Description of the Invention: [Technical Field of the Invention] [0001] The present invention is a method for manufacturing a light-emitting m-chip, in particular, a substrate for preventing a light-emitting diode chip (four) and a light for improving process yield A method of manufacturing a diode chip. • [Prior Art] [0002] #光二极体 is a way of using electrical energy to convert into light energy. The constituent material of the light-emitting diode crystal is a semiconductor, which contains a positively charged cesium hole ratio, which is called a P-type semiconductor, and a negatively charged electron is called a N-type semiconductor earth type semiconductor and N. The junction where the conductors meet is referred to as the PN junction. Applying a voltage across the positive and negative terminals of the light-emitting diode. When the current passes, the electrons are combined with the hole, and the combined energy is emitted in the form of light. The wavelength of the light is determined according to the energy level of the material used. It will emit light of different colors. Most of the light-emitting diodes are classified into the three-five semiconductors, because their constituent elements belong to the main and five families of the periodic table, and the three elements such as ◎18, marry, marriage, etc. Nitrogen, scales, etc. Gallium phosphide and aluminum gamma gallium, because of low brightness, early development time, and contains two or three elements 'more commonly known as traditional binary or ternary LED. The indium gallium scale is composed of four kinds of tl pigments, which are called quaternary (10). The vaporized marshalling material is also called a nitride LED because it can emit blue light that cannot be emitted by the above materials. The light-emitting diode is mainly made of a crystal grain. Here, a gallium nitride light-emitting diode is taken as an example to describe a method for fabricating the crystal grain. The light-emitting diode is a semiconductor material and needs to be epitaxially grown first, that is, a p-type and an N-type semiconductor are grown on the substrate. The substrate material used for GaN LED is sapphire, 099119354 Form No. A0101 Page 3 of 11 '99292301-0-0, 201145564 Because sapphire is not conductive, it is impossible to make electrodes on it. It is necessary to use more complicated techniques to make the positive and negative electrodes On the same plane, the process is more complicated. It is common practice to use a dry etching machine to remove portions of the p-type semiconductor portion of the surface to expose the underlying N-type semiconductor, and then to form electrodes on the P and N-type semiconductors so that current can be turned on to emit light. At present, the gallium nitride-based light-emitting diode is still dominated by a 2" sapphire substrate, but the future development trend will be dominated by a 4" sapphire substrate, but the lattice between the sapphire substrate and the vaporized martensite crystal structure is not The warpage caused by the matching of the sapphire substrate, especially when the size of the sapphire substrate is changed from 2" to 4", the warpage of the sapphire substrate is severely increased. The main reason is that the size is increased and the rigidity is relatively reduced, and the total stress after epitaxy also increases with the increase of the size, resulting in a sharp increase in the degree of warpage, which in turn causes a loss in process yield. In addition, because the crystal structure of the murine system is not matched on the sapphire substrate, there is stress generation, which is a kind of tensile stress with greater thickness and sapphire substrate size increase, and the buffer layer The thickness of the sapphire substrate is not uniform after warping, and the difference between the center point and the edge temperature is caused by the temperature difference, which causes the process yield to decrease. Although the warpage of the 2" sapphire substrate is mild, it still plagues everyone, not to mention the future development of the 4" sapphire substrate as the main axis, a 2" sapphire substrate if the LED in the long multilayer quantum well structure When the warp curvature is 20 km_1, it will produce an error of 2 nm wavelength. However, there will be an error of 8 nm wavelength on the 4” sapphire substrate. For example, a 2” sapphire substrate warp 10 knf1 will result in a loss of 3% yield ( Assuming that the 5nm wavelength error is within the allowable range, then the 4" sapphire substrate will have 10% 099119354 Form No. A0101 Page 4 / Total 11 Page 0992034301-0 201145564 Yield loss, so the size of the sapphire substrate changes from 2" to 4" At this time, the sapphire substrate warpage phenomenon is dramatically increased, and the yield will be lost. θ [0003]

The illuminating diode chip effectively prevents warpage of the sapphire substrate of each of the illuminating diode chips, even if the sapphire substrate of the illuminating diode chip generates the slab 5 along the plurality of dividing trenches around the stray crystal growth regions Naturally split, it will not damage other LED chips, which will effectively improve the yield of the process. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a method for fabricating a light-emitting diode wafer, which mainly divides a large-sized substrate into a plurality of small-sized epitaxial growth regions, and grows a crystal structure in each of the remote crystal growth regions.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for fabricating a light emitting diode chip, comprising: taking a substrate; dividing the substrate into a plurality of epitaxial growth regions, the substrate having at least one first dividing trench and at least one And dividing the plurality of epitaxial structures into the epitaxial growth regions to form a plurality of light emitting diode chips. [Embodiment] 099119354 Form No. 1010101 Page 5 of 11 0992034301-0 201145564 [0004] In order to enable your review committee to have a better understanding and understanding of the structural features and effects achieved by the reviewer, The preferred embodiment and the detailed description are as follows: Please refer to the first figure, which is a flow chart of a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, a conventional method for fabricating a light-emitting diode wafer is to deposit an epitaxial structure on a substrate to form a light-emitting diode wafer, which is mainly because the epitaxial structure grows on the substrate and the lattice mismatch occurs. Therefore, stress will be generated between the epitaxial structure and the substrate. As the size of the LED is larger, the warpage of the substrate of the LED substrate is larger, and the substrate of the LED substrate is warped. After the koji, the surface temperature of the illuminating diode chip is not uniform, and the difference between the center point of the illuminating diode chip and the edge temperature thereof may increase the process yield due to the temperature difference. Therefore, the present embodiment provides a method for manufacturing a light-emitting diode wafer, which mainly divides a large-sized substrate into a plurality of small-sized amorphous regions, and grows an epitaxial structure in each epitaxial growth region to form a complex LED. Wafer. That is, the size of the light-emitting diode chip is reduced, and the substrate of the light-emitting diode chip is effectively prevented from being warped. Even if the substrate of the light-emitting diode chip is warped, it is naturally split along the plurality of divided grooves and is not damaged. Other LED chips can effectively improve the yield of the process. The manufacturing method of this embodiment first performs step S10 to take a substrate, wherein the substrate is a sapphire substrate. Please refer to the second figure, which is a schematic diagram of a divided substrate according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the step S12 is performed to divide the substrate 10 into a plurality of epitaxial growth regions 101. The substrate device 10 has at least one first dividing trench 103 and at least one second dividing trench 105, and the first dividing trench 103 and The second divided trenches 105 are perpendicular to each other, 099119354 Form No. A0101, Page 6 / Total 11 pages 0992034301-0 201145564 These epitaxial growth regions 101 are separated by the first divided trenches 103 and the second divided trenches 105. The method of dividing the substrate 10 may use laser processing of the substrate 10 and cutting out the first dividing trench 103 and the second dividing trench 105; or etching the substrate 10 by chemical etching, and etching the first dividing trench 103 and the first Two divided trenches 105. The depths of the first dividing trench 103 and the second dividing trench 105 are between 10 μm and 500 //m. The first divided trenches 103 and the second divided trenches 105 are used to separate the epitaxial growth regions 101 on the substrate 10, and the number of the first divided trenches 103 and the second divided trenches 105 is larger. The greater the number of epitaxial growth regions 101, the smaller the size of each of the light-emitting diode wafers. Therefore, the number of the remote crystal growth regions 101 is determined mainly according to the size of the light-emitting diode chips. Finally, step S14 is performed to grow a plurality of epitaxial structures in the epitaxial growth regions, and each epitaxial structure corresponds to an epitaxial growth region to form a plurality of light emitting diode chips. The epitaxial structure is a gallium nitride-based epitaxial structure, and at least includes an N-type semiconductor layer, a light-emitting layer and a P-type semiconductor layer. The insect crystal structure is a well-known technology in the field of light emission, and will not be described herein. It can be seen from the above that the present invention provides a method for manufacturing a light-emitting diode wafer, which mainly divides a large-sized substrate into a plurality of small-sized odd-crystal growth regions, and grows a remote crystal structure on a mother-shaped growth region. The invention provides a method for manufacturing a plurality of light-emitting diode chips, which is to reduce the size of the light-emitting diode chip, thereby effectively preventing warpage of the substrate of the light-emitting diode chip, even if the substrate of the light-emitting diode chip is generated. The warpage also splits along the first divided trench and the second divided trench, so that the other light emitting diode chips are not damaged, and the yield of the process can be effectively improved. In summary, the present invention is novel, progressive and available for industry 099119354 Form No. A0101 Page 7 / Total 11 Page 0992034301-0 201145564 The user should meet the requirements of the patent application stipulated in the Patent Law of China.
