But compare with GaN base blue-ray LED, at present the luminous power of UV-LED and efficient also far can not make us satisfied.Wherein one of reason is the epitaxial growth difficulty of the material of high-quality high Al contents AlGaN, and generally speaking, the Al component is higher, and crystal mass is lower, and dislocation density is generally 10 9/ cm -2-10 10/ cm -2And even higher.At present, metal phasmon technology successfully has been used for improving the luminous efficiency of visible LED.Phasmon metal commonly used comprises Ag, Au etc., the phasmon energy of these metals all is positioned at the visible region, can't be used for improving the luminous efficiency of ultraviolet band LED, therefore, it has been generally acknowledged that the phasmon technology is not is a kind of particularly effective ways of deep ultraviolet wave band LED luminous efficiency of ultraviolet band that effectively can improve.Yet, recently, list of references 1 (Gao N, Huang K, Li J, Li S, Yang X, v.2:816) Kang J.Surface-plasmon-enhanced deep-UV light emitting diodes based on AlG aN multi-quantum wells Sci.Rep.2012 has reported that employing Al metallic film can improve the luminous efficiency of UV-LED, from experimentally having confirmed to adopt the metal material with high body phasmon, can effectively improve the luminous efficiency of UV-LED.Fig. 1 is the device architecture 100 of the UV-LED of prior art, and it comprises Sapphire Substrate 101, AlN resilient coating 102, N-type AlGaN film 103, AlGaN quantum well 104, P type AlGaN film 105, P type GaN film 106, Al film 107, top electrode 108 and hearth electrode 109.The inventor thinks, due to the thickness thicker (100nm) of P type GaN, much larger than the coupling distance of metal and quantum well, thus the author with the raising of luminous intensity owing to the raising of metal phasmon to the device external quantum efficiency.The photon of launching from the active area 104 of device can be transmitted into the device outside from three directions, and the first, see through successively N-type AlGaNl03, AlN resilient coating 102 and Sapphire Substrate 101, penetrate from the device bottom.The second, GaNl06 penetrates from top device by the P type.The 3rd, penetrate from the side of device.Improved by the phasmon technology in document and penetrated the light extraction efficiency of part light by P type GaNl06 from top device.Wherein, first is luminous is the luminous chief component of UV-LED, and second portion luminous be the luminous less important part of UV-LED.This is because the ultraviolet light that P type GaN film 106 can be launched AlGaN quantum well 104 has strong absorption.In list of references 1, adopt the phasmon technology to improve the light extraction efficiency of second portion luminous (namely seeing through the ultraviolet ray of P type GaN).
Because flip-chip bonded structure has good current distribution characteristic and good heat dissipation characteristics, become the device architecture of a kind of main flow of UV-LED device.In the present invention, we will propose a series of UV-LED device architecture based on flip-chip bonded structure, adopt the phasmon technology to improve the light extraction efficiency of prevailing first luminous (namely seeing through successively N-type AlGaNl03, AlN resilient coating 102 and Sapphire Substrate 101, from device bottom ejaculation).We also will propose the UV-LED device architecture in addition, adopt the phasmon technology to improve the internal quantum efficiency of AlGaN quantum well 103.
