The invention is described in further detail below with reference to the drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not limiting thereof. It should be further noted that, for convenience of description, only some, but not all of the structures related to the present invention are shown in the drawings.
Currently, there are two main methods for monolithic integration of an LED and a HEMT: the method comprises the steps of firstly epitaxially growing an LED (or HEMT) structure, then selectively etching the epitaxial structure to a GaN buffer layer or a substrate layer, and epitaxially growing the HEMT (or LED) structure on the GaN buffer layer or the substrate in the etched area, thereby realizing a HEMT-LED monolithic integrated structure in transverse arrangement; the method needs multiple etching and secondary epitaxy, the preparation process is complex, and the side wall of the HEMT (or the LED) is easily damaged in the secondary epitaxy process of the HEMT (or the LED), so that the performance of the integrated device is affected. Another method is to stack and grow HEMT and LED structure (HEMT under, LED over, or LED under, HEMT over), form HEMT and LED two areas by etching, deposit LED electrode and HEMT electrode separately, LED electrode and HEMT electrode connect through the way of the metal lead wire; however, this method requires the deposition of a thicker electron transport layer (typically in the range of 500-5 um) for the LED structure, and also requires the preparation of more complex metal leads to achieve the interconnection of the two devices.
Based on the above-mentioned related art defect, the present application provides a monolithic integrated device of HEMT and LED, including:
a substrate;
A HEMT laminated structure and an LED laminated structure arranged on one side of the substrate;
the HEMT laminated structure comprises a channel layer and a barrier layer which are sequentially laminated on the surface of a substrate, wherein a two-dimensional electron gas layer is formed between the channel layer and the barrier layer; the LED laminated structure comprises an electron transport layer, and the two-dimensional electron gas layer is multiplexed into at least part of the electron transport layer.
In the technical scheme, electrons are provided for the LED laminated structure by utilizing the two-dimensional electron gas layer, so that the thickness of the electron transmission layer in the LED laminated structure is reduced or the electron transmission layer is not arranged any more, the preparation process of the monolithic integrated device is simplified, and the preparation difficulty of the monolithic integrated device is reduced.
The foregoing is the core idea of the present invention, and the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any inventive effort are intended to fall within the scope of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a monolithic integrated device of HEMT and LED according to the present invention, where the monolithic integrated device includes: a substrate 1, a HEMT laminated structure 2 and an LED laminated structure 3 provided on one side of the substrate 1.
The substrate 1 may be sapphire (Al 2 O 3 ) A substrate, a silicon (Si) substrate, a silicon carbide (SiC) substrate, a GaN substrate, or the like, but is not limited thereto; the film layers grown on the surface of the substrate 1 are epitaxial layers.
The HEMT stack structure 2 includes a channel layer 20 and a barrier layer 21 stacked in this order on the surface of the substrate 1, with a two-dimensional electron gas layer 22 formed between the channel layer 20 and the barrier layer 21. The LED stack 3 includes an electron transport layer 30, and the two-dimensional electron gas layer 22 is multiplexed into at least part of the electron transport layer 30. Specifically, the HEMT laminated structure 2 can be understood as a HEMT device in a monolithically integrated device, the LED laminated structure 3 can be understood as an LED device in a monolithically integrated device, and the HEMT laminated structure 2 drives the LED laminated structure 3 to emit light; the LED laminated structure 3 can be a common LED laminated structure, or a Micro-LED laminated structure or a Mini-LED laminated structure.
The HEMT stack structure 2 includes a channel layer 20 and a barrier layer 21, the channel layer 20 being located on the surface of the substrate 1, the barrier layer 21 being located on a side surface of the channel layer 20 facing away from the barrier layer 21. In this arrangement, since the channel layer 20 is located below the barrier layer 21, a two-dimensional electron gas layer 22 is formed between the channel layer 20 and the barrier layer 21. It should be noted that the two-dimensional electron gas layer 22 refers to a thin layer with high-speed movement and high concentration of electrons generated at the heterojunction between different group III nitrides, and the area of the two-dimensional electron gas layer 22 has lower resistivity and better electron transmission condition.
Alternatively, the channel layer 20 may be made of GaN material, and the barrier layer 21 may be made of aluminum gallium nitride (AlGaN) material, but is not limited thereto. The channel layer 20 and the barrier layer 21 are selected from different group III nitrides. The thickness of the channel layer 20 may be 300 to 1000nm, and the thickness of the barrier layer 21 may be 20 to 30nm, but is not limited thereto.
Further, with continued reference to fig. 1, the LED stack structure 3 may be disposed on a side of the barrier layer 21 away from the channel layer 20, where a surface of the barrier layer 21 on a side away from the channel layer 20 may be defined as a surface of the barrier layer 21, and the LED stack structure 3 may be located in a partial area of the surface of the barrier layer 21, so as to implement monolithic integration of the HEMT stack structure 2 and the LED stack structure 3, and drive the LED with the LEMT stack structure, thereby simplifying a driving circuit of the device and improving reliability of device control.
In addition, the LED stacked structure 3 includes an electron transport layer 30, and the electron transport layer 30 is used for providing electrons, which is worth mentioning that in the embodiment of the present invention, the two-dimensional electron gas layer 22 may be multiplexed into at least part of the electron transport layer 30, and the two-dimensional electron gas layer 22 is used for providing electrons for the LED stacked structure 3. Therefore, the thickness of the electron transport layer 30 in the LED laminated structure 3 can be set thinner, or the electron transport layer 30 can be omitted, so that the preparation process of the monolithic integrated device is simplified, the preparation difficulty of the device is reduced, meanwhile, the epitaxial growth time of the LED laminated structure 3 can be reduced, the consumption of raw materials is reduced, and the preparation cost of the device is reduced.
Optionally, in the embodiment shown in fig. 1, a buffer layer 4 may be further disposed between the substrate 1 and the channel layer 20, where the buffer layer 4 may reduce the defect density in the epitaxial layer and improve the crystal quality of the epitaxial layer. For example, in an alternative embodiment, the buffer layer 4 may be high-resistance GaN, but is not limited thereto, and the thickness of the buffer layer 4 may be controlled within a range of 100-500 nm. Of course, in other possible embodiments, direct contact between the substrate 1 and the channel layer 20 may be possible, in which case the substrate 1 may be made of a semi-insulating or high-resistance material.
Optionally, the monolithically integrated device of HEMT and LED provided in the embodiments of the present application may further include any film layer structure known to those skilled in the art, which is not limited in this application. Illustratively, in other embodiments not shown, an AlN layer or the like is also included between the channel layer and the barrier layer to improve HEMT performance.
The embodiment provides a monolithic integrated device integrating a HEMT and an LED, the monolithic integrated device comprising: the substrate, the HEMT laminated structure and the LED laminated structure, the HEMT laminated structure comprises a channel layer and a barrier layer which are laminated on the surface of the substrate in sequence, a two-dimensional electron gas layer is formed between the channel layer and the barrier layer, the two-dimensional electron gas layer is used as at least one part of an electron transmission layer in the LED laminated structure, electrons are provided for the LED laminated structure by utilizing the two-dimensional electron gas layer, the thickness of the electron transmission layer in the LED laminated structure is reduced or the electron transmission layer is not arranged any more, and therefore the preparation process of the monolithic integrated device is simplified, and the preparation difficulty of the monolithic integrated device is reduced.
Alternatively, with continued reference to fig. 1, in a possible embodiment, the HEMT stack structure 2 may further comprise a first electrode 23, the first electrode 23 being located on the side of the LED stack structure 3 facing away from the barrier layer 21, the first electrode 23 forming an ohmic contact with the upper epitaxial layer in the LED stack structure 3, the first electrode 23 multiplexing as an anode of the LED stack structure 3.
Specifically, the first electrode 23 is in contact with a side surface of the LED stack structure 3 facing away from the two-dimensional electron gas layer 22, and the first electrode 23 may serve as a drain (or source) of the HEMT stack structure 2, that is, the anode of the LED stack structure 3 and the drain (or source) of the HEMT stack structure 2 share one electrode. Under the arrangement mode, the LED laminated structure 3 and the HEMT laminated structure 2 are communicated without additionally arranging metal leads, and the LED laminated structure 3 and the HEMT laminated structure 2 in the monolithic integrated device can be electrically connected without the metal leads, so that the preparation process difficulty of the monolithic integrated device is further reduced, the integration level is improved, and the whole volume of the device is reduced.
Further, the first electrode 23 may be made of a metal conductive material such as nickel (Ni), platinum (Pt), titanium (Ti), or aluminum (Al), or a transparent conductive material such as Indium Tin Oxide (ITO), but is not limited thereto. The transparent conductive material is used for preparing the first electrode 23, so that the light transmittance of the first electrode 23 can be improved, and the luminous efficiency of the LED can be ensured.
It is understood that any film layer structure known to those skilled in the art may be further included in the HEMT stack structure 2 and the LED stack structure 3, which is not limited in this embodiment.
Illustratively, in a possible embodiment, the LED stacked structure 3 may further include an active layer 31 and a hole transport layer 32 stacked along a plane direction perpendicular to the substrate 1, where the active layer 31 is located on a surface of a side of the barrier layer 21 facing away from the channel layer 20, and the hole transport layer 32 is located on a side of the active layer 31 facing away from the barrier layer 21. The HEMT stack structure 2 further includes a second electrode 24 and a gate electrode 25, both the second electrode 24 and the gate electrode 25 being located on a side of the barrier layer 21 facing away from the channel layer 20; the orthographic projection of the second electrode 24 and the grid electrode 25 on the plane of the substrate 1 is not overlapped with the orthographic projection of the LED laminated structure 3 on the plane of the substrate 1, and the second electrode 24 is multiplexed as the cathode of the LED laminated structure 3.
Further, the active layer 31 may be an InGaN/GaN quantum well active layer, but is not limited thereto; the hole transport layer 32 may be a p-type GaN layer, but is not limited thereto, and may be any film layer capable of providing holes. In this embodiment, the two-dimensional electron gas layer 22 can be multiplexed into all the electron transport layers 30 of the LED stacked structure 3, i.e. no electron transport layer 30 is disposed in the LED stacked structure 3, electrons required for LED light emission are provided by the two-dimensional electron gas layer 22, and electrons in the two-dimensional electron gas layer 22 and holes in the hole transport layer 32 are combined in the active layer 31 and emit light.
Alternatively, the thickness of the active layer 31 and the hole transport layer 32 in the LED stack structure 3 is not limited in the present invention, and may be set by those skilled in the art according to actual circumstances. For example, in an alternative embodiment, the active layer 31 may be a 1-10 period InGaN/GaN quantum well active layer, where the InGaN layer has a thickness in the range of 2-3 nm and the GaN layer has a thickness in the range of 8-15 nm; the thickness of the hole transport layer 32 is in the range of 100 to 500nm, but is not limited thereto.
Further, with continued reference to fig. 1, the HEMT stack structure 2 further includes a second electrode 24 and a gate 25, where the second electrode 24 may be the source (or drain) of the HEMT device, i.e., when the first electrode 23 is the source, the second electrode 24 is the drain; when the first electrode 23 is a drain electrode, the second electrode 24 is a source electrode. The second electrode 24 and the gate electrode 25 may be disposed on a side of the barrier layer 21 facing away from the channel layer 20, and projections of the second electrode 24 and the gate electrode 25 do not overlap with projections of the LED stack structure 3 in a thickness direction of the monolithically integrated device. In other words, the second electrode 24 and the gate electrode 25 are both located in a region on the surface of the barrier layer 21 where the active layer 31 is not provided. Specifically, the second electrode 24 and the gate electrode 25 may be made of a metal conductive material or a transparent conductive material, but are not limited thereto, and the description thereof is omitted in this embodiment.
Since the second electrode 24 of the HEMT stack structure 2 is directly in contact with the two-dimensional electron gas layer 22, the two-dimensional electron gas layer 22 is directly in contact with the active layer 31 of the LED stack structure 3, and the second electrode 24 can be directly multiplexed as the cathode of the LED device. The operation of a monolithically integrated device is generally described as follows: the gate 25 of the HEMT device receives a gate control signal, and when the gate control signal is an active enable signal, the HEMT device is in an on state, and a voltage applied to the source may be transferred to the drain, or a voltage applied to the drain (i.e., the cathode of the LED device) may be transferred to the source (i.e., the anode of the LED device). At this time, electrons in the two-dimensional electron gas layer 22 formed between the channel layer 20 and the barrier layer 21 may be transferred to the active layer 31 of the LED device (the moving direction of the electrons in the two-dimensional electron gas layer 22 is indicated by a dotted arrow in the drawing), holes in the hole transport layer 32 of the LED device may be transferred to the active layer 31, and the holes and electrons are recombined in the active layer 31 to emit light.
In this embodiment, the cathode of the LED lamination structure 3 and the source (or drain) of the HEMT lamination structure 2 share one electrode, so that no additional metal lead is required, and the manufacturing difficulty of the monolithically integrated device can be further reduced.
Alternatively, the pattern shape of each electrode of the HEMT stacked structure 2 is not limited, and a person skilled in the art may set the pattern shape according to actual needs, and fig. 2 and 3 are schematic top view structures of the electrodes provided by the present invention, and the gate 25, the first electrode 23 (e.g., drain) and the second electrode 24 (e.g., source) of the HEMT stacked structure 2 may be any shape in fig. 2 or 3, but are not limited thereto.
In other not shown embodiments, a stress relief layer (not shown in the figure), such as an InGaN/GaN superlattice stress relief layer, may be further provided between the electron transport layer 30 and/or the hole transport layer 32 and the active layer 31 in the LED stack structure 3, but is not limited thereto.
Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of another monolithic integrated device of HEMT and LED according to the present invention. For the same technical content as in the embodiment shown in fig. 1, the description of this embodiment is omitted; in the present embodiment, the electron transport layer 30 includes a first electron transport layer 301 and a second electron transport layer 302; the LED stack structure 3 further includes an active layer 31 and a hole transport layer 32 stacked in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the substrate 1, the active layer 31 being located between the second electron transport layer 30 and the hole transport layer 32.
The two-dimensional electron gas layer 22 is multiplexed into the first electron transport layer 301, that is, in this embodiment, the two-dimensional electron gas layer 22 may be multiplexed into a part of the electron transport layer 30 (i.e., the first electron transport layer 301) of the LED stack structure 3, while the electron transport layer 30 (i.e., the second electron transport layer 302) having a certain thickness is retained in the LED stack structure 3. The second electron transport layer 302 is located on a surface of the barrier layer 21 facing away from the channel layer 20, and the second electron transport layer 302 may be an n-type GaN layer, but is not limited thereto, and may be any film layer capable of providing electrons.
In this arrangement, the second electron transport layer 302 is located in a partial region of the surface of the barrier layer 21. The active layer 31 is located at a side of the second electron transport layer 302 facing away from the channel layer 20, the hole transport layer 32 is located at a side of the active layer 31 facing away from the second electron transport layer 302, and the hole transport layer 32 is disposed between the active layer 31 and the first electrode 23. The two-dimensional electron gas layer 22 and the second electron transport layer 302 simultaneously provide electrons for the active layer 31, so as to ensure sufficient supply of electrons. The active layer 31 and the hole transport layer 32 are the same as those in the above embodiments, and will not be described here again.
The second electron transport layer 302 may not only function to provide electrons, but also provide a certain growth platform for the growth of the active layer 31, and improve the growth quality of the active layer 31.
It should be noted that, unlike the related art, in this embodiment, since the second electron transporting layer 302 is not the only source of electrons, a thicker second electron transporting layer 302 is not required. The second electron transport layer 302 may be provided thinner to ensure that the monolithic integrated device has a thinner overall thickness.
It is understood that the thickness of the second electron transport layer 302 is not limited in this embodiment, and may be set by those skilled in the art according to practical situations.
