Description

Nitride-based semiconductor light emitting device and substrate manufacturing method {PATTERNED SUBSTRATE FOR GAN-BASED SEMICONDUCTOR LIGHT EMITTING DIODE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD}

The present invention relates to a nitride-based semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing a substrate, using a wet etching to form a nano-sized ITO sphere, using this as an etching mask for forming a nano-size pattern on the substrate surface of the nitride-based semiconductor device In addition, the present invention relates to a nitride-based semiconductor light emitting device having excellent external light emission efficiency and a method of manufacturing a substrate by forming a nano-sized pattern on the surface of a substrate so that light generated from the nitride-based semiconductor device can be scattered at an interface between the nitride-based semiconductor and the substrate. .

The III-V nitride semiconductor has a wide band spacing of 1.9 eV (InN) to 6.2 eV (AlN), so that light can be emitted even in the blue and green light and ultraviolet regions, thereby providing high brightness laser diode (LD) and light emitting diode (LED). ), And are attracting attention in the field of use, such as optoelectronic devices such as PD (photo diode) and high-output electrical devices. As the device is developed and used for the first time, it will be used more effectively in interior and exterior lighting as well as electronic devices such as watches, cars, traffic lights, etc. do. In order to meet such demands, high efficiency and high output power of LEDs are required, and there are many problems to be improved, such as internal quantum efficiency, light extraction efficiency, packaging efficiency, and thermal problems. Such nitride semiconductors do not have a lattice matched substrate, unlike other III-V compounds, against various advantages and applicability. Sapphire (Al 2 O 3 ), silicon carbide (SiC), gallium arsenide (GaAs), etc. are used so far, but gallium nitride (GaN) has good crystallinity due to very large lattice constant and thermal expansion coefficient. It is hard to grow thin film. The gallium nitride epitaxy, which is currently mainly studied, uses a gallium nitride buffer layer grown at low temperature using a sapphire substrate to reduce the difference in lattice matching, and to grow the gallium nitride epitaxy layer at high temperature again. It is carried out in a number of research groups, and research on lattice matching substrates continues. In addition, to reduce the TDD (Threading Dislocation Density) to increase the internal quantum efficiency, it first deposits an insulating material (SiO 2 , SiNx, etc.) on the sapphire substrate to prevent potential from rising from the bottom to prevent the potential above the insulating material Research using Lateral epitaxial overgrowth (LEO), which reduces TDD by growing non-existing gallium nitride thin films, and recombines electron-holes by changing the active layer structure of LEDs Methods to increase recombination efficiency have been studied, and the main focus has been on increasing internal quantum efficiency.

However, to increase the efficiency of the LED, it is necessary to increase the light extraction efficiency of the LED in addition to the increase of the internal quantum efficiency. In order to improve the light extraction efficiency by reducing the total reflection determined by the critical angle due to the refractive index difference between the nitride semiconductor and the air surrounding the nitride semiconductor, the refractive index difference between the nitride semiconductor and the air is reduced to increase the critical angle or increase the surface of the light emitting diode. It is important to roughen and change the internal path of the light to increase the escape probability of the light.

The critical angle of light can be expressed by Snell's law [θ C = sin -1 (n air / n GaN )], where the difference in refractive index between the inside of the LED (n GaN = 2.5) and the outside of the LED (n air = 1) Light incident from an angle greater than 23.5 ° is totally reflected inside the LED, so the light extraction efficiency of a general light emitting diode structure is very low.

The method of improving the light extraction efficiency of the light emitting diode is to change the structure of the light emitting diode to change the path of the light generated inside the light emitting diode to increase the probability of escape of light, or the intermediate refractive index between the nitride semiconductor and air There is a method to reduce the total reflection by inserting the material of the light to increase the critical angle of the light. In order to reduce the total reflection, research is being conducted to give irregularities to the surface of P-type gallium nitride, and the sidewall is tilted to form a structure in which photons easily escape from the LED, thereby increasing light extraction. The research is being actively conducted. In addition, research has been conducted to increase the light extraction efficiency of LEDs by suppressing internal multi-reflection of the emitted light by a patterned substrate formed by a simple photolithography process using an SiO 2 insulating film. In addition, research is being conducted to increase the external quantum efficiency by fabricating a patterned sapphire substrate (PSS) through sapphire dry etching. However, dry etching using ICP causes lattice damage and strain on sapphire, resulting in deterioration of device characteristics and reduction of internal quantum efficiency.

In addition, the PSS process using the conventional photolithography is possible only up to micro units, while the PSS process using the nickel mask is possible at the nano unit, but the process configuration is complicated and it is difficult to remove the nickel mask after the process is in progress.

As shown in FIG. 1A, preparing the bare substrate 10 may include sapphire (Al 2 O 3 ) and silicon carbide (SiC) to fabricate a light emitting diode (LED). As a step of preparing a bare substrate 10 made of a material such as single crystal silicon (Si), the bare substrate 10 refers to a substrate before applying the manufacturing method of the present invention. The bare substrate 10 may use a general flat substrate, but may also use a patterned sapphire substrate (PSS) in which micro-level irregularities are formed on an upper surface thereof. In addition, as shown in FIG. 4A, the uneven substrate may use a substrate having continuous unevenness formed on one surface thereof, and as shown in FIG. 5, a flat surface partially formed between unevenness and unevenness may be formed. Can also be used. The first embodiment of the present invention is an example in which a substrate that is entirely flat is used, and the second and third embodiments are examples in which an uneven substrate is used.

As shown in FIG. 1B, the forming of the polycrystalline oxide film 20 on the bare substrate 10 is a step of forming the polycrystalline oxide film 20 on the bare substrate 10, wherein the polycrystalline oxide film is formed of SiO. X , Si x N y , etc. may be made of one or two or more, and the polycrystalline oxide film 20 may be formed by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), sputtering, or the like. An embodiment of the present invention uses silicon oxide (SiO 2 ) as a polycrystalline oxide film. In general, an etching mask used to form a pattern of nano units on a substrate is mainly made of nickel, but pattern density control is not easy since the etching mask is not easily removed after the etching is completed. The degree is not high. In addition, the photolithography method is mainly used to form an etching mask for the etching pattern for micro units, but since the nano unit process is difficult, an embodiment of the present invention uses silicon oxide as an etching mask.

As shown in FIG. 1C, the step of forming the transparent conductive film 30 on the polycrystalline oxide film 20 is a previous step for forming a nano-sized sphere, which will be described later. The transparent conductive film may be formed of SnO x , In x O y , Al x O y , ZnO, ZrO x , HfO x , TiO x , Ta x O y , Ga x O, etc., consisting of one or two or more, the transparent conductive film 30 is a transparent conductive material It may be Indium Tin Oxide (ITO).

The thickness of the transparent conductive film 30 is 50nm ~ 600nm, it is possible to adjust the average size of the nano-sized spheres generated by adjusting the thickness of the transparent conductive film 30. The transparent conductive film 30 shows different etching characteristics according to the thickness. As shown in the SEM photograph of FIG. 16, as the thickness of the transparent conductive film increases, the size of the nano-sized sphere increases. If the thickness of the transparent conductive film 30 is thinner than 50 nm, nano-sized spheres are not formed. If the thickness is greater than 600 nm, the nano-sized spheres tend not to be uniform.

As shown in FIG. 1D, forming the nanospheres 31 by applying a first etching process to the transparent conductive layer 30 may include forming the nanospheres 31 on the polycrystalline oxide layer 20. (30) is etched to form a nano-sized sphere 31 on the polycrystalline oxide film 20, the first etching process is performed by wet etching, may be made by dry etching.

Wet etching is performed by controlling the etching time using BOE (buffered oxide echant), hydrochloric acid (HCl), nitric acid (HNO 3 ), phosphoric acid (H 3 PO 4 ), oxalic acid, sulfuric acid ( H 2 SO 4 ), hydrofluoric acid (HF) may be an etching solution containing one or two or more. At this time, the acidity (pH) of the acidic solution is preferably 0.1 ~ 1. Etching with a high concentration acid solution with a pH less than 0.1 does not form nanospheres and removes the transparent conductive film.Etching rate with a low concentration acid solution with a pH greater than 1 As a result, it is not etched in the form of a sphere, and the density of the nano-sized sphere is lowered.

FIG. 18 shows the relationship between the% concentration of the etching solution and the density of ITO nanosized spheres. The density decreases as the% concentration increases within the range of 5% to 10%.

Dry etching is performed using ICP (Inductively Coupled Plasma) equipment, and the etching gas is selected as the optimal etching gas according to the material of the transparent conductive film. For example, when the transparent conductive film is ITO, the main etching gas is CH 4 and the additive gas is O 2 and HBr.

Through the first etching process as described above, as shown in the SEM image of Figure 6, a nano-sized sphere is formed. Heat treatment for hardening the nano-sized spheres 31 formed by the first etching process may be performed, and the shape of the nano-sized spheres 31 may be changed through ICP (Inductively Coupled Plasma) treatment. .

As shown in FIG. 1E, the step of forming the polycrystalline oxide film 20 on the lower surface of the nano-sized sphere 31 as a nano-sized etching mask 21 by applying a second etching process may be performed by using nano-sized etching mask 21. By etching the silicon oxide (SiO) 2 which is a polycrystalline acid film 20 exposed between the spheres 31, the etching process is performed by wet etching, and the second etching process is made by dry etching It may be. At this time, the wet etching is performed by adjusting the time to etch in the BOE (buffered oxide echant) solution. In addition, dry etching is performed using an ICP (Inductively Coupled Plasma) equipment, the etching gas may be a fluorine (fluorine) gas such as SF 6 , CF 4 , CHF 3 , C 2 F 6 .

As shown in FIG. 1F, the forming of the pattern on the bare substrate 10 by applying a third etching process to the nano-sized etching mask 21 may include forming the bare substrate 10 in nano size. An etching process for etching the triangular pyramid as a step of forming the substrate 11 on which the triangular pyramid pattern 12 is formed may be performed by wet etching. In addition, the etching process may be performed by dry etching.

17 shows the relationship between the sulfuric acid solution and the etching rate. As the concentration increases, the etching rate increases.

In the case where the third etching process is performed by wet etching, it is preferable to use an acid solution as a mixture of sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid in a volume ratio of 3: 1. As shown in FIG. 17, when the ratio of sulfuric acid to phosphoric acid is etched with an acid solution (75% sulfuric acid solution) of 3: 1, it is easy to control the etching time by adjusting the etching rate.

In addition, the wet etching is preferably etched at a temperature of 270 ~ 280 ℃.

It is easy to adjust the etching rate at a temperature of 270 ~ 280 ℃ as above in the boiling point of the acidic solution 300 ℃. At this time, the etching time depends on the thickness of the ITO and the final shape of the triangular pyramid pattern to be formed.

As described above, when the sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid is mixed at a volume ratio of 3: 1 by using a mixed solution at 270 to 280 ° C., the etching solution has an etching rate of about 100 nm / min and is preferably etched for 5 minutes under the above conditions. Do.

In addition, when the third etching process is performed by dry etching, dry etching is performed using an ICP (Inductively Coupled Plasma) equipment, and as an etching gas, fluorine such as SF 6 , CF 4 , CHF 3 , C 2 F 6 , etc. Use fluorine-based gas.

Hereinafter, the relationship between the triangular pyramid pattern formed on the bare substrate 10 and the thickness of ITO used as the transparent conductive film 30 will be described.

Referring to FIGS. 2A to 2E and 3A to 3E, when the thickness of the ITO layer is 100 nm and the thickness of 200 nm, as shown in FIGS. 2A to 2E, the thickness of the ITO layer 30 ′ is increased. In the case of 100 nm, the ITO layer 30 'is etched into the nano-sized sphere 31' by the first etching process as described above, and the polycrystalline oxide film 20 is etched by the second etching process. 21 '). In addition, a triangular pyramid pattern is formed on the bare substrate 10 by the third etching process. The lower substrate 10 of the lower portion of the etching mask 21 'has an etching rate compared to a portion without an etching mask. Since is fast, the etching pattern shown in FIG. 2D is shown. In this case, a substrate 11 'on which a triangular pyramid 12' having no C surface is formed is formed. 7 and 8 are SEM images of the pattern formed on the substrate when the ITO layer having a thickness of 100 nm is applied, and it can be seen that there is almost no flat C surface on the triangular pyramid pattern. 11 to 13 are top plan views of the substrate on which the pattern is formed, and a triangular pyramid shape may be confirmed.

On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 3A to 3E, when the thickness of the ITO layer 30 ″ is 200 nm, the diameter of the nano-sized sphere 31 ″ is larger than when the thickness of the ITO layer is 100 nm. As a result, the size of the opening of the etching mask 21 '' is increased. As such, when the size of the opening increases, there is a C surface that is not etched under the etching mask.

As such, when the size of the nano-sized sphere is adjusted by adjusting the thickness of the transparent conductive film ITO, the size of the opening of the etching mask formed of the polycrystalline oxide film is adjusted to change the distribution and shape of the triangular pyramid pattern formed on the substrate. 9 and 10 are SEM images of a pattern formed on a substrate when a 200 nm-thick ITO layer is applied, and it can be seen that a flat C plane is present on an upper portion of the triangular pyramid pattern. 14 and 15 are plan views of the substrate on which the pattern is formed, as viewed from above, to identify a triangular pyramid shape having a C surface.

Since the distribution and shape of the triangular pyramid affects the light extraction efficiency, it is preferable to adjust the distribution and shape of the triangular pyramid according to the wavelength of light of the LED to emit light using the substrate on which the pattern is formed. .

The second and third embodiments of the present invention are characterized in that the concave-convex substrate 11 in which micro-concave-convex irregularities are formed in advance on the bare substrate.

4A to 4F illustrate a case in which an uneven substrate on which micro-units of irregularities are formed in advance is used as a bare substrate. The transparent conductive film 300 is formed after the polycrystalline oxide film 200 is formed. A nano-sized sphere 310 is formed through an etching process, an etching mask 210 is formed through a second etching process, and a triangular pyramid shape 120 is formed on the substrate 110 through a third etching process. Forming is to go through the same steps as in the first embodiment, so repeated description is omitted.

FIG. 5 illustrates a third embodiment, wherein a triangular pyramid shape 120 'is formed on an upper portion of the substrate 110' by using a bare substrate having a flat surface formed between the irregularities and the irregularities of the uneven substrate. Since each process goes through the same steps as in the second embodiment, the repeated description is omitted.

As such, when the pattern is formed on the bare substrate on which the micro unity of concavities and convexities is formed in advance, a nano-sized pattern is formed on the microunity concavity and convexity, thereby obtaining a higher light extraction efficiency on the substrate.

On the substrate made by the embodiment of the present invention, a nitride-based semiconductor light emitting device may be formed by including an n-type nitride-based semiconductor layer, an active layer, and a p-type nitride-based semiconductor layer.
