The present patent application is that Chinese patent application No. 01143304.3, is called dividing an application of " GaN base III-V group-III nitride light-emitting diode and manufacture method thereof ".
Technical field
The present invention relates to light emitting semiconductor device with and manufacture method, be particularly related to GaN base III-V group-III nitride luminescent device and manufacture method thereof more.
Background technology
Compound semiconductor based light-emitting diode or the laser diode that can launch short-wavelength visible light are well-known.Specifically, the luminescent device (light-emitting diode) or the laser diode that adopt the III group-III nitride semiconductor to make are subjected to suitable attention, because III family semiconductor is a kind of direct transition section bar material (direct band gap material) of launching blue light by the compound of electronics and hole efficiently.
Referring to Fig. 1, the conventional light-emitting diode based on GaN base III-V group-III nitride is included in the n type GaN layer 12 on the sapphire substrate 10.N type GaN layer 12 is divided into first and second region R 1 and the R2.First area R1 has the width wideer than second area R2, and it is not subjected to etched influence after forming.Simultaneously, second area R2 is thinner than first area R1, because it is subjected to etched influence after forming.As a result, between first and second region R 1 of n type GaN layer 12 and R2, there is a step.Order forms the p type electrode 20 of active layer 16, p type GaN layer 18 and printing opacity on the first area R1 in n type GaN layer 12.Be used at the bonding pad layer 22 of packaging technology.N type electrode 14 is formed among the second area R2 of n type GaN layer 12.
The GaN base III-V group-III nitride laser diode of routine shown in Figure 2, wherein the n type is set in the face of identical direction with p type electrode, and forms a convex ridge in the zone that forms p type electrode.In this semiconductor laser diode, especially with reference to Fig. 2, the n type GaN layer 12 that is divided into first and second region R 1 and R2 is formed on the sapphire substrate 10.First area R1 is wideer and thicker than second area R2, thereby has a step between first and second region R 1 and R2.N type electrode 14 is formed among the second area R2 of n type GaN layer 12.Order forms n type AlGaN/GaN layer 24, n type GaN layer 26 and as the InGaN layer 28 of active layer, its refractive index increases gradually in the direction that makes progress on the first area R1 of n type GaN layer 12.Order forms p type GaN layer 30, p type AlGaN/GaN layer 32 and p type GaN type 36 on InGaN layer 28, and its refractive index reduces on the direction that makes progress gradually.The middle part of p type AlGaN/GaN layer 32 has a convex ridge (or rib), and p type GaN type 36 is formed on the convex ridge of p type AlGaN/GaN layer 32.The whole surface coverage of p type AlGaN/GaN layer 32 has passivation layer 34.At this, passivation layer 34 extends in the p type GaN type 36, makes current threshold reduce.That is, passivation layer 34 covers two edges of p type GaN type 36.P type electrode 38 is formed on the passivation layer 34, contacts with layer 34 upper surface that is covered that are not passivated of p type GaN type 36.
For the light-emitting diode or the laser diode based on GaN base III-V group-III nitride of routine, wherein the n type is set in the face of identical direction with p type electrode, should carry out adhesion process with two lines on identical plane in packaging technology.Therefore, packaging technology is complicated and increases time loss.N type electrode is formed in the dark erosion zone, makes between n type and p type electrode, to have big step, thus the mortality of increase packaging technology.Shown in reference Fig. 1 and 2, for the structure of the second area R2 of n type GaN layer 12, for the light-emitting diode of Fig. 1, after forming p type electrode 20 or p type GaN layer 18, n type GaN layer 12 is etched to form second area R2.In other words,, need extra photoetching treatment, thereby increase the manufacturing time of luminescent device in order on second area R2, to form n type electrode 14.
Fig. 3 illustrates another kind of conventional GaN base III-V group-III nitride laser diode, and wherein n type electrode and p type electrode are set in the face of opposite direction, and an active layer is arranged between them.Order forms n type GaN layer 12, n type AlGaN/GaN layer 24, n type GaN layer 26, InGaN layer 28, p type GaN layer 30, p type AlGaN/GaN layer 32 and p type GaN type 36, passivation layer 34 and p type electrode 38 as active layer on silicon nitride (SiC) substrate 10a (perhaps CaCl2 (GaN) substrate).N type electrode 14a is formed on the bottom of SiC substrate 10a.
Usually, it is closely related to be used for the current threshold of Laser emission and laser action mode stability and temperature in semiconductor laser diode, and along with temperature all Quantum Properties variation that raise.Therefore, need to get rid of the heat that produces in the Laser emission process in active layer, temperature raises in laser diode to avoid.For the GaN base III-V group-III nitride laser diode of routine, this substrate has low-down thermal conductivity (about 0.5W/CmK for sapphire), discharges by this convex ridge thereby heat is most of.But the heat of discharging by convex ridge is restricted, thereby can not prevent effectively that the temperature in the laser diode from raising, thereby has reduced the performance of this device.
For the conventional semiconductor laser diode shown in Fig. 2, by adopting the flip-chip adhering technique to distribute the heat that in active layer, produces, as shown in Figure 4.
Especially, with reference to Fig. 4, the inverted conventional GaN base III-V group-III nitride laser diode shown in the reference number A presentation graphs 2.Reference number 40 expression undersettings (submount), reference number 42a and 42b represent pad layer (pad layer), and reference number 40a and 40b represent to be connected respectively to the n type electrode 14 of semiconductor laser diode A and first and second heat-conducting layers of p type electrode 38.Reference symbol M represents corresponding to being layered in a Fig. 2 between n type GaN layer 12 and the p type electrode 38 and a laminate materials layer of 3 material layer 24 to 34.
As indicated above, can improve radiating efficiency by the radiating subassembly that semiconductor laser diode is adhered to a separation.But bonding between laser diode and the radiating subassembly increased the disposed of in its entirety time.In addition, this adhesion process needs accurately aliging between semiconductor laser diode and the radiating subassembly, thereby is more prone to occur failure scenarios, thereby reduces cost rate.
For example, suppose that rate of finished products is 70%, then each wafer approximately obtains 4000 laser diodes.For about 20 hours of the bonding required bonding time of the flip-chip of all laser diodes (each needs 0.3 minute approximately).
