The State Intellectual Property Office (SIPO) of China reveals that Jiangxi SMTC Semiconductor Co., Ltd. has filed a patent application for a technology titled “Low Voltage Micro-LED Epitaxial Wafer and Its Manufacturing Method, Micro-LED,” with publication number CN119069598A. The patent application was filed in November 2024.
This invention discloses a low voltage Micro-LED epitaxial wafer and its manufacturing method, which pertains to the field of semiconductor optoelectronic devices. The low voltage Micro-LED epitaxial wafer consists of a series of layers, including a substrate, buffer layer, undoped GaN layer, N-type GaN layer, multi-quantum well layer, electron blocking layer, P-type GaN layer, and P-type contact layer. Notably, the P-type contact layer includes several stacked layers, including a porous AlInN layer, a 2D P-type BGaN layer, AlN roughening layer, P-type BInGaN nanocluster layer, and P-type AlInGaN roughening layer. The porous AlInN layer is produced by etching the AlInN layer with H2 etching, while the P-type AlInGaN roughening layer is created by N2 roughening of the P-type AlInGaN layer.
By implementing this invention, the operating voltage can be reduced, while the light extraction efficiency is enhanced, ultimately improving the luminescence efficiency.
