一种半导体发光元件
技术领域
本发明涉及半导体光电器件的技术领域,特别是涉及一种半导体发光元件。
背景技术
半导体发光元件具有可调范围广泛的波长范围,发光效率高,节能环保,可使用超过10万小时的长寿命、尺寸小、可设计性强等因素,已逐渐取代白炽灯和荧光灯,成长普通家庭照明的光源,并广泛应用新的场景,如户内高分辨率显示屏、户外显屏、手机电视背光照明、路灯、车灯、手电筒等应用领域。但是,传统氮化物半导体使用蓝宝石衬底生长,晶格失配和热失配大,导致较高的缺陷密度和极化效应,降低半导体发光元件的发光效率;同时,传统氮化物半导体的空穴离化效率远低于电子离化效率,导致空穴浓度低于电子浓度1个数量级以上,过量的电子会从多量子阱溢出至第二导电型半导体产生非辐射复合,空穴离化效率低,会导致第二导电型半导体的空穴难以有效注入多量子阱中,导致多量子阱的发光效率低。
发明内容

一种可能的技术方案中,所述导电型空穴注入层的Mg掺杂浓度大于1E19cm-3
一种可能的技术方案中,所述第二导电型半导体的Mg掺杂浓度大于1E18cm-3

与现有技术相比本发明的有益效果为:通过设置导电型空穴注入层并控制其C/H/O含量比例,提升电子的势垒高度和降低空穴的势垒高度,有效地阻挡电子溢流,提升空穴注入多量子阱的效率,从而提升半导体发光元件的辐射复合效率。
