技术领域technical field

本发明有关于一种氮化物半导体结构及半导体发光元件,尤其是指一种于多重量子井结构中使用四元氮化铝铟镓的阻障层与三元氮化铟镓的井层的氮化物半导体结构及半导体发光元件,属于半导体技术领域。The present invention relates to a nitride semiconductor structure and a semiconductor light-emitting element, in particular to a nitrogen compound that uses a barrier layer of quaternary aluminum indium gallium nitride and a well layer of ternary indium gallium nitride in a multiple quantum well structure A compound semiconductor structure and a semiconductor light-emitting element belong to the technical field of semiconductors.

背景技术Background technique

一般而言,氮化物发光二极管是将一缓冲层先形成于基板上,再于缓冲层上依序磊晶成长n型半导体层、发光层以及p型半导体层;接着,利用微影与蚀刻工艺移除部分的p型半导体层、部分的发光层,直至暴露出部分的n型半导体层为止;然后,分别于n型半导体层的暴露部分以及p型半导体层上形成n型电极与p型电极,而制作出发光二极管;其中,发光层具有氮化物半导体多重量子井结构(MQW),而多重量子井结构包括以重复的方式交替设置的井层(well)和阻障层(barrier),因为井层具有相对阻障层较低之能隙,使得在上述多重量子井结构中的每一个井层可以在量子力学上限制电子和电洞,造成电子和电洞分别从n型半导体层和p型半导体层注入,并在井层中结合,而发射出光粒子。In general, a nitride light-emitting diode is first formed on a substrate with a buffer layer, and then epitaxially grows an n-type semiconductor layer, a light-emitting layer, and a p-type semiconductor layer on the buffer layer; then, using lithography and etching processes removing part of the p-type semiconductor layer and part of the light-emitting layer until a part of the n-type semiconductor layer is exposed; then, forming an n-type electrode and a p-type electrode on the exposed part of the n-type semiconductor layer and the p-type semiconductor layer respectively , and produce a light-emitting diode; wherein, the light-emitting layer has a nitride semiconductor multiple quantum well structure (MQW), and the multiple quantum well structure includes well layers (well) and barrier layers (barrier) that are alternately arranged in a repeated manner, because The well layer has a lower energy gap than the barrier layer, so that each well layer in the above-mentioned multiple quantum well structure can limit electrons and holes in quantum mechanics, causing electrons and holes to flow from the n-type semiconductor layer and p Type semiconductor layer is injected and combined in the well layer to emit light particles.

目前,在多重量子井结构中约有1至30层的井层或阻障层,阻障层通常系以氮化镓GaN的材料所形成,而井层是以氮化铟镓InGaN所组成;然而,上述的多重量子井结构由于氮化铟镓与氮化镓晶格间存在有约10-15%的晶格不匹配度,导致晶格间产生强大的应力作用,使得在多重量子井结构中有压电场(piezoelectric field)的产生,且于成长氮化铟镓的过程中,当铟含量愈高时,所产生的压电场也就愈大,对晶体结构的影响也就愈大,而随着成长的厚度愈厚时,所累积的应力也就愈大,当晶体结构成长至超过某一个临界厚度(critical thickness),导致晶体结构无法再承受此应力作用时,则会产生较大的缺陷结构(例如V-形缺陷),使得一般井层具有一定的厚度限制,一般约为3nm左右。At present, there are about 1 to 30 well layers or barrier layers in the multiple quantum well structure. The barrier layer is usually formed of gallium nitride GaN, and the well layer is composed of indium gallium nitride InGaN; However, the above-mentioned multiple quantum well structure has a lattice mismatch of about 10-15% between the InGaN and GaN lattices, resulting in strong stress between the lattices, making the multiple quantum well structure There is a piezoelectric field (piezoelectric field), and in the process of growing InGaN, the higher the indium content, the larger the piezoelectric field generated, and the greater the impact on the crystal structure , and the greater the thickness of the growth, the greater the accumulated stress. When the crystal structure grows beyond a certain critical thickness (critical thickness), the crystal structure can no longer bear the stress, and a larger Large defect structures (such as V-shaped defects) make the general well layer have a certain thickness limit, generally about 3nm.

此外,上述的多重量子井结构也会因强大的极化电场作用的存在,而造成能带严重倾斜或弯曲,导致电子与电洞分开局限在井层的两侧,使得电子与电洞波函数(wavefunction)在空间上的重叠率降低,而降低电子与电洞的辐射再结合速率(radiativerecombination rate)及内部量子效率(IQE)。In addition, the above-mentioned multiple quantum well structure will also cause serious inclination or bending of the energy band due to the existence of a strong polarization electric field, causing electrons and holes to be separated and confined on both sides of the well layer, making the wave functions of electrons and holes (wavefunction) The overlap rate in space is reduced, and the radiation recombination rate (radiative recombination rate) and internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of electrons and holes are reduced.

鉴于上述现有的氮化物半导体发光元件在实际实施上仍具有多处的缺失,因此,研发出一种新型的氮化物半导体结构及半导体发光元件仍是本领域亟待解决的问题之一。In view of the fact that the existing nitride semiconductor light-emitting elements still have many deficiencies in actual implementation, it is still one of the problems to be solved urgently in this field to develop a novel nitride semiconductor structure and semiconductor light-emitting element.
