Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of photoelectricity, in particular to a light-emitting diode epitaxial wafer, a preparation method thereof and an LED.
Background
Currently, silicon substrates have become one of the main choice substrates for epitaxial growth of group III nitrides. The advantages of large size, low cost and mature preparation process of the silicon substrate lead the III-nitride material based on the growth of the silicon substrate to have excellent application prospect, and can be widely applied to application scenes such as power electronics, radio frequency electronics, light-emitting devices and the like. However, both aluminum nitride (AlN) and gallium nitride (GaN) materials have huge lattice mismatch and thermal mismatch with the silicon substrate, and the lattice mismatch causes a large number of threading dislocations in the group III nitride epitaxial layer, and these high-density dislocations may be represented as leakage channels, non-radiative recombination centers and carrier traps in the materials, and may affect the component uniformity of the ternary alloy, and may ultimately have many adverse effects on electronic devices and optoelectronic devices. The thermal mismatch makes the surface of the III-nitride epitaxial layer easily crack in the process of cooling, and the device preparation process cannot be performed. In particular, si and Ga generate a back-melting reaction at high temperature, gaN cannot be grown directly on a Si substrate, and it is currently most widely accepted to use AlN as a transition layer between Si and GaN, so that GaN crystal quality is inevitably affected by crystal quality of underlying AlN. In summary, for the epitaxial group III nitride material on the silicon substrate, both AlN, alGaN and GaN, it is necessary to obtain a high quality silicon substrate AlN film first, resulting in a higher defect density in the GaN epitaxial layer and a poor crystal quality.
In the prior art, there are studies reporting that a layer of alumina is inserted between a silicon substrate and AlN to try to improve the crystal quality of AlN and GaN. However, the method has very limited effect on improving the crystal quality, mainly because the alumina layer is in a polycrystalline or amorphous state, and the crystal lattice structure and the orientation of the surface of different areas of the alumina layer are different, and the differences are transmitted into the nucleation layer, so that the effect of improving the crystal orientation of the nucleation layer by the alumina layer is greatly reduced.
