In an embodiment of the invention, the doping concentration of the first protrusion and the second protrusion provided by the invention is greater than the doping concentration of the body layer.
And when the P-type window layer provided by the embodiment of the invention comprises the first protrusion, the metal reflecting layer is an Au metal reflecting layer. When the P-type window layer provided by the embodiment of the invention comprises the second protrusion, the metal reflecting layer is an Ag metal reflecting layer, and the metal bonding layer is an Au metal bonding layer.
The embodiment of the invention provides a light-emitting diode and a manufacturing method thereof, wherein an ODR reflector layer comprises a metal reflecting layer and a dielectric film layer positioned on one side of the metal reflecting layer, which is far away from a back electrode, wherein the ODR reflector layer comprises a plurality of first through holes or a plurality of second through holes, the first through holes penetrate through the dielectric film layer from the side, which is far away from the back electrode, of the ODR reflector layer, and the second through holes penetrate through a lamination of the dielectric film layer and the metal reflecting layer from the side, which is far away from the back electrode, of the ODR reflector layer; the P-type window layer comprises a main body layer and a plurality of first bulges or a plurality of second bulges connected with the main body layer, the first bulges are positioned in the first through holes and form ohmic contact with the metal reflecting layer, and the second bulges are positioned in the second through holes and form ohmic contact with the metal bonding layer. And when the embodiment of the invention is used for manufacturing the light-emitting diode, the Lift-off process is adopted to realize the self-alignment of the bulge of the P-type window layer and the ODR reflector layer. Therefore, the P-type window layer provided by the embodiment of the invention respectively and correspondingly realizes ohmic contact with the metal reflecting layer or the metal bonding layer through the first protrusion or the second protrusion, thereby avoiding the occurrence of metal faults in the through hole when the metal material is filled in the through hole to realize ohmic contact, ensuring high reliability of the light-emitting diode, and simultaneously solving the problems of high preparation cost and complex process flow caused by filling the metal material.
The previous description of the disclosed embodiments is provided to enable any person skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the generic principles defined herein may be applied to other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Thus, the present invention is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown herein but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
