Abstract

A method for preparing a single crystal nitride Micro-LED array based on a non-single crystal substrate. A two-dimensional material mask layer is prepared to obtain a dislocation filter layer having a dislocation density less than 1×109cm-2, and to further obtain a single crystal nitride thin film having a dislocation density less than 1×108cm-2, so that an ultra-high quality single crystal nitride functional structure can be implemented on a non-single crystal substrate having large lattice mismatch and large coefficient of thermal expansion mismatch. In addition to being used for preparing a Micro-LED device, the method can further be used for preparing a radio frequency device, a power device, a light emitting device, a detection device, and the like, and has process universality. The interface bonding between an epitaxial structure and the non-single crystal substrate is destroyed by using a laser, so that nondestructive separation of the epitaxial structure and repeated utilization of the non-single crystal substrate can be realized, and the method is energy-saving, environment-friendly, and simple, and is suitable for batch production.

Description

一种基于非单晶衬底的单晶氮化物Micro-LED阵列的制备方法A preparation method for single crystal nitride Micro-LED array based on non-single crystal substrate 技术领域Technical field
本发明涉及半导体发光器件的制备技术,具体涉及一种基于非单晶衬底的单晶氮化物Micro-LED阵列的制备方法。The present invention relates to the preparation technology of semiconductor light-emitting devices, and in particular to a preparation method of a single crystal nitride Micro-LED array based on a non-single crystal substrate.
背景技术Background technique
由于同质衬底匮乏,氮化物半导体通常异质外延于晶格对称性匹配的单晶衬底上。例如,制备氮化物发光器件通常选择高透光度的单晶蓝宝石衬底,制备电子器件通常选择单晶硅或单晶碳化硅衬底。但是,上述单晶衬底尚不能充分满足发光器件的出光效率、透明度、散热能力等方面的要求,亟需探索非单晶衬底上的单晶氮化物制备技术,提高器件热管理能力与综合性能、降低成本并扩展器件应用领域。Due to the lack of homogeneous substrates, nitride semiconductors are usually heteroepitaxially grown on single crystal substrates with matching lattice symmetry. For example, high-transmittance single-crystal sapphire substrates are usually selected to prepare nitride light-emitting devices, and single-crystal silicon or single-crystal silicon carbide substrates are usually selected to prepare electronic devices. However, the above-mentioned single crystal substrates cannot fully meet the requirements of light emitting efficiency, transparency, heat dissipation and other aspects of light-emitting devices. There is an urgent need to explore single crystal nitride preparation technology on non-single crystal substrates to improve device thermal management capabilities and comprehensive performance, reduce costs and expand device application areas.
在石英等非单晶衬底上采用单晶二维材料辅助外延的方法可以实现单晶氮化物薄膜,但是存在以下几方面的问题:(1)外延薄膜厚度超过1微米时,外延薄膜与二维材料的界面相互作用将强于二维材料与非单晶衬底的界面相互作用,导致外延薄膜在生长或降温时因部分界面分离而破碎;(2)当外延薄膜厚度小于1微米时,外延薄膜的位错密度通常高于3×10 10cm -2,对应的X射线衍射(0002)晶面的摇摆曲线半宽大于1度,导致其上制备的发光器件电光转换效率低、电子器件漏电严重,不能满足柔性LED、紫外LED、射频功率器件等领域的应用要求,特别是不能满足材料质量要求极高的微型发光二极管(Micro-LED)领域的研发要求。 Single crystal nitride films can be realized by using single crystal two-dimensional material-assisted epitaxy on non-single crystal substrates such as quartz. However, there are several problems: (1) When the thickness of the epitaxial film exceeds 1 micron, the epitaxial film will The interface interaction of 2D materials will be stronger than the interface interaction between 2D materials and non-single crystal substrates, causing the epitaxial film to be broken due to partial interface separation during growth or cooling; (2) When the thickness of the epitaxial film is less than 1 micron, The dislocation density of epitaxial films is usually higher than 3×10 10 cm -2 , and the half-width of the rocking curve of the corresponding X-ray diffraction (0002) crystal plane is greater than 1 degree, resulting in low electro-optical conversion efficiency of light-emitting devices prepared on it, and electronic devices The current leakage is serious and cannot meet the application requirements in fields such as flexible LED, ultraviolet LED, and radio frequency power devices, especially the research and development requirements in the field of micro-light-emitting diodes (Micro-LED) where material quality requirements are extremely high.
