Abstract
一种半导体发光器件的制备方法,通过改变刻蚀的工艺参数使得刻蚀得到的外延层侧壁倾角为60°~90°,接近于垂直,从而避免了生产中的芯片开裂等现象,提高生产良率。
Description
本发明涉及光电器件领域。更具体而言,本发明涉及一种半导体发光器件的制备方法。
在LED芯片制备工艺中,蓝宝石衬底作为GaN基LED外延生长的主要衬底,其导电性和散热性都比较差。由于蓝宝石衬底导电性差,传统的GaN基LED采用横向结构,导致电流堵塞和发热。而较差的导热性能限制了发光器件的功率。采用激光剥离技术将蓝宝石衬底去除后,将发光二极管做成垂直结构,可以有效解决散热和出光问题。为了提高GaN基LED的光效和功率,提出了激光剥离蓝宝石衬底技术,即在蓝宝石衬底上制备外延层之后,将外延层与支撑基板结合,然后采用激光剥离方法去除蓝宝石衬底,将器件做成垂直结构。在蓝宝石衬底剥离之前通常刻蚀外延生长在蓝宝石衬底上的GaN外延层以产生多个分立的管芯,方便后续的芯片切割工艺,提高生产效率。目前,通常采用感应耦合等离子体(Inductively Coupled Plasma,简称ICP)刻蚀法刻蚀外延层。ICP刻蚀的原理是在交变的电磁场中,气体产生放电现象进入等离子态,等离子垂直作用于基片,并与其反应生成可挥发的气态物质,以达到刻蚀的目的。在ICP工艺中,ICP离子源功率、射频功率、气体流量、腔室压力等参数都会对刻蚀产生影响。但是,现有的ICP工艺参数往往使得等离子体不能垂直作用于基板表面,即刻蚀得到的侧壁倾角远远小于90°,使得在后续的激光剥离工艺中产生裂纹等现象,降低了芯片的性能及生产良率。
发明内容
为了解决在芯片生产过程中芯片由于激光剥离产生裂纹导致生产良率低的问题,本发明提出一种半导体发光器件的制备方法,该方法包括在蓝宝石衬底上依次生长缓冲层、N型GaN层、活性层、P型GaN层,形成外延层,该方法还包括刻蚀所述外延层至暴露蓝宝石衬底以产生多个分立的管芯,其中刻蚀后的外延层侧壁倾角为60°~90°,该方法还包括将刻蚀后的外延层与支撑基板结合,采用激光剥离方法去除蓝宝石衬底。
优选地,所述外延层侧壁倾角为75°~85°。
优选地,所述刻蚀后的外延层与支撑基板结合的方法为共晶键合或涂胶后固化。
优选地,所述管芯之间都保留部分外延层作为隔离带,并且管芯四周的隔离带至少有一处是不相连的。
优选地,所述隔离带与相邻管芯边缘之间槽的宽度为1-100微米。
优选地,所述隔离带的宽度为5-100微米。
本发明的有益效果:
与现有技术相比,本发明提供一种半导体发光器件的制备方法,该方法通过改变刻蚀的工艺参数,使得刻蚀后的外延层侧壁倾角为60°~90°,接近于垂直,从而产生较少的斜面,更有利于后续的制造工艺,提高了性能及良率。
