Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a light-emitting diode, and more particularly to a process method for increasing the luminous efficiency of a light-emitting diode. 5, [Prior Art], with the continuous improvement of semiconductor process capability, and the high luminous efficiency and the radiance of the luminescent components, the LEDs have gradually stepped onto the stage, especially in flip-chip. The light-emitting diode made by flip-chip packaging technology has the advantages of high heat dissipation and high power, so (10) becomes the mainstream of LED light-emitting components, such as the sixth riding device, which is a light-emitting diode 覆 in a flip chip package. The structure of the LED chip has the same structure as the conventional LED structure, but the modular structure of the chip is not the same, since the flip chip module 11 used is based on a heat sink wafer with high heat dissipation effect, and the LED is made. The wafer 10 is driven without high residual heat under high current conditions, so the area of the wafer 15 can be increased to 1 mm x 1 mm, and then operated under a large current condition of 300 to 500 mA, and an operating power of one watt can be achieved. However, since the LED chip 1 is flip-chip bonded by the n-type and p-type double electrodes ιοί, 102 and the underlying flip chip module η, the photon generated by the photoelectric effect is via the upper substrate 1〇〇. The light is emitted, so that part of the 20 photons are absorbed by the substrate 100 not only when passing through the substrate 100, but also because more and more photons are absorbed by the substrate 1 by the interface reflection phenomenon in the light-emitting interface, thereby reducing the photoelectric reaction. Efficiency, so how to improve the luminous efficiency of flip-chip LED structure with reduced thermal resistance is a big test for LED product manufacturers. 4 200834976 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, it is a primary object of the present invention to provide an opportunity to reduce the absorption of photons in a light-emitting diode to increase its luminous efficiency. 5 In order to achieve the foregoing object, a method for improving the brightness of a light-emitting diode is provided by the following steps: forming a semiconductor layer on a substrate by a semiconductor crystal growth method; and forming a semiconductor layer on the semiconductor layer Forming a light-emitting layer, wherein the light-emitting layer is a region for photo-reactive photons; forming an electrode layer on the light-emitting layer; removing the substrate to expose the semiconductor layer; forming a crystal surface of a specific pattern on the semiconductor layer The incident angle of the photons generated by the luminescent layer to the surface of the crystal is less than the critical angle of total reflection of the light in the semiconductor layer. Therefore, the light-emitting diode provided by the present invention can prevent photons from being totally reflected on the surface of the crystal to be absorbed by the internal material, which can have high luminous efficiency and high brightness. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment will be described with reference to a plurality of drawings for further explaining the components and functions of the present invention. The following is a brief description of the drawings: The process structure shown in the preferred embodiment is shown in FIG. 5 200834976, which is intended to show the structure of the substrate and the N-type semiconductor layer. The second figure is a schematic diagram of the process structure provided by the first preferred embodiment, indicating formation. The structure of the illuminating layer and the ohmic contact electrode; the third figure is a schematic diagram of the structure 5 of the illuminating diode provided by the first preferred embodiment; and the fourth figure is provided by the second preferred embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5 is a schematic view of a process structure provided by a third preferred embodiment of the present invention; FIG. 6 is a structure of the vertical light-emitting diode provided by the third preferred embodiment; 7 is a schematic structural view of a vertical light-emitting diode according to a fourth preferred embodiment of the present invention; 15 is shown in the first to third figures, which is the first comparison of the present invention. The method for fabricating the light-emitting diode 2 provided by the preferred embodiment has the following steps: 1. Please refer to the reference of the first drawing to prepare a substrate 21 which can be sapphire, GaAs or germanium and the like. a material having a good bond material to reduce the lattice defects of the subsequent semiconductor material, and forming a semiconductor layer 22' on the substrate by epitaxial processing using a substrate material such as GaN or AlGaInP. The N-type semiconductor layer 22 defines a doped region 22 and an ohmic contact region 22 s [type dopant material is formed in the doped region 22 - - N-type region 222, undoped with the N-type dopant material The lower domain is formed as an undoped region 223. 5, in conjunction with the second figure, an active layer 23 is formed on the N-type region 222, and a P-type semiconductor is formed on the active layer 23 with a positive doping material corresponding to the material of the N-type semiconductor layer 22. The layer 24, wherein the active layer 23 is a semiconductor optoelectronic material having a good bonding property and a low energy gap with the N-type region 222 and the p-type semiconductor layer 24, such as the hGaN ίο material provided in the embodiment, thus forming the N The quantum well between the pattern region 222 and the P-type semiconductor layer 24 allows the electron holes from the N-type region 222 and the P-type semiconductor layer 24 to be easily generated by the electron-hole bonding reaction of the active layer 23 to generate photons. The light is emitted, so the N-type region 222, the active layer 23, and the p-type semiconductor layer 24 form a light-emitting layer 2 of the light-emitting diode 2. 15 is formed on the P-type semiconductor layer 24 to form an electrode layer 25, which may have good adhesion to the p-type semiconductor layer 24 such as ruthenium, Ru〇2, Zn0 or Ni〇, and has good conductivity and can be It is made of a transparent transparent electrode, and a reflective film 251 is plated on the surface of the electrode layer 25. It can be a metal material with good conductivity and reflectivity such as aluminum, silver, platinum, cobalt, indium, tungsten or gold. The photon generated by the photoelectric reaction does not permeate from the surface of the electrode layer 25, but can be reflected toward the light emitting layer 20, and the electrode layer 25 can transmit an applied potential to the p-type semiconductor layer. twenty four. Then, a positive electrode 201 is formed on the reflective film 251, and a negative electrode 202 is formed on the ohmic contact region 221 of the N-plastic semiconductor layer 22 to make ohmic contact of the light-emitting diode 2 with an applied potential as 7200834976. The substrate is formed on the lower surface of the light-emitting body 2, that is, the surface of the substrate 21 is made of a protective layer 26, which can be made of a photoresist material, SiO 2 , Si 3 N 4 or metal nickel, and then formed by a lithography process. a lithographic pattern; 5 and an isotropic dry etching method such as inductively coupled plasma reactive ion etching (ICP-RIE), which is selectively used in combination with a reaction gas (such as chlorine gas, boron trichloride, methane, etc.) The surface of the substrate 21 is engraved to achieve the effect of forming the surface of the substrate 21 into a photonic crystal structure; finally, the remaining portion of the protective layer 26 is removed, so that the surface of the substrate 21 forms a crystal surface of the photonic crystal structure ίο 210, which enables the luminescence When the photon generated by the photoreaction of the layer 20 travels toward the crystal surface 210, the incident angle of the photon incident on the crystal surface 21 is smaller than the total reflection critical angle of the photon in the substrate 21, thus being fabricated as shown in the third figure. The light-emitting diode 2 is shown. The light-emitting diode 2 provided in this embodiment is electrically connected to the conventional flip-chip module u by the upper surface of the positive electrode 201 and the negative electrode 202, thereby obtaining an applied voltage to respectively provide the p-type. The semiconductor layer 24 and the N-type region 222 generate an applied electric field required for the photoelectric reaction, and when the photons formed by the photoelectric reaction travel toward the electrode layer 25, the reflection by the reflective film 251 is turned toward the crystal surface 21 Therefore, all photons can be permeable to the surface 210 of the 2 〇 crystal and the incident angle of the photon incident on the crystal surface is smaller than the critical angle of total reflection in the substrate 21, so that the crystal surface 210 does not occur. The total reflection is the second absorption of the substrate 21, so that the photon is absorbed by the substrate material more effectively than the conventional light-emitting diode structure. Therefore, the light-emitting diode 2 provided by the present invention can have a high height of 8 200834976 Luminous efficiency and high brightness. Of course, if the photon is absorbed by the material more effectively, the present invention provides a light-emitting diode 3 according to the second preferred embodiment shown in FIG. 4, which is provided with the light-emitting diode 2 provided in the above embodiment. The difference lies in: 5 after the electrode layer 25 is formed on the P-type semiconductor layer 24, the surface of the surface of the electrode layer 25 is subjected to the formation of the photonic crystal structure to form a crystal surface 253, so that photons are incident on the crystal surface 253. The incident angle is smaller than the total reflection critical angle of the photon in the electrode layer 25, and a reflective film 254 is plated on the crystal surface 253, after which the positive electrode 2〇1 is formed on the reflective film 254, thus The incident angle of the photon reflected by the reflective film 254 toward the luminescent layer 20 is also smaller than the critical angle of the total reflection of the photon in the electrode layer 25, so that the photon does not undergo the total reflection of the interface in the electrode layer 25, and the resonance is repeated. The total reflection effect is absorbed by the material. Furthermore, the substrate 21 is first removed by grinding, chemical etching or laser stripping, so that the lower surface of the N-type semiconductor layer 22 is exposed, and the lower surface of the N-type semiconductor layer 22 is subjected to the above formation. The photonic crystal structure effect is processed into a crystal surface 30, and when the photon is caused to travel toward the crystal surface 3, the incident angle of the photon incident on the crystal surface 30 is smaller than the undoped photon in the N-type semiconductor layer 22. The critical angle of total reflection of the region 223, and 20 photons are not absorbed by the substrate material, and the characteristics of the high luminance of the light-emitting diode 3 are more effectively provided. Please refer to the structure of the vertical light-emitting diode 4 of the third preferred embodiment of the present invention as shown in the fifth to sixth figures, which can be made similar to that provided by the above embodiment. The structure has the same material characteristics, 9 200834976 and has the following steps: an N-type semiconductor layer 42 is formed on a substrate 41; an n-type region 420 is doped with an N-type doping material on the N-type semiconductor layer 42, undoped Miscellaneous N-doped material 5 - undoped region 421; Bu (4) becomes - an activation layer is formed on the N-type region 420, and then the activation layer 43 is made of a material corresponding to the N-type semiconductor layer 42 The positive doping material forms a P-type semiconductor layer 44'. Therefore, the N-type region 42A, the active layer 43 and the P-type semiconductor layer 44 form a light-emitting layer 4 for performing photoelectric reaction. The electrode layer 45 is formed on the semiconductor layer 44, and the surface of the electrode layer 45 is processed into a crystal surface 451 through the effect of forming the photon (4) structure, so that the incident angle of the photon incident on the crystal surface 451 is smaller than that of the photon at the electrode. The critical angle of total reflection in layer 45, which is then plated on the surface of the crystal 451 The upper reflective film 452' is such that photons generated by the photoelectric reaction are reflected by the anti-I5 film 452 and directly incident into the light-emitting layer 4; the substrate 41 is polished, chemically etched, or laser-peeled. Removing, and removing the undoped region 421 of the N-type semiconductor layer 42 in a reactive ion-removal manner to expose the surface of the N-type region 420; and forming the photons on the surface of the N-type region 420 The crystal structure 2 is formed into a crystal surface 422, and a positive and negative electrode 4〇1 and 402 are respectively formed on the reflective film 452 and the crystal surface 422, respectively, and is formed as shown in FIG. The vertical light-emitting diode 4 is. Therefore, the vertical light-emitting diode 4 provided in this embodiment has the effect of the above embodiments, and removes the undoped region 421 which is not photo-generated to generate 200834976 photons, thereby reducing photons. The undoped region 421 is absorbed by the material of the N-type semiconductor layer 42 to more effectively increase the luminous efficiency of the light-emitting diode, and the vertical light-emitting diode 4 has a higher luminance characteristic. 5 of course, in order to more effectively reduce the absorption phenomenon of the photon-receiving material, the present invention further provides a vertical light-emitting diode 5 according to the fourth preferred embodiment shown in FIG. 7 , which is compared with the above-mentioned vertical light-emitting diode. In the fourth embodiment, the reflective film 452 is omitted, and the positive and negative electrodes 401 and 402 are respectively formed on the crystal surfaces 451 and 422, thereby forming the vertical light-emitting diode 5 capable of double-sided illumination.
