Abstract: An epitaxial structure of a gallium nitride series semiconductor device and a process of forming the same are described. A first buffer layer of gallium nitride is epitaxially formed on a substrate at a first temperature. A second buffer layer of indium gallium nitride is formed on the first buffer layer at a second temperature. The second temperature increases up to a third temperature, during which precursors including In(CH3)3 and NH3 are used for surface treatment. A high-temperature gallium nitride is formed at the third temperature. The buffer layer and the way to form such a buffer layer allow improved crystal configuration and lowered defect density, thereby increasing the performance and service life of a semiconductor device.
Abstract: A GaN-based light-emitting device and the fabricating method for the same are described. The light-emitting device is a light-emitting body with a light extraction layer thereon. The light-emitting body has some GaN-based layers and is capable of emitting a light when energy is applied. The light extraction layer is a double layered structure having a current spreading layer and a micro-structure layer, or a single layered structure without the current spreading layer. The micro-structure layer is a TiN layer with a nano-net structure obtained by nitridation of a Ti layer or a Pt layer with metal clusters thereon obtained by annealing of a Pt layer.
Abstract: Disclosed are a GaN based compound semiconductor light emitting diode (LED) and a manufacturing method therefor. In the LED, a combination of a light extraction layer and an adaptive layer is formed over a multi-layer epitaxial structure,wherein the light extraction layer is a light transmissible impurity doped metal oxide and the adaptive layer is a Ni/Au layer used to enhance ohmic contact between the light extraction layer and the multi-layer epitaxial structure.
Abstract: Disclosed are a vertical GaN based light-emitting device (LED) structure and the manufacturing method thereof. In the structure and the corresponding method, a substrate unit having a mask is used to form a multi-layer epitaxial structure and the substrate and the multi-layer epitaxial structure are separated at the mask. After the multi-layer epitaxial structure is extracted, a metal reflector may be disposed thereunder. Next, a conductive substrate is bonded to the metal reflector. Next, an upper surface of the multi-layer structure is disposed with a p-electrode and a bottom side of the conductive substrate with an n-electrode whereby an vertical LED structure is formed.
