200820456 九、發明說明: 【發明所屬之技術領域】 本發明係有關於一種發光二極體元件及其製法,特別 有關於一種利用濕式触刻製作具傾斜側面的單晶氧化紹基 底之發光二極體元件。 【先前技#f】 發光二極體(Light Emitting Diode,LED)的發光原理 是利用半導體固有特性,不同於白熾燈發熱的發光原理, 所以發光二極體被稱為冷光源(cold light)。發光二極體 具有高耐久性、壽命長、輕巧、耗電量低等優點,且不含 水銀等有害物質,因此現今之照明市場對於發光二極體照 明寄予極大厚望。 一般來說,發光二極體常由磷化鎵(GaP)、氮化鎵(GaN) 等HI-V族混晶化合物經磊晶而成。由於發光二極體的折射 率大於外部的折射率,並且習知的發光二極體主要為四方 形對稱之立方體,因此,當發光二極體所產生的光線到達 二極體晶粒和空氣的界面時,大於臨界角之光線將產生全 反射回到二極體晶粒内部。而四方形對稱之二極體晶粒的 四個界面係互相平行,使得内部大於臨界角之光線只能一 直在内部全反射,導致發光二極體對外部的發光效率遠低 於内部的量子效率,所以,改變發光二極體的晶粒形狀即 成為可有效提昇發光效率的方法。 以現階段的半導體加工技術而言,最先成功使用此法 0949-A21776TWF(N2);P51950082TW;Kelly 5 200820456 的為美國第5779924與6229160號專利所提出之截頭式倒 至子塔型啦光一極脰(Truncated Inverted Pyramid LED,TIP LED) ’其係將磷化紹鎵銦/磷化鎵(A1GaInp/Gap)發光二極 體晶粒侧面加工為倒金字塔形狀,晶粒的四個界面並非互 相平行,可使光有效的引出晶粒之外,提昇發光效率達2 倍左右。然而,於此專利中所提出之倒金字塔型發光二極 體係以直接機械加工的方式形成,其僅能應用於磷化鋁鎵 銦/鱗化鎵(AlGalnP/GaP)紅光二極體上,利用其材料機械加 工容易之特性,以直接切割方式製成倒金字塔型發光二極 體。 然而對氮化鎵發光二極體而言,其大部分係蟲晶於藍 寶石(Sapphire)基板上,由於藍寶石非常堅硬,要對其進行 機械加工相當困難,至今商業化生產依然無法突破。 另外,美國的Cree公司運用類似的技術(美國專利 6740906, 6747298, 6791119, 6995032, 7008861),使用機械 加工法將碳化矽基板作成倒金字塔型,如此即可產生倒金 字塔型的氮化鎵發光二極體,並可明顯的增加發光效率, 也已經有商用產品在市場上銷售。然而,碳化矽基板會吸 收紫外光’這缺點在白光照明的應用上會有相當大的影 響’對於未來的應用性將大大地被偈限。 另一方面,亦有其他技術將InGaN/GaN材料蠢晶成長 於氮化鎵基板,後續再以機械加工方式來製造出具有斜面 之發光二極體,但是其斜面上會有殘留加工應力之表層, 其容易吸光又不易去除,並且降低發光二極體元件之發光 0949-A21776TWF(N2);P51950082TW;Kelly 6 200820456 效率。此外=於氮化鎵基板製作良率過低,成本很高, 因此,市仙格遠遠高於碳切基板和藍f石基板,目前 難以使用於商用產品。 在工研院電光所提出的專利案件中(美國專利第 6969627號)毅供-㈣光二姉元件及其製造方法,請 爹閱第1® *係利用氮化鎵蟲晶的特性自然形成蠢晶斜 面,^一基板1G表面形成具有斜面之氮化鎵混成厚膜14, 再於氮化鎵混成厚膜上成長發光二極體結構15,進而將其 製作成發力二極體晶,粒。如此,纟須機械加I即可製作具 有斜面的發光二極體結構,使得光的外部發光效率可以大 大地提升,然而其缺點是磊晶過程比較繁雜。 上述習知的機械加工或磊晶成長方式皆有其缺點,並 且對於製作單晶氧化鋁(亦即藍寶石)基底之斜面亦有其困 難度,因此,業界亟需一種製作具傾斜侧面基底之發光二 極體元件的方法,其可以應用在單晶氧化鋁基底上,達到 長:咼發光二極體元件之發光效率,並且同時可節省其掣迫 成本及縮短製造時間。 【發明内容】 本發明之目的在於利用濕式|虫刻製作出具傾斜侧面基

Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a light-emitting diode element and a method for fabricating the same, and more particularly to a method for producing a single-crystal oxidized substrate with a slanted side by wet-touching Polar body component. [Previous Technique #f] The principle of illumination of a Light Emitting Diode (LED) is to use the inherent characteristics of a semiconductor, which is different from the principle of illumination of an incandescent lamp. Therefore, a light-emitting diode is called a cold light. Light-emitting diodes have the advantages of high durability, long life, light weight, low power consumption, and no harmful substances such as mercury. Therefore, the lighting market today has great expectations for light-emitting diode lighting. In general, a light-emitting diode is often formed by epitaxy of a HI-V mixed crystal compound such as gallium phosphide (GaP) or gallium nitride (GaN). Since the refractive index of the light-emitting diode is larger than the external refractive index, and the conventional light-emitting diode is mainly a square-symmetric cube, when the light generated by the light-emitting diode reaches the diode grain and the air At the interface, light larger than the critical angle will produce total reflection back into the interior of the diode grains. The four interfaces of the square symmetrical diode grains are parallel to each other, so that the light having a larger internal angle than the critical angle can only be totally internally reflected, resulting in the luminous efficiency of the light-emitting diode to the outside being much lower than the internal quantum efficiency. Therefore, changing the crystal grain shape of the light-emitting diode becomes a method for effectively improving the light-emitting efficiency. In the current stage of semiconductor processing technology, the first successful use of this method 0949-A21776TWF (N2); P51950082TW; Kelly 5 200820456 is the US-based 5,779,924 and 6,229,160 patents proposed by the truncated-to-sub-column type Truncated Inverted Pyramid LED (TIP LED) 'The granulated indium gallium indium/gallium phosphide (A1GaInp/Gap) light-emitting diode grain is processed into an inverted pyramid shape, and the four interfaces of the crystal grains are not mutually Parallel, the light can be effectively extracted outside the grain, and the luminous efficiency is improved by about 2 times. However, the inverted pyramid type light emitting diode system proposed in this patent is formed by direct machining, and can be applied only to an aluminum gallium indium phosphide/gallium gallium (AlGalnP/GaP) red light diode. The inverted pyramid type light-emitting diode is formed by direct cutting by utilizing the characteristics that the material is easily machined. However, for GaN light-emitting diodes, most of them are crystallized on sapphire substrates. Since sapphire is very hard, it is difficult to mechanically process it, and commercial production still cannot be broken. In addition, Cree Corporation of the United States uses a similar technology (US Patent Nos. 6,740,906, 6,747,298, 6,791,119, 69,950,032, 700,886,1) to use a mechanical processing method to make a tantalum carbide substrate into an inverted pyramid type, so that an inverted pyramid type GaN light emitting diode can be produced. Polar body, and can significantly increase the luminous efficiency, there are already commercial products on the market. However, the disadvantage of the silicon carbide substrate absorbing ultraviolet light's will have a considerable impact on the application of white light illumination' will be greatly limited for future applications. On the other hand, there are other technologies to grow InGaN/GaN materials on a gallium nitride substrate, and then mechanically process the light-emitting diode with a bevel, but the surface of the slope has residual processing stress. It is easy to absorb light and is not easy to remove, and reduces the luminous efficiency of the light-emitting diode element 0949-A21776TWF (N2); P51950082TW; Kelly 6 200820456 efficiency. In addition, the production rate of the gallium nitride substrate is too low and the cost is high. Therefore, the city is far superior to the carbon-cut substrate and the blue f-stone substrate, and it is currently difficult to use in commercial products. In the patent case filed by the Institute of Electro-Technology (U.S. Patent No. 6,969,627), the source-- (four) optical diode element and its manufacturing method, please refer to the 1® * system to form a stupid crystal using the characteristics of gallium nitride crystal On the inclined surface, a gallium nitride mixed thick film 14 having a slope is formed on the surface of the substrate 1G, and the light-emitting diode structure 15 is grown on the thick film of the gallium nitride mixed film, and further formed into a force-generating diode crystal and particles. Thus, it is not necessary to mechanically add I to fabricate a light-emitting diode structure having a bevel, so that the external luminous efficiency of light can be greatly improved, but the disadvantage is that the epitaxial process is complicated. The above-mentioned conventional machining or epitaxial growth methods have their disadvantages, and it is also difficult to produce a bevel of a single crystal alumina (ie, sapphire) substrate. Therefore, there is a need in the industry for a light having a slanted side substrate. A method of a diode element which can be applied to a single crystal alumina substrate to achieve a long luminous efficiency of the luminescent diode component, and at the same time saves its cost and shortens the manufacturing time. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is to produce a light-emitting diode element with a slanted side substrate by wet etching, thereby saving manufacturing cost and time, and can be applied to a single crystal alumina substrate to improve a light-emitting diode. The luminous efficiency of the component. To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a light emitting diode element comprising a single germanium oxide substrate having an upper surface, a lower surface and at least one pair of inclined sides; and a light emitting diode disposed on the single crystal alumina substrate On the upper surface. 0949-A21776TWF(N2); P51950082TW; Kelly 7 200820456 • To achieve the above object, the present invention further provides a method for manufacturing a light-emitting diode element, comprising: providing a single crystal alumina substrate having an upper surface and a lower surface, forming The light-emitting diode is on the upper surface of the single crystal alumina substrate; the light-emitting diode is patterned, and a protective layer is formed on the surface of the patterned light-emitting diode to expose the single crystal alumina substrate; And the light-emitting diode protected by the protective layer is used as a mask, the single crystal alumina substrate is etched out of the plurality of v-type trenches by etching; and the single crystal alumina substrate is divided along the v-type trench to form a plurality of A light emitting diode element, wherein the single crystal alumina substrate of the light emitting diode element has at least one pair of inclined sides. In addition, the present invention further provides a method for fabricating a light-emitting diode element, comprising: providing a single crystal alumina substrate having an upper surface and a lower surface; forming a polar body on a surface of the single crystal alumina substrate; forming a protective layer on the surface On the lower surface of the single crystal alumina substrate; patterning the protective layer to expose the single crystal alumina substrate, using the patterned protective layer as a mask, etching the single crystal alumina substrate by etching to form a plurality of inverted V a trench; removing the patterned protective layer; and dividing the single crystal alumina substrate along the inverted V-shaped trench to form a plurality of light emitting diode elements, wherein the single crystal of the light emitting diode element The oxidized substrate has at least one pair of inclined sides. The above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent and understood. The following description of the accompanying drawings will be described in detail as follows: [Embodiment] The present invention uses a relatively simple lithography etching method to have a nitrogen The oxidized Ming single crystal substrate of the photo-polar body structure is formed by the surname engraving method to form the ν-type repeating groove. The narration method can be a dry type or a wet type engraving, preferably 0949-A21776TWF (N2); P51950082TW; Kelly 200820456 wet etching, and graining the gallium nitride light-emitting diode by the v-type trench, so that a gallium nitride light-emitting diode crystal having a single-crystal oxide substrate with an inclined side surface can be obtained grain. [Embodiment 1] A cross-sectional view of a manufacturing flow of Embodiment 1 of the present invention is shown in Figs. 2A to 2F. Referring to FIG. 2A, the substrate 20 is first prepared, for example, as a single crystal alumina substrate wafer, and the light emitting diode structure 22 is grown on the substrate, and the light emitting diode is represented by only a simple layer in the 2A to 2D drawings. The detailed structure of the structure will be as shown in Figs. 2E and 2F described later. Referring to FIG. 2B, the light-emitting diode structure is patterned by using a lithography technique to form a plurality of light-emitting diode blocks 23 of approximately the same size, and each of the light-emitting diode blocks is exposed to the surface of the substrate surface. Zone 21 is separated. Then, referring to FIG. 2C, the protective layer 24 is covered on the entire surface of the light-emitting diode block 23, and the surface of the substrate is exposed. The protective layer is, for example, Si〇2, which can protect the light during the subsequent etching process. The diode block 23 is protected from erosion. In addition to SiO2, other materials that can be used to protect the LED block 23 may include SiNx, Pt, Pd, Cr, or Ni. Next, referring to FIG. 2D, an important technical feature of the present invention is that the light-emitting diode block 23 protected by the protective layer is used as an etch mask, and the substrate 20 is etched by wet etching at the position of the above-mentioned channel 21. The V-shaped groove 25 is formed, and the etching liquid used therein may be a mixed solution of phosphoric acid and sulfuric acid, and a preferred mixing ratio thereof is about 1:1. After the V-groove 25 is etched, the protective layer 24 can be removed by wet etching. The V-shaped groove 25 is formed such that the angle A between the slope of the V-shaped groove 25 and the lower surface of the substrate is about 42 to 60 degrees. 0949-A21776TWF(N2);P51950082TW;Kelly 9 200820456 Please refer to Fig. 4', which is an electron microscopy (SEM) photograph of a single crystal oxide inscribed by a chemical solution I insect, in which the depth of the v-groove It is about 1.3 //m, and the angle between the slope of the V-shaped groove and the plane parallel to the surface of the substrate is 45 degrees. The depth and angle of the V-shaped groove can be determined by the thickness of the substrate and the demand. The groove of more than 1 // m can be engraved by adjusting the etching time or the concentration of the surname. The state after the removal of the protective layer 24 is as shown in FIG. 2E, wherein the light-emitting diode block 23 is a light-emitting diode emitting light, and the detailed structure thereof includes: n-type gallium nitride series three-five compound layer 26 setting On the upper surface of the substrate 20, the n-type electrode 28 is disposed on the n-type gallium nitride series tri-five compound layer 26, forming an ohmic contact with the n-type gallium nitride series tri-five compound layer 26; the active layer 30 is disposed on The n-type gallium nitride series tri-five compound layer is used as a light-emitting region; the germanium-type gallium nitride series tri-five compound layer 32 is disposed on the active layer 30; and the p-type electrode 34 is disposed on the p-type gallium nitride series three On the group of five compound layer 32, an ohmic contact is formed with the gallium nitride gallium series tri-five compound layer 32 to input a forward bias. The structure of the active layer may be a double heterojunction (DH), a single quantum well (SQW) or a multiple quantum well (MQW) structure. Finally, the GaN gallium luminescent diode can be grained along the V-shaped trench 25 by physically splitting the substrate 2, and the segmentation method can be laser cutting or mechanical cutting. The light-emitting diode element 200 is as shown in FIG. 2F, wherein the substrate 20 has at least one pair of inclined side faces 202 and 204, and the V-shaped groove 25 is a cross section of the substrate in a certain direction (for example, the X direction). For example, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that in other directions (for example, the direction of the 或 or the X, 与, 21, 21, 21, 21, 519, 519, 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 519 There is a V-shaped groove, so that the bottom shape of the grained LED component 200 can be polygonal or circular. Further, as shown in Fig. 2F, the light-emitting diode element 200 formed by the method of the first embodiment has a longitudinal cross section (perpendicular to the upper and lower surfaces of the substrate) having a trapezoidal shape. [Embodiment 2] A cross-sectional view of a manufacturing flow of Embodiment 2 of the present invention is shown in Figs. 3A to 3E, which differs from Embodiment 1 in that a V-shaped groove is formed from the lower surface of the substrate. Referring first to FIG. 3A, a light-emitting diode structure 22 is grown on the upper surface 201 of the substrate 20, and a protective layer 24 is formed on the lower surface 203 of the substrate 20. The substrate 20 is, for example, a single crystal alumina substrate wafer, and is protected. The material of the layer may be SiO 2 , SiN x , Pt, Pd, Cr or Ni. In the 3A to 3C drawings, only a simple layer 22 represents a light-emitting diode structure, and the detailed structure thereof will be as shown in the following 3D and 3E. Shown. Next, referring to FIG. 3B, the protective layer is patterned by photolithography to form a plurality of protective layer blocks 24 of approximately the same size, each of which is separated by a channel 21 that exposes the lower surface of the substrate. Come. Referring to FIG. 3C, an important technical feature of the present invention is that the protective layer block 24 is an etch mask, and the substrate 20 is etched out of the inverted V-shaped trench 25 by wet etching at the position of the above-mentioned channel 21. The etching solution used may be a mixed solution of phosphoric acid and sulfuric acid, and a preferred mixing ratio thereof is about 1:1. After the etching of the inverted V-shaped trench 25 is completed, the protective layer 24 can be removed by wet etching. In addition, before the inverted V-shaped trench 25 is etched, the protective diode layer (not shown) may be covered on the light-emitting diode structure 22, and the material thereof may be 0949-A21776TWF(N2); P51950082TW; Kelly 11 200820456 and the protective layer. The material of 24 is the same to protect the light-emitting diode structure during the etching process and to remove the inverted V-shaped trench after it is completed. The slope of the formed inverted V-shaped groove and the upper surface B of the substrate are about 42 to 60 degrees. Next, referring to FIG. 3D, after the protective layer block 24 is removed, the light emitting diode 22 is patterned into a plurality of light emitting diode blocks 23 by the lithography technique, and the size is about the same as the protective layer block 24. . The light-emitting diode block 23 is a light-emitting diode that emits light, and its detailed structure is the same as that of the first embodiment, and will not be repeated here. Finally, the gallium nitride light-emitting diode is grained by laser cutting or mechanical cutting along the inverted V-shaped trench 25, and the completed light-emitting diode element 200 is as shown in FIG. 3E, wherein the single crystal The alumina substrate 20 has at least a pair of inclined sides 202 and 204, and the bottomed shape of the grained LED component 200 may be polygonal or circular. Further, as shown in Fig. 3E, the light-emitting diode element 200 formed by the method of the second embodiment has a longitudinal section of the substrate which is an inverted trapezoidal shape. The invention has the advantages that the process is relatively simple, and the light-emitting diode element having the inclined side substrate can be fabricated without mechanical processing or epitaxial growth, so that there is no problem of mechanical residual stress or epitaxial growth. More complicated methods. In addition, for a single crystal alumina substrate which does not have a light absorption problem on a light-emitting diode, since it is a rigid material, mechanical processing is not easy, and the present invention can overcome this problem, and a single crystal alumina having an inclined side surface can be produced. A light-emitting diode element of the substrate. In addition, the etching method used in the present invention has high fabrication efficiency, and can complete a plurality of light-emitting diode crystal grains at one time, which is compared with the conventional mechanical processing method: 0949-A21776TWF (N2); P51950082TW; Kelly 12 200820456 individual grinding.
