Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to group iii nitride semiconductor field of photoelectric material, in particular to a kind of to contain strain modulated structure
InGaN/GaN multi-quantum pit structure.
Background technique
The invention of Quantum Well is the important breakthrough in semiconductor material development history with milestone significance.Quantum Well concept
It proposes to start from the silent double heterojunction proposed of Alfero husbands in 1963 and Crow, then, 1970, using this double-heterostructure,
The semiconductor laser that First room temperature continuously emits comes out.The concept for the superlattices that the same year, Jiang Qi and Zhu Zhaoxiang are proposed, they
If imagined with two kinds of good materials of Lattice Matching alternately growth periodicity structure, the thickness of every layer material 100nm with
Under, then electronics will generate oscillation along the movement of the direction of growth, can be used for manufacturing microwave device.1972, Charles H.
Henry is when studying the light limiting structure of double heterojunction, it is appreciated that double heterojunction is also carrier limiting structure simultaneously, by reason
It is found by calculating, when the active layer thickness of double-heterostructure is reduced to 100nm or less, quantum limitation effect can be generated.1973
Year, W. Wiegmann has prepared quantum well structure using molecular beam epitaxy technique for the first time.1975, AT&T Labs's preparation
First quantum-well laser is gone out.Later, quantum well structure obtains in the opto-electronic devices such as semiconductor laser, LED, detector
It obtained and was widely applied.
The most typical application of quantum well structure is exactly the active area as semiconductor laser and LED.Wherein InGaN/GaN
Newcomer of the multiple quantum wells as Quantum Well family, obtains immense success in GaN base blue green light LED and laser, is generation
Boundary's illumination and display market bring revolutionary variation.But InGaN/GaN Quantum Well itself works as hair there is also intrinsic limitation
When optical wavelength is mobile to long wave length direction, with the raising of In component, the lattice mismatch between InGaN well layer and GaN barrier layer is fast
Speed increases, and compressive strain improves rapidly in InGaN well layer, leads to the appearance strong polarity effect in well layer, and generate a large amount of mismatch bits
It is wrong.Strong polarity effect tilts Quantum Well energy band, and electronics is spatially separating with hole wave functions, leads to radiation recombination efficiency substantially
Degree reduces, and a large amount of misfit dislocations mean a large amount of non-radiative recombination center.Strong polarity effect and high dislocation density are greatly
The raising of InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells internal quantum efficiency is limited, the promotion of GaN base LED and laser performance is also limited.
It is communicated up in addition, the stress in quantum well layer can penetrate GaN barrier layer, causes the internal stress in InGaN well layer successively to increase, lead
Polarity effect and dislocation density is caused to further increase.As can be seen that the problem of InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells with strain
It is related, problem above is solved, key, which is that, is modulated the strain in InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells.
Summary of the invention
The shortcomings that present invention is for strong polarity effect in InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells and high defect concentration, it is to be solved
Technical problem are as follows: a kind of InGaN/GaN multi-quantum pit structure containing strain modulated structure is provided, to promote GaN base blue green light
LED and efficiency of laser provide a kind of novel active area structure.
In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problem, the technical solution adopted by the present invention are as follows: a kind of to contain strain modulated structure
InGaN/GaN multi-quantum pit structure, including bottom barrier layer, top barrier layer, multiple InGaN quantum between bottom barrier layer and top barrier layer
Well layer and the intermediate barrier layer being arranged between each InGaN quantum well layer further include close to the InGaN quantum well layer and being arranged
The first strain reducing layer thereunder, and close to the InGaN quantum well layer and be disposed there above second strain subtract
Few layer, first strain reducing layer and the second strain reducing layer are the InGaN layer that In component is lower than 10%, the intermediate barrier layer
Including strain compensation layer, the strain compensation layer is that lattice constant is less than the bottom barrier layer and pushes up the barrier layer of barrier layer.
The intermediate barrier layer further includes close to barrier layer on the strain compensation layer and the GaN that is located above and below it
With barrier layer under GaN.
The material of strain compensation layer is any one in tri- kinds of materials of AlN, AlGaN and AlGaInN, or any several
Combination.
The top barrier layer and bottom barrier layer are GaN barrier layer.
The strain compensation layer that the top barrier layer and bottom barrier layer include GaN barrier layer and be arranged among GaN barrier layer.
The emission wavelength of the InGaN/GaN multi-quantum pit structure containing strain modulated structure is blue green light to green-yellow light
Any wavelength in wavelength band.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following beneficial effects:
(1) internal strain for reducing InGaN Quantum Well weakens piezoelectric polarization effect: the first strain reducing layer and the second strain
Reducing layer is the InGaN layer that In component is lower than 10%, and lattice constant is between InGaN quantum well layer and GaN barrier layer, energy
Enough lattice mismatches effectively between buffering InGaN well layer and GaN barrier layer, to reduce the internal strain of InGaN quantum well layer.With
The reduction of internal strain, by strain caused by piezoelectric polarization effect also weaken therewith;
(2) misfit dislocation density that trap builds interface is reduced: since the first strain reducing layer and the second strain reducing layer buffer
Lattice mismatch between well layer and barrier layer, therefore the misfit dislocation density that trap builds interface is significantly reduced;
(3) eliminate the stress accumulation in InGaN/GaN multi-quantum pit structure: strain compensating structure is among barrier layer, due to
Strain compensation layer lattice constant is less than GaN barrier layer, is in tensile strain state, the strain that can be effectively isolated between each layer Quantum Well
Coupling, prevents stress to be communicated up, eliminates the stress accumulation of multi-quantum pit structure.
