Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to field of semiconductor manufacture, particularly a kind of LED epitaxial slice and its manufacturing approach.
Background technology
At present, (light emitting diode, LED) primary structure of epitaxial wafer comprises light-emitting diode: substrate, resilient coating, n type semiconductor layer, active area luminescent layer and p type semiconductor layer.Between n type semiconductor layer and p type semiconductor layer, is the PN junction that the interface of p type and n type semiconductor layer constitutes as the active area luminescent layer of LED epitaxial wafer core.Along with double heterojunction and application and metal-organic chemical vapor deposition equipment (MOCVD) development of technology of multi-quantum pit structure in the active area luminescent layer, at sapphire (Al
2O
3) gallium nitride based light emitting diode (GaN basedLED) epitaxial wafer of successfully having grown on the substrate of material, produce blue-ray LED and green light LED.
In order on the LED epitaxial wafer, to apply drive current, also need to make the p electrode in the p type semiconductor layer, at n type semiconductor layer manufacturing n electrode, and draw lead, with the counter electrode of lead connecting circuit substrate at p electrode and n electrode.After the LED epitaxial wafer that completes cuts into led chip, also must be fixed on the support.Above-mentioned making electrode, draw lead and be called encapsulation to circuit substrate and cutting, fixation process, the led chip after the encapsulation is called tube core.Different LED according to encapsulation back exiting surface is divided into formal dress (Normal) structure and upside-down mounting (Flip Chip) structure.Wherein, the exiting surface of positive assembling structure is the p type semiconductor layer, and non-exiting surface is a substrate, and the exiting surface of inverted structure is a substrate, and non-exiting surface is the current-diffusion layer on the p type semiconductor layer.LED epitaxial wafer after the encapsulation is called tube core.
Be 470 nanometers to the blue-ray LED of 430 nano wavebands with wave-length coverage be example; Sapphire Substrate gallium nitride based LED formal dress section of structure is as shown in Figure 1; Sapphire Substrate 101 device growth faces be the front have successively resilient coating 102, n type gallium nitride layer 103 as n type semiconductor layer, active area luminescent layer 104 and p type gallium nitride layer 105 as the p type semiconductor layer, because the high p type doping difficulty of p type gallium nitride layer makes p type gallium nitride layer conductivity very limited.For being evenly distributed of electric current requires on p type gallium nitride layer surface deposition current diffusion layer 106 again, form by nickel and gold usually.Because Sapphire Substrate is non-conductive; Electrode can't be made on substrate; Usually adopt lithographic method to remove sub-fraction current-diffusion layer 106, p N-type semiconductor N 105 and active area luminescent layer 104 and expose the n type semiconductor layer, respectively p electrode 107 and n electrode 108 are placed on current-diffusion layer 106 and the n type semiconductor layer 103 then.In the formal dress construction packages, the light of active area luminescent layer outgoing takes out from uppermost p type gallium nitride layer, and the Sapphire Substrate back side links to each other with support.Though current-diffusion layer has improved the luminous efficiency of active area luminescent layer, meeting absorption portion light reduces light extraction efficiency.In order to reduce the absorption of emergent light, the thickness of current-diffusion layer should reduce to the hundreds of nanometer.The minimizing of thickness limited conversely again current-diffusion layer on p type gallium nitride layer surface all even ability that spreads big electric current reliably.Simultaneously, the heat of LED mainly results from the very thin active area luminescent layer, and the device after the encapsulation completion, its heat then mainly relies on Sapphire Substrate to scatter to the heat conduction of support.The conductive coefficient of Sapphire Substrate is very little, so the positive assembling structure of LED can make the very big temperature difference of generation between support and active area luminescent layer, causes die temperature to rise, thereby influences the performance of device.In addition, the lead that the p electrode of this structure and p electrode are drawn also can block the part emergent light, so die devices power, light extraction efficiency and the hot property of the positive assembling structure of this LED all can not be optimum.
In order to overcome the deficiency of the positive assembling structure of blue-ray LED, proposed with Sapphire Substrate 101 as exiting surface, the current-diffusion layer 106 on the p type gallium nitride layer 105 is the LED inverted structure of non-exiting surface., the GaN-based LED epitaxial wafer growth of Sapphire Substrate makes p electrode 107 and n electrode 108 after accomplishing; The epitaxial wafer growth is identical with positive assembling structure with method for making its electrode; The device growth face of Sapphire Substrate is linked to each other with support through heat-conducting substrate 209; Accomplish encapsulation, obtain the inverted structure profile (support does not draw) of the gallium nitride based LED of Sapphire Substrate as shown in Figure 2.Because Sapphire Substrate is transparent, the Sapphire Substrate after the upside-down mounting becomes exiting surface up, and p electrode and the upside-down mounting of n electrode simultaneously can not blocked from the light of Sapphire Substrate exiting surface outgoing, thereby improve light extraction efficiency below.After adopting the flip chip bonding epitaxial slice structure, because silicon is the good conductor of heat, utilize its heat-conducting substrate as heat radiation, its radiating effect also will be much better than the positive assembling structure of LED.
The light extraction efficiency of LED is by luminous efficiency and the common decision of extraction efficiency, and therefore, the extraction efficiency that how to improve LED becomes an importance of further raising LED luminous efficiency.As everyone knows, the photon that LED active area luminescent layer sends is that spontaneous radiation produces each homogeny of its direction.Therefore, after the LED encapsulation, no matter formal dress or inverted structure, the heat-conducting glue that most of emergent light of the directive support that the active area luminescent layer sends can be connected support and epitaxial wafer absorbs, and has reduced the extraction efficiency of LED.Simultaneously,, can assemble great amount of heat, further reduce light extraction efficiency and the reliability of LED because the radiating effect of heat-conducting glue is unsatisfactory.

2As protective layer,, perhaps in the subsequent technique preparation, consider the thickness and the surface appearance of this protective layer in PECVD so first back of the body coating 401 can prepare; In the present embodiment, first back of the body coating 401 prepares thicknesses of layers 1000 nanometers, on-line monitoring deposition rate in PECVD.First back of the body coating 401 can ensure that from the light of non-exiting surface directive first back of the body coating 401 directions incident angle is reflected greater than the light 100% of 36 degree, has also played the effect of protection LED simultaneously;
In this step, the LED epitaxial wafer specifically is meant, the resilient coating 102 that has successively on Sapphire Substrate 101 device side, n type gallium nitride layer 103, active area luminescent layer 104, p type gallium nitride layer 105, and the current-diffusion layer 106 on the p type gallium nitride layer;
In this step, Sapphire Substrate is as exiting surface, and active area luminescent layer emergent light shines first back of the body coating, 401, the first back of the body coating 401 through the current-diffusion layer 106 as non-exiting surface and makes the light generation total reflection of incidence angle greater than 36 degree.
Multilayer dielectricity and reflective metal layer that step 2, the high low-refraction of on first back of the body coating 401, growing successively replace are as second back of the body coating 402; Wherein high refractive index medium is selected TiO
2, low refractive index dielectric is selected SiO2.Adopt the evaporation coating mode, on first back of the body coating 401,, change Coating Materials, depositing Ti O successively through the rotation crucible
2And SiO
2Periodic structure alternately, deposition high refractive index medium TiO earlier
2, back deposition low refractive index dielectric SiO
2Sedimentary condition is: substrate heating temperature is 150 degrees centigrade, and vacuum degree is 5.0*10
-3Pascal, deposition rate 3 dust per seconds, lower deposition rate is convenient to accurately control the thickness of each layer film, crystal-vibration-chip on-line monitoring deposition rate.In this step, the number of plies scope of the multilayer dielectricity that high low-refraction replaces is 4 layers to 50 layers.If with a high low refractive index dielectric layer is one-period, periodicity is 2 to 25 integers in the cycle.It is to be noted that especially high refractive index medium thickness in each cycle and low refractive index dielectric thickness are not a definite value, reach the high reflectance of incidence angle less than all angles emergent light of 36 degree with the high low refractive index dielectric layer combination of different-thickness.
Reduce heating-up temperature to 50 degree, adopt molybdenum boat vapor deposition reflective metals silver, vapor deposition speed is 10 dust per seconds, and deposition rate helps improving the reflectivity of argent faster, and silver film thickness is 150 nanometers.Combination through argent and high low-refraction multilayer dielectric film structure can make incidence angle less than the average reflectance of the light of 36 degree greater than 98%.In conjunction with the effect of back of the body coating one, can make the light of directive p type gallium nitride, reach more than 99% at the reflectivity of full angle.Near the limit of 100% reflection, the light of the non-exiting surface of different angles directive is all reflected back.Therefore, the light that reflects back penetrates the extraction efficiency that has not only improved LED by exiting surface, and because the emergent light of the non-exiting surface of directive reduces, has reduced the gathering of heat, thereby improved light extraction efficiency and the reliability of LED.
In this step, the total thickness of second back of the body coating 402 is that 200 nanometers are to 5000 nanometers;
In this step, the effect of second back of the body coating 402 is to be reflected into the emergent light of firing angle less than 36 degree.
Step 3, growth single-layer metal film or the combination of metal multilayer film system on second back of the body coating 402 are as the 3rd back of the body coating 403;
In this step, the material of single-layer metal film or metal multilayer film system combination is one or more the combination among Au, Ni, Cr, the Ti;
In this step, the thickness range of the 3rd back of the body coating 403 is that 50 nanometers are to 1000 nanometers.
In this step, the 3rd back of the body coating 403 prevents that as metal protective film the reflectivity that the reflective metal layer oxidation in second back of the body coating 402 causes from descending the heat dissipation metal rete when conduct simultaneously links to each other with heat-conducting substrate.。
Step 4, with the appointed area of ICP etching successively the 3rd back of the body coating 403, second back of the body coating 402, first back of the body coating 401; Up to exposing current-diffusion layer; Again the appointed area of p type gallium nitride layer, current-diffusion layer and active area luminescent layer is carried out etching successively, until exposing n type gallium nitride layer; Manufacturing n electrode on the n type gallium nitride layer that exposes; On p type gallium nitride layer, make the p electrode, and the counter electrode on p electrode and n electrode and the heat-conducting substrate is welded through the eutectic mode, need ensure that simultaneously the 3rd back of the body coating 403 contacts with the good of heat-conducting substrate.Forming the present invention as shown in Figure 4 is the gallium nitride based LED inverted structure profile of Sapphire Substrate.
The above is merely preferred embodiment of the present invention, is not to be used to limit protection scope of the present invention.All within spirit of the present invention and principle, any modification of being done, be equal to replacement, improvement etc., all should be included within protection scope of the present invention.
