BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a nitride semiconductor light emitting device, and more particularly, to a nitride semiconductor light emitting device and a method of manufacturing the same to improve electrostatic discharge (ESD) characteristics of a GaN based nitride light emitting device.

GaN-based light emitting devices are generally known to have poor electrostatic properties compared to other compound light emitting devices. This is because a GaN light emitting device is formed on a sapphire substrate having a large lattice mismatch, and thus many crystal defects are formed in the GaN thin film due to a large lattice mismatch (16%) between the substrate and the grown thin film.

These crystal defects increase the leakage current of the device and when the external static electricity enters, the active layer of the light emitting device having many crystal defects is destroyed by the strong field. In general, it is known that crystal defects of about 10 10 to 10 12 / cm 2 exist in the GaN thin film.

The electrostatic breakdown characteristics of the light emitting device are very important in relation to the application range of the GaN light emitting device. In particular, the design of the device to withstand the static electricity generated from the equipment and the operator when packaging the light emitting device is a very important variable to improve the yield of the final device.

In particular, since the GaN-based light emitting device has been applied to a condition that is poor in outdoor signage and automotive lighting environment in recent years, electrostatic properties are considered more important. In general, ESD of conventional GaN light emitting devices can withstand up to thousands of volts in the forward direction under human body mode (HBM), but it is difficult to withstand hundreds of volts in the reverse direction.

The reason for this is that as mentioned earlier, the crystal defect of the device is the main reason, and the electrode design of the device is also very important. In particular, GaN light emitting device adopts sapphire substrate, which is a non-conductor, so that N-electrode and P-electrode are formed on the same surface. Worse. In order to improve these ESD characteristics, the conventional method is approaching from the device side. In some cases, a protection diode (generally a zener diode) is connected in reverse with the GaN light emitting device to prevent high voltage ESD from being injected into the GaN device in reverse, and a large capacitor is connected in parallel with the GaN light emitting device. Another method is to allow high voltage to flow through the capacitor.

However, adding additional ESD protection devices external to the device as described above is not desirable in terms of cost and yield. The most preferable method is to improve the ESD characteristics of the light emitting device itself by improving the thin film characteristics or the structure of the light emitting device. For this purpose, it is desirable to increase the quality of the GaN thin film fundamentally, but this is limited. To date, there is not much data on how to grow thin films to improve the ESD characteristics of GaN devices.

As shown in the figure, the nitride semiconductor light emitting device 100 according to the present invention includes a sapphire substrate 101, a buffer layer 112 and a dielectric layer 120 sequentially formed on the sapphire substrate 101. and an n-type nitride semiconductor layer 113, an active layer 114, and an n-type nitride semiconductor layer 115, wherein the p-type nitride semiconductor layer 115 and the active layer 114 are subjected to a mesa etching process. The partial region is removed to have a structure in which a part of the upper surface of the n-type nitride semiconductor layer 113 is exposed.

An n-type electrode 117 is formed on the exposed n-type nitride semiconductor layer 113.

In addition, a transparent electrode 116 made of indium tin oxide (ITO) or the like is formed on the p-type nitride semiconductor layer 115, and a p-type electrode 118 is formed thereon.

The substrate 101 is a substrate suitable for growing a nitride semiconductor single crystal, and is preferably formed using a transparent material including sapphire. In addition to sapphire, the substrate 100 may be formed of zinc oxide (ZnO), It may be formed of gallium nitride (GaN), silicon carbide (SiC), aluminum nitride (AlN), or the like.

Nitrides containing GaN or Ga, for example, SiC / InGaN, which may be omitted depending on device characteristics and process conditions.

The n-type nitride semiconductor layer 112 includes a GaN layer 113a doped with n-type conductive impurities such as Si, Ge, Sn, and the like, and an n + type GaN layer 113b formed on the n-type GaN layer 113a. , 113b '), and the n + -type GaN layers 113b and 113b' include a dielectric layer 120 therein.

The dielectric layer 120 configured as described above acts as a capacitance to increase the rebound speed of the device when instantaneous static electricity enters the reverse direction, thereby preventing the destruction of the device due to static electricity, as well as current crowding ( By preventing the crowding and increasing the spread of the current, the spread of the current is increased, thereby contributing to further improving the characteristics of the light emitting device.

Referring to FIG. 2, the structure of the nitride semiconductor light emitting device 100 of the present invention will be described continuously. The active layer 114 formed on the n-type nitride semiconductor layer 113 is formed by In X Al Y Ga 1-XY N.

After forming 213, a dielectric layer 220 is formed on the first n + type GaN layer 213b.

The dielectric layer 220 may be formed of an oxide layer including at least one of Zr, Si, Hf, Sr, Ti, and Ba having a higher dielectric constant than GaN, and may be formed to have at least one layer. For example, the dielectric layer 220 may be formed of an oxide layer such as ZrO 2 / SiO 2 , HfO 2 / SiO 2 , SiN 2 / SiO 2 / SrO 2 , TiO 2 / SiO 2 , BaTiO 3, or SrTiO 3. have. In this case, the thickness of the dielectric layer 220 is preferably formed to 20nm or less to enable tunneling of electrons.

Subsequently, when the dielectric layer 220 is formed in a pattern form, as shown in FIGS. 4 to 5, a separate patterning process may be added, and as shown in FIG. 3, the patterning process may be performed without a patterning process. .

By using the transparent electrode 116 is formed.

In this case, the active layer 114 may be formed of a multi-quantum well structure consisting of In X Al Y Ga 1-XY N composition formula (where 0≤X, 0≤Y, X + Y≤1), for example For example, the InGaN-based quantum well layer and the GaN-based quantum barrier layer may be formed of a multi-quantum well structure having a structure in which the layers are alternately stacked.

Subsequently, an n-type electrode 217 is formed on the n-type contact region, that is, the exposed first n + type GaN layer 213b, and a p-type electrode 218 is formed on the transparent electrode 216. Thus, the nitride semiconductor light emitting device according to the present invention is produced.
