for belonging to layer, so that it may coat the entire outer surface of Al metal layer completely, due to Ti metal layer Vapor deposition plating rate be less than the Al metal layer vapor deposition plating rate, temperature is also low, and photoresist is restored to original pattern at this time, at this time Evaporation metal is become the high Pt metal of plating rate higher (i.e. power is high), temperature is deposited, photoresist is allowed to be again at the shape of expansion State, such Pt metal can then coat the entire outer surface of Ti metal.In this way, the outer surface of Al metal layer includes that side wall is complete By Ti metallic cover, the outer surface of Ti metal is completely by Pt metallic cover, since Ti metal and Pt metal are inert metal, energy It is enough effectively to completely cut off Al metal layer and external environment, effectively avoid water oxygen or other substances and Al metal layer in external environment from sending out Biochemical reaction avoids LED chip electrode failure, and then LED chip is avoided to fail, to be conducive to promote LED core plate electrode And the stability of LED chip, and then be conducive to be promoted the service life of LED chip.
The second, LED core plate electrode and preparation method thereof and LED chip provided by the embodiment of the present application, using at least one Ti metal layer/Pt the metal layer in a period coats the outer surface of Al metal layer, Ti metal layer relative to Pt metal layer and Speech, it is cheap, therefore reduction production cost is also helped using the design of Ti metal layer/Pt metal layer.
