Description

201214753 六、發明說明: 【發明所屬之技術領域】 本發明係關於一種發光二極體、使用它之發光二極體 燈及照明裝置,該發光二極體係具有850 nm以上、尤其 900 nm以上之發光波峰波長。 本發明申請案係基於在2010年1月25日向日本國所 提出申請的特願2010-013530號、在2010年8月18日向 日本國所提出申請的特願2 0 1 0- 1 8 3 20 5號而主張優先權, 於此援用其內容。 【先前技術】 紅外發光二極體已被廣泛利用於紅外線通訊、紅外線 遙控裝置、各種感測器用光源、夜間照明等。 針對如此之波峰波長附近,習知係利用磊晶法而使含 有AlGaAs活性層的化合物半導體層成長於GaAs基板的發 光二極體(例如專利文獻1至3 );去除作爲成長基板所 用之GaAs基板’僅利用對發光波長爲透明的成長層而構成 其化合物半導體層之所謂的基板去除型發光二極體爲現狀 最高輸出的紅外發光二極體(例如專利文獻4 )。 另一方面,於機器間之訊息發送或接收所用之紅外線 通訊之情形下,例如使用8 5 0至9 0 0 n m之紅外線,紅外線 遙控操作通訊之情形下,受光部之感度爲高的波長帶,例 如使用8 8 0至9 4 0 nm之紅外光。作爲能夠使用於兼具紅外 線通訊與紅外線遙控操作通訊之兩機能的行動電話等之終 201214753 端機用的紅外線通訊與紅外線遙控操作通訊兩者之紅外發 光二極體,習知係使用發光波峰波長爲880至890‘nm之實 質不純物中含有Ge之AlGaAs活性層者(專利文獻4 )。 另外’作爲可具有900 nm以上之發光波峰波長的紅外 發光二極體’習知係使用In G a As活性層者(專利文獻5 至7 )。 [先前技術文獻] [專利文獻] 專利文獻1:日本特開平6-21507號公報 專利文獻2:日本特開2001-274454號公報 專利文獻3 :日本特開平7 - 3 8 1 4 8號公報 專利文獻4:日本特開2006-190792號公報 專利文獻5:日本特開2002-26377號公報 專利·文獻6:日本特開2002-111〇48號公報 專利文獻7:日本特開2002-344013號公報 【發明內容】 〔發明所欲解決之問題〕 然而,於專利申請人所知之範圍內,針對8 5 〇 nm以 上、尤其900 nm以上之紅外發光二極體,並無爲了使輸出 提尚’將晶晶晶圓貼附於機能性基板(接合)且去除用於 成長的GaAs基板之所謂的接合型。 另外,使用實際不純物中含有Ge之AlGaAs活性層之 情形,難以將發光波峰波長作成9 0 0 n m以上(專利文獻4 之第3圖)。 201214753 另外,針對可具有900 nm以上之發光波峰波長之使用 InGaAs活性層的紅外發光二極體,從進一步地提高性能、 節能、成本面之觀點,期望發光效率更高者之開發。 本發明係有鑒於上述情形所完成者,目的在於提供一 種高輸出/高效率地發射850 nm以上、尤其900 nm以上之 發光波峰波長的紅外光之紅外發光二極體,及使用它而成 之發光二極體燈及照明裝置。 〔解決問題之手段〕 本發明人係用以解決上述技術問題,不斷鑽硏之結 果,藉由將作成由InGaAs所構成的井層、作成由AlGalnP 所構成的障壁層之多重量子井構造作爲活性層,使由 AlGalnP所構成的導光層介於中間而夾住活性層,將包覆 層作成4元混晶的AlGalnP.,同時也使包含活性層、導光 層及包覆層之化合物半導體層磊晶成長於成長基板後,再 次將化合物半導體層貼附於透明基板(接合),作成去除 其成長基板之構造,而使高輸出/高效率地發射850 urn以 上、尤其900 nrn以上之發光波峰波長的紅外光的紅外發光 二極體得以完成。 首先,本發明人等係具有於紅外線通訊等所用之8 5 0 nm以上、尤其900 nm.以上之發光波峰波長的方式來採用 由InGaAs所構成的井層,作成用以提高單色性及輸出的多 重量子井構造之活性層。 另外,採用一種4元混晶之AlGalnP,其係於夾住此3 元混晶之井層的障壁層、及該井層、夾住包含障壁層之多 ⑤ 201214753 重量子井構造之導光層及包覆層中,能帶間隙大且對發光 波長爲透明,且因爲不含容易產生缺陷之As而結晶性佳。 以及,與作爲成長基板使用之GsAs作一比較,以 In Ga As層作爲井層之多重量子井構造係成爲晶格常數較 大且歪斜量子井構造。於如此之歪斜量子井構造中,對 InG a As之組成及厚度之輸出或單色性的影響也大,適切之 組成、厚度及成對數之選擇變得重要。因此,發現藉由將 與InGaAs井層相反的歪斜追加於障壁層之AlGalnP,而以 量子井構造整體來緩和因InGaAs之成對數增加所造成的 晶格不整,改善在高電流區域之發光輸出特性。 另外,如上所述,習知係於使用InGaAs系活性層之紅 外發光二極體中,並非將含此活性層之化合物半導體層貼 附於透明基板(接合)型,而是原狀態下使用使化合物半 導體層成長的GaAs基板。但是,GaAs基板係爲了提高傳 導性而進f了局慘雜,無法避免因載子(carrier)所造成的光之 吸收。因此’採用能夠迴避因載子所造成的光之吸收且貼 附於能夠期待高輸出/高效率之透明基板(接合)型。 尤其’接合型之情形,也有來自機能性基板之應力的 影響’含有最適化之該歪斜量子井的元件構造設計爲重要。 本發明人係基於如此之見解而進一步進行硏究的結 果’於是完成顯示於下列結構的本發明。 本發明係提供以下之結構: (1) 一種發光二極體,其特徵爲具備:發光部,其係具有: 201214753 交替積層由組成式(InxlGai-xl) As(OSXlSl)所構成的 井層與由組成式(AlX2Gai-x2) YilnmPC 0SX2S1、〇&lt;

The application of the present invention is based on the Japanese Patent Application No. 2010-013530 filed on January 25, 2010, and the Japanese Patent Application No. 2010-013530, filed on August 18, 2010. Priority is claimed on the 5th, and its content is used here. [Prior Art] Infrared light-emitting diodes have been widely used in infrared communication, infrared remote control devices, various sensor light sources, and night illumination. In the vicinity of such a peak wavelength, a compound semiconductor layer containing an AlGaAs active layer is grown on a light-emitting diode of a GaAs substrate by an epitaxial method (for example, Patent Documents 1 to 3); and a GaAs substrate used as a growth substrate is removed. A so-called substrate-removing type light-emitting diode which constitutes a compound semiconductor layer which is a growth layer which is transparent to the light-emitting wavelength is an infrared light-emitting diode which is the highest output at present (for example, Patent Document 4). On the other hand, in the case of infrared communication used for transmitting or receiving messages between machines, for example, using infrared rays of 850 to 990 nm, in the case of infrared remote control operation, the wavelength band of the light receiving portion is highly sensitive. For example, infrared light of 880 to 94 nm is used. As an infrared light-emitting diode that can be used in both the infrared communication and the infrared remote control operation communication of the 201214753 terminal that can be used for both the infrared communication and the infrared remote control operation communication, it is known to use the illuminating peak wavelength. It is an AlGaAs active layer containing Ge in a substantial impurity of 880 to 890 'nm (Patent Document 4). Further, as an infrared light-emitting diode which can have an emission peak wavelength of 900 nm or more, an In G a As active layer is conventionally used (Patent Documents 5 to 7). [PRIOR ART DOCUMENT] Patent Document 1: Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. Hei. No. Hei. No. Hei. No. Hei. No. 2001-274454. Patent Document 3: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. Hei 7- 3 8 1 4 8 Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. Publication No. JP-A-2002-344013, No. JP-A-2002-344013, No. JP-A-2002-344013 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, within the scope of the patent applicant, infrared light-emitting diodes of 8 5 〇 nm or more, especially 900 nm or more, are not provided for the output. A so-called bonding type in which a crystal wafer is attached to a functional substrate (joined) and a GaAs substrate for growth is removed. Further, in the case where an AlGaAs active layer containing Ge in an actual impurity is used, it is difficult to set the emission peak wavelength to 90 nm or more (Fig. 3 of Fig. 4). In addition, in the case of an infrared light-emitting diode using an InGaAs active layer having an emission peak wavelength of 900 nm or more, development of a higher luminous efficiency is desired from the viewpoint of further improving performance, energy saving, and cost. The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide an infrared light-emitting diode of high-output/high-efficiency emission of infrared light having an emission peak wavelength of 850 nm or more, particularly 900 nm or more, and using the same. Light-emitting diode lamp and lighting device. [Means for Solving the Problem] The present inventors have solved the above-mentioned technical problems as a result of continuous drilling, by making a multiple quantum well structure in which a well layer made of InGaAs is formed and a barrier layer composed of AlGalnP is formed. The layer is such that the light guiding layer composed of AlGalnP is interposed between the active layer, and the cladding layer is made into a 4-ary mixed crystal AlGalnP., and the compound semiconductor including the active layer, the light guiding layer and the cladding layer is also formed. After the layer epitaxial growth is performed on the growth substrate, the compound semiconductor layer is attached to the transparent substrate (joined) again, and the structure in which the growth substrate is removed is removed, and the light emission of 850 urn or more, particularly 900 nrn or more is emitted with high output/high efficiency. The infrared light emitting diode of the peak wavelength of infrared light is completed. First, the present inventors have used a well layer made of InGaAs to form a light-emitting peak wavelength of 850 nm or more, particularly 900 nm. or more, which is used for infrared communication or the like, to improve monochromaticity and output. The active layer of the multiple quantum well structure. In addition, a 4-component mixed crystal AlGalnP is used, which is attached to the barrier layer of the well layer sandwiching the ternary mixed crystal, and the well layer, and the light guiding layer of the 2012-14753 weight sub well structure. In the coating layer, the band gap is large and transparent to the emission wavelength, and the crystallinity is good because it does not contain As which is liable to cause defects. As compared with the GsAs used as a growth substrate, the multiple quantum well structure with the In Ga As layer as the well layer has a large lattice constant and a skewed quantum well structure. In such a skewed quantum well structure, the influence on the composition and thickness of the composition and thickness of InG a As is also large, and the selection of the composition, thickness and number of pairs is important. Therefore, it has been found that by adding the skew opposite to the InGaAs well layer to the AlGalnP of the barrier layer, the quantum well structure is used as a whole to alleviate the lattice irregularity caused by the logarithmic increase of InGaAs, and the light-emitting output characteristics in the high current region are improved. . Further, as described above, in the infrared light-emitting diode using the InGaAs-based active layer, the compound semiconductor layer containing the active layer is not attached to the transparent substrate (bonding) type, but is used in the original state. A GaAs substrate in which a compound semiconductor layer is grown. However, the GaAs substrate is inconvenient in order to improve the conductivity, and absorption of light by a carrier cannot be avoided. Therefore, it is possible to avoid the absorption of light by the carrier and attach it to a transparent substrate (joining) type capable of expecting high output/high efficiency. In particular, in the case of the junction type, the influence of the stress from the functional substrate is also important in that the element structure design of the skewed quantum well is optimized. The present inventors have further studied the results based on such findings. Thus, the present invention shown in the following structures was completed.

In the present invention, the term "functional substrate" refers to a substrate in which a compound semiconductor layer is grown on a growth substrate, the growth substrate is removed, and the current diffusion layer is interposed and bonded to the compound semiconductor layer to support the compound semiconductor layer. However, in the case where a predetermined layer is formed in the current diffusion layer and a predetermined substrate is bonded to a predetermined layer, a predetermined layer is referred to as a "functional substrate". [Effects of the Invention] According to the above configuration, the following effects are obtained. It is possible to emit infrared light having an emission peak wavelength of 85 rpm or more, particularly 900 nm or more, with high output/high efficiency. Because the active layer has an alternating layer of a well layer composed of a composition formula (InxlGai-X1 ) As( 0SXK1) and a composition formula (Alx2Ga _x2) γιΙηι-γιΡ (0&lt;X2&lt;1 ' 0&lt;Yld) The structure of the multiple quantum well structure of the barrier layer has superior monochromaticity. 201214753 By designing the functional substrate to be transparent to the light-emitting wavelength, it is possible to display high output/high efficiency without absorbing light emitted from the light-emitting portion. Since the barrier layer, the light guiding layer, and the cladding layer are composed of a composition formula (AlxGai-χ) YIni -YP ( 0&lt; Χ 1 &lt; 1 ' 0 &lt; Y &lt; 1 ), the As is not easily formed. It contributes to high crystallinity and high output. Since the barrier layer, the light guiding layer, and the cladding layer are composed of a composition formula (AlxGai-x) γ In丨-YP (0SX1S1, 0 &lt; YS1 ), the barrier layer, the light guiding layer, and the cladding layer For comparison of an infrared light-emitting diode composed of a ternary mixed crystal, the A 1 concentration is lower and the heat resistance is further improved. The active layer is composed of a well layer composed of a composition formula (InxiGai-χ!) As (0SX1S1) and a composition formula (Alx2Gai-x2) υιΙπι-υ1Ρ (0^Χ2^1, 00&1; Y1S1). The structure of the laminated structure of the barrier layer is suitable for mass production by the MOCVD method. In the case of using a Ga As substrate which is a growth substrate of a compound semiconductor layer, the composition of the barrier layer composed of the composition formula (AlxzGai-xz) YIIni-Y1P (0SX2S1, 0 &lt; Y1S1) is taken as Χ2 and Υ1, respectively. The structure of 0^乂2&lt;0.2, 0.5&lt;丫1€0.7, and the skew of the well layer of the 〇3-8 substrate is alleviated, and the decrease in crystallinity can be suppressed. By forming the functional substrate into a structure composed of GaP, SiC, tantalum or niobium, the stress can be reduced by the fact that the thermal expansion coefficient of the light-emitting portion is close. In addition, since it is a material that is hard to corrode, moisture resistance will increase. By adopting a structure in which any of the functional substrate and the current diffusion layer is made of GaP, the bonding can be facilitated and the bonding strength can be increased. 201214753 By forming the current diffusion layer into a structure composed of GalnP, it is possible to integrate the crystal lattice with the InG a As well layer to improve crystallinity. The light-emitting diode lamp of the present invention can have an emission peak wavelength of 850 nm or more, particularly 900 nm or more, and has high monochromaticity, high output/high efficiency, and excellent moisture resistance. A polar body, a light source suitable for a wide range of applications such as sensor use. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, a light-emitting diode according to an embodiment of the present invention and a light-emitting diode lamp using the same will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Incidentally, the drawings used in the following description are for easily understanding the features and facilitating the portions having the features to be enlarged, and the dimensional ratios and the like of the respective constituent elements are not limited to the same as the actual ones. &lt;Light Emitting Diode Lamp&gt; Figs. 1 and 2 are views for explaining a pattern of a light-emitting diode lamp using a light-emitting diode according to an embodiment of the present invention: Fig. 1 is a plan view; The figure is a cross-sectional view taken along line A-A' shown in Fig. 1. As shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, in the light-emitting diode lamp 41 of the light-emitting diode 1 of the present embodiment, one or more light-emitting diodes 1 are mounted on the surface of the mounting substrate 42. More specifically, the n electrode terminal 43 and the p electrode terminal 44 are provided on the surface of the mounting substrate 42. Further, the n-type ohmic electrode 4 of the first electrode of the light-emitting diode 1 and the n-electrode terminal 43 of the mounting substrate 42 are connected (wire-bonded) using the gold wire 45. On the other hand, the p-type ohmic electrode 5 of the second electrode of the light-emitting diodes 201214753 and the p-electrode terminal 44 of the mounting substrate 42 are connected by using the gold wire 46, and as shown in Fig. 2, The third electrode 6' is provided on the surface opposite to the surface on which the n-type and the erbium-type ohmic electrodes 4, 5 of the polar body 1 are disposed, whereby the light-emitting diode 1 is connected to the n-electrode terminal 43 by the third electrode 6 It is fixed to the mounting substrate 42. Here, the n-type ohmic electrode 4 and the third electrode 6 are electrically connected so as to be equipotential or approximately equipotential by the n-electrode terminal 43. With the third electrode, the overcurrent does not flow into the active layer for the excessive reverse voltage, and the current flows between the third electrode and the p-type electrode, thereby preventing damage of the active layer. High output can also be performed on the interface between the third electrode and the substrate. In addition, by adding a eutectic metal, solder, or the like to the surface side of the third electrode, a simpler assembly technique such as eutectic solid crystal can be utilized. Further, the surface of the light-emitting diode 1 on which the mounting substrate 42 is mounted is sealed by a general sealing resin 47 such as silicone resin or epoxy resin. &lt;Light Emitting Diode (Embodiment 1)&gt; Figs. 3 and 4 are views for explaining a pattern of a light-emitting diode according to the first embodiment of the present invention: Fig. 3 is a plan view; 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line Β-Β' shown in Fig. 3. In addition, Fig. 5 is a cross-sectional view showing a laminated structure of a well layer and a barrier layer. The light-emitting diode of the first embodiment is characterized in that it includes a light-emitting portion 7 having an alternate layer of a well layer 17 composed of a composition formula (InxlGai-xl) As (OSX1S1) and a composition formula (Alx2Gai). -x2) YiIni-γιΡ (0SX2S1, 0 &lt; YK1) The quantum well structure of the barrier layer 18 is constructed as -14 - 5 201214753 Active layer U, sandwiching the active layer 11 by the composition formula (AlX3Gai-X3) nin,- Y2P (0SX3S1, 0 &lt; Y2S1), the first light guiding layer 10 and the second light guiding layer 12, and the first light guiding layer 10 and the second light guiding layer 12 interposed therebetween to sandwich the active layer 11 The first cladding layer 9 and the second cladding layer 13; the current diffusion layer 8 is formed on the light-emitting portion 7, and the functional substrate 3 is bonded to the current diffusion layer 8; and the first cladding layer 9 and the second cladding layer 13 are composed of a composition formula (AlX4Gab X4) Y3 lni-Y3P (0SX4S1, 0 &lt; Y3 幺1). In addition, the light-emitting diode 1 has a configuration in which an n-type ohmic electrode (first electrode) 4 and a p-type ohmic electrode (second electrode) 5 provided on the main light extraction surface are provided. In addition, the main light extraction surface in the present embodiment is attached to the compound half-conductor layer 2, and the surface opposite to the surface of the functional substrate 3 is attached. As shown in Fig. 4, the compound semiconductor layer (also referred to as an epitaxial growth layer) 2 has a structure in which the light-emitting portion 7 and the current diffusion layer 8 are sequentially laminated. In the structure of the compound semiconductor layer 2, a conventional functional layer can be added as appropriate. For example, a contact layer for reducing the contact resistance of an ohmic electrode and a current diffusion layer for planarly diffusing the element drive current to the general light-emitting portion can be provided; instead, the element drive current is limited. A conventional layer structure such as a current blocking layer or a current constriction layer in a region. Further, the compound semiconductor layer 2 is preferably formed by epitaxial growth and formed on a GaAs substrate. As shown in Fig. 4, the light-emitting portion 7 is formed on the current diffusion layer 8 at least in accordance with the 201214753 P-type lower cladding layer (first cladding layer) 9, the lower light guiding layer 10, the active layer 11, and the upper portion. The optical layer 12 and the n-type upper cladding layer (second cladding layer) 13 are formed. That is, the light-emitting portion 7 is a carrier that causes radiation recombination and is used to "cut" the light into the active layer 11. Preferably, the light-emitting portion 7 is provided under the active layer 11 for obtaining high-intensity light. The lower cladding layer 9, the lower light guiding layer 10, the upper light guiding layer 12, and the upper cladding layer 13 disposed on the side and the upper side are so-called double heterogeneous (English abbreviated as DH). As shown in Fig. 5, the active layer 11 is used to control the emission wavelength of the light-emitting diode (LED) to constitute a quantum well structure. That is, the active layer 11 is a multilayer structure (laminate structure) having the well layer 17 and the barrier layer 18 having the barrier layer 18 at both ends. The layer thickness of the active layer 11 is preferably in the range of 50 to 1000 nm. Further, the conductivity type of the active layer 1 1 is not particularly limited, and any of undoped, P-type, and η-type can also be selected. In order to improve the luminous efficiency, it is desirable to form an undoped or a carrier concentration of less than 3 X 1 17 17 cm -3 which is excellent in crystallinity. Fig. 6 shows that the In composition (XI) of the well layer 17 is fixed at 0.1, and the layer is shown to be related to the wavelength of the luminescence peak. The data shown in Figure 6 is shown in Table 1. If the well layer is thickened to 3 nm, 5 nm, and 7 nm, the wavelength is monotonically variable to 820 nm, 870 nm, and 920 nm. Table 1

Fig. 7 is a diagram showing the composition of the In composition (XI) and the layer thickness of the well layer 17 in which the illuminating peak wavelength of the well layer 17 is set to a predetermined wavelength. Specifically, the composition of the In composition (XI) and the layer thickness of the well layer 17 having the emission peak wavelengths of 920 nm and 960 nm, respectively, is shown. The composition of In composition (XI) and layer thickness at other wavelengths of 820 nm, 870 nm, 985 nm, and 99 5 nm is further shown in Fig. 7. The data shown in Fig. 7 is shown in Table 2. Table 2 8 2 0 nm 8 7 0 nm 9 2 0 nm 9 6 0 nm 98 5 nm 99 5 nm In composition layer thickness (nm) layer thickness (nm) layer thickness (nm) layer thickness (nm) layer thickness (nm Layer thickness (nm) 0.05 8 0.1 3 5 7 8 0.2 5 6 0.25 4 5 0.3 3 5 0.35 5 When the illuminating peak wavelength is 920 urn, if the In composition (·Χ1 ) is decreased from 0.3 to 0.05, it corresponds to this. The layer thickness is monotonously thickened from 3 nm to 8 nm, and if it is a peer, it can be easily found to be a combination of the illuminating peak wavelength of 920 nm. In addition, when the In composition (XI) is 0.1, when the layer thickness is increased to 3 nm, 5 nm, 7 nm, and 8 nm, the wavelength of the luminescence peak becomes 820 nm, 870 nm, and 9 2 0 nm ' 9 6 0 nm. In addition, when the composition of In (XI) is 0.2, when the layer thickness is increased to 5 nm or 6 nm, the wavelength of the luminescence peak becomes 920 nm and 960 nm, and when the composition of In (XI) is 0.25. When the thickness of the layer is increased to 4 nm or 5 nm, the wavelength of the illuminating peak 201214753 becomes 920 nm and 960 nm. In addition, when the composition of In (XI) is 〇·3, the thickness of the layer becomes thicker. When it is 3 nm and 5 nm, the wavelength of the luminescence peak becomes 920 nm and 985 nm. In addition, when the layer thickness is 5 nm, if the In composition (XI) is increased to 0.1, 0.2, 0.25, and 0.3, the wavelength of the luminescence peak becomes 870 nm, 920 nm, 960 nm, and 985 nm; When (XI) is increased to 0.35, the wavelength of the luminescence peak becomes 995 nm. In Fig. 7, when the combination of the In composition (XI) and the layer thickness of the 720 nm and 960 nm wavelengths is obtained, the display is approximately linear. Further, it is presumed that a line which is a combination of the In. composition (XI) and the layer thickness which is a predetermined emission peak wavelength in a wavelength band of about 850 nm or more and up to about 1 000 nm is also approximately linear. Further, it is presumed that the shorter the wavelength of the luminescence peak connected to the combination is located at the lower left, and the longer the longer, the higher the upper right. Based on the above regularity, the In composition (XI) and the layer thickness having a desired luminescence peak wavelength of 850 nm or more and 1000 nm or less can be easily found. Fig. 8 shows the correlation between the In composition (XI) in which the layer thickness of the well layer 17 is fixed at 5 nm and the luminescence peak wavelength and its luminescence output. The data shown in Fig. 8 is shown in Table 3. When the composition of In (XI) is increased to 0.12, 0.2, 0.25, and 0.3' 0.35, the wavelength of the luminescence peak becomes 870 nm, 920 nm, 960 nm, 985 nm, and 99 5 nm. More specifically, as the In composition (XI) increases from 0.12 to 0.3, the luminescence peak wavelength increases approximately monotonically from 870 nm to 985 5 201214753 nm. However, even if the In composition (XI) is increased from 0.3 to 0.35, the length is changed from 9 8 5 n m to 9 9 5 nm, but the rate of change to the long wavelength is small. In addition, when the illuminating peak wavelength is 870 nm (Xl=0.12), 920 nm (Χ1=0·2), and 960 nm (Xl=0.25), the illuminating output is up to 6.5 mW; even 9 8 5 nm (XI In the case of =0.3), it is practically up to 5 mW; but in the case of 995 nm (Xl = 0.35), it is as low as 2 mW.

The above XI can be adjusted in such a manner as to achieve the desired wavelength of light emission. The case where the luminescence peak wavelength is made to be 900 nm or more is preferably 0SX1S0.3; and when it is lower than 900 nm, it is preferably 0SXK0.1. The layer thickness of the well layer 17 is suitably in the range of 3 to 20 nm. More preferably in the range of 3 to 10 nm. The barrier layer 18 has a composition of (Alx2Gai - χ2) γιΙηι - γιΡ ( 0SX2S1 , 〇 &lt; γ 1 ^ 1 ). The above Χ2 is preferably in a range in which the band gap is made larger than the well layer i 7 and more preferably 〇 to 0.2. Further, γι is used to alleviate the skew due to lattice unconformity of the well layer 17, preferably from 〇5 to 0.7, more preferably from 0.52 to 0.60. -19- 201214753 The layer thickness of the barrier layer 18 is preferably equal to or thicker than the layer thickness of the well layer 17, whereby the luminous efficiency of the well layer 17 can be improved. In Fig. 9, the layer of the well layer 17 is Thick layered to 5 nm, In composition (XI) = 0.2 and the composition of the barrier layer X2 = 0, Yl = 〇.55 (ie, (Alo^Gao.9) G.55InQ.45P), showing the formation and The logarithm of the barrier layer is related to the luminous output. The data shown in Fig. 9 is shown in Table 4. A case where a GaAs substrate is used as a growth substrate. ' and 'In order to show the effect of the barrier layer, the comparative example shows the use of Alo.3Gao.7As for the barrier layer." The case of using the AlQ.3GaQ.7As for the barrier layer, in the logarithm of i to 10 Up to now, the illuminating output has a enthalpy of up to 6.5 mW or more, but is reduced to 5 mW with respect to the case of 20 pairs; the case of the present invention maintains a high enthalpy of about 6.5 mW or more until the pair of 20 pairs. In this way, even if the number of pairs is increased, the high light output can be maintained, which is caused by the composition Χ2 = 0·1, Υ1 = 0.55 (that is, (Al〇.|Ga〇.9) 〇.55In〇. The barrier layer of 45P) mitigates the skew of the GaAs growth substrate by the well layer composed of the composition formula (InjuGa, - χ, ) As (0SX1S1) (that is, the barrier layer is given a lattice skew opposite to the well layer) to suppress the crystallinity. Reduced. The effect of mitigating skew is further explained using Fig. 10.

The data shown in Fig. 10 is shown in Table 5. A case where a GaAs substrate is used as a growth substrate. In order to show the effect of the barrier layer, the barrier layer system as a comparative example is the same as the present invention, and the combination shows that the Ga As layer of the same material as the growth substrate (that is, the case where there is no skew with respect to the growth substrate) is used for the well layer. Time. In the case of the present invention, the maximum luminous output is 7 mW, and the Y1 of the barrier layer shows approximately 7 mW in the range of 0.52 to 0.60. In view of this, it is known that the case where the GaAs layer is used for the well layer is a maximum of 6.5 mW of the light-emitting output, and the range indicating the high output is also narrower than the case of the present invention. This result is in the present invention, since the reverse skew of the barrier layer will moderate the skew of the well layer and suppress the decrease in crystallinity, and the composition range of the barrier layer which is high in light emission output and exhibits high output is also wide, in the comparative example, When the combination of the well-free layer and the barrier layer having the skew is obtained, it is understood that the crystallinity is lowered and the light-emitting output characteristics are lowered.

The data system sets the layer thickness of the well layer 17 to 5 nm, the In composition (Χ1)=0·2, and the composition of the barrier layer Χ2 = 0.1' Yl=0.55 (ie, (Al〇.iGa〇.9) o.55ln〇 .45P), showing the case where the logarithm is 3 pairs and 5 pairs, and the data shown in Fig. 11 is shown in Table 6. The forward current is up to 30 m ,, and any of the 3 pairs and 5 pairs is approximately proportional to the increase in current, and the illuminating output is increased. However, in the case of 50 mA, 100 mA, the approximate ratio is maintained for 5 pairs, and for the increase of current, the illuminating output is increased; but for 3 pairs, the 50 mA and 100 mA are respectively A comparison of the five cases, the luminous output is reduced by 2 mW, 9 mW. Therefore, for a large current/high output light-emitting diode, it is known that five pairs are suitable for three pairs. The greater the number of pairs, the higher the current/high output, due to the composition Χ2 = 0·1, Υ1 = 0.55 (ie, (AU.iGao.s») o.55lnQ.45P) The well layer skew of the growth layer of the growth substrate by the composition formula (InxiGai-Xl) As (O^XK 1 ) is moderated to suppress the decrease in crystallinity.

And 20 pairs or less. That is, it is preferable to contain 1 to 20 layers in the active layer 11. Here, according to Fig. 9, the well layer 17 is sufficient as the light-emitting efficiency of the active layer 11 as a suitable range; however, according to Fig. 10, the luminous efficiency is improved particularly under high current conditions. 'Special good for multiple layers. Further, since there is a lattice irregularity between the well layer 17 and the barrier layer 18, if a large number of pairs are formed, the luminous efficiency will decrease due to the occurrence of crystal defects. Therefore, it is preferably 2 to 0 or less, more preferably 1 to the following. As shown in Fig. 4, the lower light guiding layer 10 and the upper light guiding layer 12 are disposed on the lower surface and the upper surface of the active layer 1 1 , respectively. Specifically, a lower light guiding layer 10 is provided under the active layer 11, and an upper light guiding layer 12 is provided on the active layer 11. The lower light guiding layer 10 and the upper light guiding layer 12 have a composition of (AlX3Gai-x3) YaliM-wPCOSXSS1, 0 &lt; Y2S1). Preferably, the above X3 is formed so that the barrier layer 18 is equal to the energy gap or becomes larger than the barrier layer 18, and more preferably in the range of 0.2 to 0.5. Further, Y2 is preferably made to be 0.4 to 0.6 〇X3 is selected from a function as a coating layer and is transparent to an emission wavelength, and Y2 is selected from a thick film of the cladding layer and attaches importance to lattice integration with the substrate. Form a range of good crystal growth. The lower light guiding layer 10 and the upper light guiding layer 12 are respectively provided to reduce the transfer of impurities between the lower cladding layer 9 and the upper cladding layer 13 and the active layer 11 of -23-201214753. That is, in the present invention, impurities are doped at a high concentration in the lower cladding layer 9 and the upper cladding layer 13, and the diffusion of the active layer 1 1 of the impurity becomes a cause of deterioration in performance of the light-emitting diode. . In order to effectively reduce the diffusion of the impurities, the layer thickness of the lower light guiding layer 10 and the upper light guiding layer 12 is preferably 10 nm or more, more preferably 20 nm to 100 nm. The conductivity type of the lower light guiding layer 10 and the upper light guiding layer 12 is not particularly limited, and any of undoped, p-type, and n-type can be selected. In order to improve the luminous efficiency, it is desirable to form a carrier having a good crystallinity of undoped or less than 3χ1017 cm -3 . As shown in Fig. 4, the lower cladding layer 9 and the upper cladding layer 13 are respectively disposed on The lower surface of the lower light guiding layer 10 and the upper surface of the upper light guiding layer 12. For the materials of the lower cladding layer 9 and the upper cladding layer 13, a semiconductor material of (AlX4Gai - χ4 ) Y3IIM-Y3P (0SX4S1, 0 &lt; Y3S1) is used, preferably a buffer gap of the buffer layer 15. For a large material, it is more preferable that the gap between the lower light guiding layer 10 and the upper light guiding layer 12 is larger. Preferably, the material has a composition of (Αΐχπα, -^Μ)^Ιη, -^Ρ (0&lt;Χ4&lt;1 &gt; Ο &lt;Υ3&lt;1), Χ4 is 0.3 to 0.7. Further, Υ3 is preferably 0.4 to 0.6. Χ4 is selected from the range of function as a coating layer and transparent to the luminescent wavelength, and is selected from the viewpoint of forming a thick film and integrating it from the crystal lattice of the substrate, and Υ3 is selected from the range in which the crystal growth is formed. The lower cladding layer 9 and the upper cladding layer 13 are configured to have different polarities. Further, the carrier thickness of the lower cladding layer 9 and the upper cladding layer 13 can be adjusted to a suitable range, and it is preferable to optimize the conditions in such a manner that the luminous efficiency of the active layer 11 is improved. Chemical. Further, by controlling the composition of the lower cladding layer 9 and the upper cladding layer 13, the bending of the compound semiconductor layer 2 can be reduced. Specifically, it is desirable that the lower cladding layer 9 be a semiconductor material composed of, for example, Mg-doped p-type (AlxuGa! - X4a) Yalni - YaP (0.3SX4aS0.7, 0.4: SY3aS0.6). Further, the carrier concentration is preferably in the range of 2 χ 1017 to 2 x 10 8 cm -3 , and the layer thickness is preferably in the range of 0.1 to 1 μηη. On the other hand, it is desirable that the upper cladding layer 13 be a semiconductor material composed of, for example, an n-type (A1X4bGa 1 - X4b ) Yblni - YbP (0.3 &lt; X4b &lt; 0.7 '0.4SY3bS0.6) doped with Si. Further, the carrier concentration is preferably in the range of lxlO17 to lxl018cm-3, and the layer thickness is preferably in the range of 0.1 to 1 μm. Further, the polarities of the lower cladding layer 9 and the upper cladding layer 13 can be selected in consideration of the element structure of the compound semiconductor layer 2. Further, above the structural layer of the light-emitting portion 7, a contact layer for reducing the contact resistance of the Ohmic electrode, a current diffusion layer for diffusing the element drive current planarly to the entire light-emitting portion, and the like may be provided. A conventional layer structure such as a current blocking layer or a current confinement layer in a region where the element drive current is limited. As shown in Fig. 4, the current diffusion layer 8 is provided below the light-emitting portion 7. The current diffusion layer 8 can be made of a material transparent to the light-emitting wavelength from the light-emitting portion 7 (active layer 1 1 ) 201214753, such as GaP or GalnP. In the case where GaP is applied to the current diffusion layer 8, by using the functional substrate 3 as a GaP substrate, there is an effect that bonding is easy and high bonding strength can be obtained. Further, in the case where GalnP is applied to the current diffusion layer 8, by changing the ratio of Ga to In', the InGaAs having the same lattice constant as that of the well layer 17 of the laminated current diffusion layer 8 has the ability to crystallize with the well layer 17. The effect of integration. Therefore, it is preferable to select the composition ratio of GalnP so that the lattice constant becomes the same as the composition ratio of InGaAs selected from the desired light-emitting wavelength. Further, the thickness of the current diffusion layer 8 is preferably in the range of 0.5 to 20 μm. When the right is 0.5 μπι or less, the current diffusion is insufficient; if it is 20 μπι or more, the cost is increased because the crystal grows until the thickness thereof. The functional substrate 3 is bonded to the main light extraction surface of the compound semiconductor layer 2 and the surface on the opposite side. That is, as shown in Fig. 4, the functional substrate 3 is bonded to the side of the current diffusion layer 8 constituting the compound semiconductor layer 2. This functional substrate 3 is sufficiently strong for the mechanically supported light-emitting portion 7, and is made of a material having a wide band gap and optically transparent to the light-emitting wavelength from the light-emitting portion 7. The functional substrate 3 is a substrate having a thermal expansion coefficient close to that of the light-emitting portion and having excellent moisture resistance. Further, it is preferably composed of GaP, GalnP, S i C or sapphire having high mechanical strength. Further, the functional substrate 3 5 201214753 is preferably formed to have a thickness of, for example, about 50 μm or more in order to support the light-emitting portion 7 with sufficient mechanical strength. Further, in order to facilitate the mechanical processing of the functional substrate 3 after bonding to the compound semiconductor layer 2, it is preferable to form a thickness of not more than about 300 μm. The functional substrate 3 is preferably composed of an n-type GaP substrate from the viewpoints of transparency, stress, and cost of a thickness of about 50 μm or more and about 300 μm or less. Further, as shown in Fig. 4, the side surface of the functional substrate 3 is on the side close to the compound semiconductor layer 2 and is set to be approximately perpendicular to the vertical plane 3a with respect to the main light extraction surface; on the side away from the compound semiconductor layer 2 and opposite The inclined surface 3b inclined to the inner side is set on the main light extraction surface. Thereby, the light emitted from the active layer 1 1 toward the functional substrate 3 side can be efficiently taken out to the outside. Further, part of the light emitted from the active layer 1 1 toward the functional substrate 3 side is reflected on the vertical surface 3 a and can be taken out on the inclined surface 3 b . On the other hand, the light reflected by the inclined surface 3b can be taken out on the vertical surface 3a. In this manner, by the effect of multiplying the vertical surface 3a and the inclined surface 3b, the light extraction efficiency can be improved. Further, as shown in Fig. 4, in the present embodiment, it is preferable that the angle ? formed by the inclined surface 3b and the surface parallel to the light-emitting surface is in the range of 55 to 80 degrees. By making such a range, it is possible to efficiently take out the light reflected at the bottom of the functional substrate 3 to the outside. Further, it is preferable that the width (thickness direction) of the vertical surface 3a is in the range of 30 μm to 100 μm. By making the width of the vertical surface 3a within the above range, the light reflected at the bottom -27 - 201214753 of the functional substrate 3 can be efficiently returned to the light-emitting surface on the vertical surface 3a, and can be further taken out from the main light. Face it to emit. Therefore, the luminous efficiency of the light-emitting diode 1 can be improved. Further, it is preferable that the inclined surface 3b of the functional substrate 3 is roughened. By roughening the inclined surface 3b, the effect of improving the light extraction efficiency of the inclined surface 3b can be obtained. In other words, by roughening the inclined surface 3b, total reflection on the inclined surface 3b can be suppressed, and the light extraction efficiency can be improved. Further, the functional substrate 3 has a reflectance of 90% or more with respect to the light-emitting wavelength, and has a reflective layer (not shown) disposed opposite to the light-emitting portion. In this configuration, it is possible to extract light efficiently from the main light extraction surface. The reflective layer is composed of, for example, silver (Ag), aluminum (A1), gold (Au) or the like. These materials have a high light reflectance and a light reflectance from the reflective layer 23 of 90% or more. The functional substrate 3 can be a combination of an inexpensive substrate such as ruthenium or iridium which is bonded to the light-emitting portion by a eutectic metal such as Αι ΐ 、, AuGe or AuSn. In particular, the Auln-based bonding temperature is low, the thermal expansion coefficient is different from that of the light-emitting portion, and the most inexpensive bonding of the germanium substrate (germanium layer) is the optimum combination. From the viewpoint of quality stability, it is also desired that the functional substrate 3 is a high-melting-point metal such as Ti, W, or Pt in which the current diffusion layer, the reflective metal, and the eutectic metal are not mutually diffused, or a transparent conductive oxide in which ITO or the like is inserted. . The bonding interface between the compound semiconductor layer 2 and the functional substrate 3 has a case of -28-5 201214753 as a high resistance layer. In other words, there is a case where a high-resistance layer (not shown) is provided between the compound semiconductor layer 2 and the functional substrate 3. This high-resistance layer exhibits a high resistance 较 compared with the functional substrate 3, and has a function of reducing the reverse current from the side of the current diffusion layer 8 of the compound semiconductor layer 2 toward the functional substrate 3 in the case where the high-resistance layer is provided. In addition, the junction structure exhibiting withstand voltage is inadvertently applied to the current diffusion layer 8 side from the side of the functional substrate 3, and the dropout voltage is preferably lower than the reverse voltage of the pn junction type light-emitting portion 7. The way to make it up. The n-type ohmic electrode (first electrode) 4 and the p-type ohmic electrode (second electrode) 5 are ohmic electrodes of a low-resistance film provided on the main light extraction surface of the light-emitting diode 1. Here, the n-type ohmic electrode 4 is provided above the upper light guiding layer 11, and for example, an alloy composed of AuGe or Ni alloy/Au can be used. On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 4, the p-type ohmic electrode 5 can be made of an alloy of AuB e/Au or AuZn/Au on the surface of the current diffusion layer 8 which is exposed. Here, in the light-emitting diode 1 of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the p-type ohmic electrode 5 as the second electrode is formed on the current diffusion layer 8. By constructing such a structure, it is possible to obtain an effect of lowering the operating voltage. Further, by forming the p-type ohmic electrode 5 on the current diffusion layer 8 composed of p-type GaP, in order to obtain a good ohmic contact, the operating voltage can be lowered. Further, in the present embodiment, it is preferable that the polarity of the first electrode is made n-type and the polarity of the second electrode is made of P type. With such a configuration, it is possible to achieve high luminance of the light-emitting diode 1. On the other hand, when the first electrode of -29-201214753 is formed into a P-type, current spreading will be deteriorated, and the luminance is lowered. On the other hand, by forming the first electrode into an n-type, current spreading is improved, and the luminance of the light-emitting diode 1 can be increased. As shown in Fig. 3, in the light-emitting diode 1 of the present embodiment, it is preferable to arrange the n-type ohmic electrode 4 and the p-type ohmic electrode 5 in a diagonal position. Further, it is preferable to form a structure in which the periphery of the p-type ohmic electrode 5 is surrounded by the compound semiconductor layer 2. By constructing such a structure, the effect of lowering the operating voltage can be obtained. Further, by surrounding the p-type ohmic electrode 5 by the n-type ohmic electrode 4, the current easily flows to the periphery, and as a result, the operating voltage is lowered. Further, in the light-emitting diode 1 of the present embodiment, as shown in Fig. 3, it is preferable that the n-type ohmic electrode 4 is formed into a honeycomb or a lattice shape. By constructing such a structure, an effect of improving reliability can be obtained. Further, by forming a lattice shape, a current can be uniformly injected into the active layer 11 as a result of obtaining an effect of improving reliability. Further, in the light-emitting diode 1 of the present embodiment, it is preferable to use a pad-shaped electrode (pad electrode) and a linear electrode (linear electrode) having a width of 10 μm or less. By having such a structure, it is possible to achieve high luminance. Further, by narrowing the width of the linear electrode, the opening area of the light extraction surface can be increased, so that high luminance can be achieved. The third electrode can be further increased in output by being formed on the back surface of the functional substrate and reflected on the transparent substrate to the substrate side. The reflective metal material can be made of a material such as Au, Ag or tantalum. 5 201214753 In addition, by forming the electrode surface side with a eutectic metal or a solder material such as AuSn, the grain bonding step is simplified and it is not necessary to use a slurry. Further, by using a metal to be connected, heat conduction is improved and the heat radiation characteristics of the light-emitting diode are improved. &lt;Manufacturing Method of Light Emitting Diode&gt; Next, a method of manufacturing the light emitting diode 1 of the present embodiment will be described. Fig. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing an epitaxial wafer used in the light-emitting diode 1 of the present embodiment. Further, Fig. 13 is a cross-sectional view showing a bonded wafer of the light-emitting diode 1 of the present embodiment.

If the thickness of the GaAs substrate 14 is thinner than the appropriate range, there is a concern that the compound semiconductor layer 2 is cleaved in the process. On the other hand, when the thickness of the GaAs substrate 14 is thicker than the appropriate radius, the material cost will increase. Therefore, the substrate size of the GaAs substrate 14 is large, for example, in the case of a diameter of 75 mm, in order to prevent The crack is opened during operation and is expected to be a thickness of 250 to 500 μπι. Similarly, in the case of a diameter of 50 mm, a thickness of 200 to 400 μm is desired; in the case of a diameter of 100 mm, a thickness of 350 to 600 μm is desired. In this manner, by thickening the thickness of the substrate in accordance with the substrate size of the GaAs substrate 14, the bending of the compound semiconductor layer 5 201214753 2 due to the light-emitting portion 7 can be reduced. Thereby, the wavelength distribution in the plane of the active layer 11 can be made small in order to make the temperature distribution during epitaxial growth uniform. Further, the shape of the GaAs substrate 14 is not particularly limited to a circular shape, and there is no problem even if it is a rectangle or the like. A buffer 15 is used to reduce the transmission of structural layer defects of the GaAs substrate 14 and the light-emitting portion 7. Therefore, if the quality of the substrate or the conditions for the epitaxial growth are selected, the buffer layer 15 is not necessarily required. Further, the material of the buffer layer 15 is preferably made of the same material as the substrate on which the epitaxial growth is performed. Therefore, in the present embodiment, it is preferable to use Ga a As in the buffer layer 15 in the same manner as the GaAs substrate 14. Further, in the buffer layer 15, in order to reduce the transmission of defects, a multilayer film composed of a material different from the GaAs substrate 14 can be used. The thickness of the buffer layer 15 is preferably 0.1 μm or more, more preferably 0.2 μm or more. The contact layer 16 (omitted in Fig. 4) is provided in order to reduce the contact resistance with the electrodes. The material of the contact layer 16 is preferably a material having a larger band gap than the active layer 11, and can be suitably used for AIxGai-xAs, (AlxGa, -x) yIi^-yPCOSXSI, 0 &lt; Y1S1). Further, the lower limit of the carrier concentration of the contact layer 16 is used to lower the contact resistance with the electrode, preferably 5 x 10 17 cm 3 or more, more preferably 1 x 10 18 cm -3 or more. The upper limit of the carrier concentration is desirably 2 X 1 0 19 cm _ 3 which is liable to cause a decrease in crystallinity. The thickness of the contact layer 16 is preferably 0.5 μm or more, and most preferably 1 μm or more. Although the upper limit 厚度 of the thickness of the contact layer 16 is not particularly limited, in order to make the cost of epitaxial growth into an appropriate range, it is desirable to make 5 μm to 201214753. In the present embodiment, a conventional growth method such as a molecular line epitaxy method (MBE method) or a reduced pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition method (MOCVD method) can be employed. Among them, the MOCVD method having excellent mass productivity is most desirable. Specifically, the Ga As substrate 14 used for epitaxial growth of the compound semiconductor layer 2 is desirably treated to remove surface contamination or a natural oxide film before the growth step or heat treatment. Each of the layers constituting the above-described compound semiconductor layer 2 can mount a GaAs substrate 14 having a diameter of 50 to 150 mm in an MOCVD apparatus while being epitaxially grown to be laminated. Further, the MOCVD apparatus can be a commercially available large-sized device such as a self-propelled or high-speed rotary type. When epitaxial growth of each layer of the compound semiconductor layer 2 is carried out, a raw material of the group III constituent element can use, for example, trimethylaluminum ((CH3)3A1), trimethylgallium ((CH3)3Ga), and trimethylindium ( (CH3) 3In) » In addition, as the doping raw material of Mg, for example, biscyclopentadienyl magnesium (bis-(C5H5) 2Mg) or the like can be used. Further, as the doping material for Si, for example, dioxane (Si2H6) or the like can be used. Further, as a raw material of the group V structural element, phosphine (P Η 3 ), hydrazine (AsH 3 ) or the like can be used. Further, in the case where P-type GaP is used as the current diffusion layer 8, the growth temperature of each layer can be from 720 to 770 °C, and in the case of other layers, it can be from 600 to 700 °C. Further, in the case where P-type GalnP is used as the current diffusion layer 8, -34- 5 201214753 can be used at 600 to 700 °C. Further, the carrier concentration, layer thickness, and temperature conditions of each layer can be appropriately selected. The compound semiconductor layer 2 obtained in this manner can obtain a good surface state with few crystal defects even though it has the light-emitting portion 7. Further, the compound semiconductor layer 2 may be subjected to surface processing such as honing in accordance with the element structure. (Joining Step of Functional Substrate) Next, the compound semiconductor layer 2 and the functional substrate 3 are bonded. The bonding of the compound semiconductor layer 2 and the functional substrate 3 is performed by first honing the surface of the current diffusion layer 8 constituting the compound semiconductor layer 2 to perform mirror processing. Next, the functional substrate 3 attached to the mirror-honed surface of the current diffusion layer 8 is prepared. Further, the surface of the functional substrate 3 is honed to the mirror surface before being bonded to the current diffusion layer 8. Next, the compound semiconductor layer 2 and the functional substrate 3 are carried into a general semiconductor material attaching device, and electrons are collided with the surface of both surfaces which have been mirror-honed in a vacuum, and then the neutralized Ar beam is irradiated. Then, the load can be applied at room temperature by superimposing the surfaces of both of them in the adhesion maintaining device (see Fig. 13). Regarding the joining, it is more desirable that the joint surface be the same material from the viewpoint of the stability of the joining condition. Bonding (attaching) is optimum for room temperature bonding under such a vacuum, and bonding can also be performed using a eutectic metal or an adhesive. (Step of Forming First and Second Electrodes) -35 - 201214753 Next, the n-type ohmic electrode 4 of the first electrode and the p-type ohmic electrode 5 of the second electrode are formed. The n-type ohmic electrode 4 and the p-type ohmic electrode 5 are formed by first selectively removing the Ga As substrate 14 and the buffer layer 15 from the compound semiconductor layer 2 bonded to the functional substrate 3 by an ammonia-based etchant. Next, an n-type ohmic electrode 4 is formed on the surface of the exposed contact layer 16. Specifically, AuGe and Ni alloy/Pt/Au are laminated by a vacuum deposition method in an arbitrary thickness, and then patterned by a general photolithography method to form an n-type ohmic electrode 4. Then, the current diffusion layer 8 is exposed by selectively removing the predetermined range of the contact layer 16, the upper cladding layer 13, the upper light guiding layer 12, the lower light guiding layer 1 and the p-type lower cladding layer 9. The surface of the exposed current diffusion layer 8 forms a p-type ohmic electrode 5. Specifically, for example, AuBe/Au is laminated by a vacuum deposition method to have an arbitrary thickness, and then patterned by a general photolithography method to form a p-type ohmic electrode 5. Thereafter, the alloying is performed by heat treatment at, for example, 400 to 500 ° C for 5 to 20 minutes, whereby the low-resistance n-type ohmic electrode 4 and the ytterbium-type ohmic electrode 5 can be formed. (Step of Forming Third Electrode) The third electrode is formed on the back surface of the functional substrate. Depending on the configuration of the components, it is possible to combine functions of an ohmic electrode, a Schottky electrode, a reflection function, a eutectic grain bonding structure, and the like. In the transparent substrate, a material such as Au, Ag, or A1 is formed to form a structure for reflection. Between the substrate and the above materials, for example, a transparent film of ruthenium oxide, ITO or the like can be inserted. The formation method can be a conventional technique such as a sputtering method or a vapor deposition method. Further, by making the electrode surface side a eutectic metal such as AuSn or the like, an error-free solder material or the like, it is simplified in the crystal grain bonding step, and it is necessary to use no paste. The formation method can be a conventional technique such as a sputtering method, a vapor deposition method, plating, or printing. By using a metal connection, heat conduction is improved and the heat release characteristics of the light-emitting diode are improved. In the case where the above two functions are combined, it is also suitable to insert the barrier metal or oxide so that the metal does not diffuse. These can be selected by the component structure and the substrate material. (Processing Step of Functional Substrate) Next, the shape of the functional substrate 3 is processed. The processing of the functional substrate 3 is first performed in a V-shaped trench on the surface where the third electrode 6 is not formed. At this time, the inclined surface 3b having the inner side surface on the side of the third electrode 6 having the v-shaped groove and the angle α which is parallel to the surface of the light-emitting surface is formed. Then, from the side of the compound semiconductor layer 2, dicing is performed at predetermined intervals to be wafer-formed. Further, the vertical surface 3 a of the functional substrate 3 is formed by dicing at the time of wafer formation. The method of forming the inclined surface 3 b is not particularly limited, and can be combined with a conventional method such as a wet etching method, a dry etching method, a scribing method, or a laser processing, but it is preferable to use shape controllability. And a highly productive cutting method. The manufacturing yield can be improved by using a cutting method. Further, the method of forming the vertical surface 3a is not particularly limited, and is preferably formed by laser processing, scribing/cracking, or cutting. Manufacturing costs can be reduced by using laser processing, scribing/cracking. That is, at the time of wafer separation, it is not necessary to provide a dicing portion, and since a large number of light-emitting diodes can be manufactured, the manufacturing cost can be reduced. On the other hand, the cutting method has excellent cutting stability. Finally, if necessary, the crushed layer and the dirt are removed by etching using a sulfuric acid/hydrogen peroxide mixed solution or the like. The light-emitting diode 1 is manufactured in this manner. As described above, the light-emitting diode 1 according to the present embodiment includes the compound semiconductor layer 2 including the light-emitting portion 7 having the well layer 17 composed of the composition formula (InjMGam) As (OSX1S1). Further, in the light-emitting diode 1 of the present embodiment, the current diffusion layer 8 is provided on the light-emitting portion 7. Since the current diffusion layer 8 is transparent to the light-emitting wavelength, it can be formed without absorbing the light emitted from the light-emitting portion 7. High output / high efficiency LED II. The functional substrate is excellent in moisture resistance due to stability and corrosion-free material. Therefore, according to the light-emitting diode 1 of the present embodiment, it is possible to provide the light-emitting diode 1 having an emission wavelength of 850 nm or more and having excellent monochromaticity and high output/high efficiency and moisture resistance. Further, when the light-emitting diode 1 of the present embodiment is compared with a transparent substrate-type AlGaAs-based light-emitting diode obtained by a conventional liquid phase epitaxy method, it is possible to provide light emission of about 2 times or more. High efficiency output LED 1 for efficiency. In addition, it also improves the reliability of high temperature and high humidity. -38- 5 201214753 &lt;Light Emitting Diode (Second Embodiment)&gt; The MA and MB drawings are for explaining the pattern of the light-emitting diode according to the second embodiment of the present invention: Fig. 4A The plan view is taken; the i-th BB is a cross-sectional view along the CC: line shown in Fig. 14A (the light guiding layers 1 and 12 are omitted from illustration). The light-emitting diode according to the second embodiment is characterized in that it includes a light-emitting portion 7 having a well layer 17 composed of a compositional formula (InxlGai-xl) As (0SXK1) and a composition formula (Alj^Gai). -xd^In, -Y1P (0SX2 &lt;1, 0 &lt; Y1S1) The active layer 1 of the quantum well structure of the barrier layer 18, and the composition of the active layer 1 1 (AlX3Gai - X3 ) uim-wPCOsxssi The first light guiding layer ι 〇 and the second light guiding layer 12 formed by 'iXYSsi' and the first one of the first light guiding layer 1 〇 and the second light guiding layer 12 interposed therebetween and sandwiching the active layer 11 The cladding layer 9 and the second cladding layer 13; the current diffusion layer 8 is formed on the light-emitting portion 7, and the functional substrate 31 is disposed opposite to the light-emitting portion 7 and contains 90% of the emission wavelength The reflection layer 23 of the above reflectance is bonded to the current diffusion layer 8; and the first cladding layer 9 and the second cladding layer 13 are composed of a composition formula (AlX4Ga, -X4) vs In, - Y3P (0&0&lt;X4&lt;lt;;1 ^ Ο &lt;Υ3&lt;1). In the light-emitting diode of the second embodiment, it is possible to have a reflectance of 90% or more with respect to the light-emitting wavelength, and to have the insulating substrate 3 1 including the reflective layer 23 disposed on the light-emitting portion 7 The light is efficiently taken out from the main light extraction surface. In the example shown in the first and fourth figures, the functional substrate 3 1 201214753 includes the second electrode 21 on the lower surface 8b of the current diffusion layer 8, and the second electrode 21 is covered by the second electrode 21 In this manner, a reflective structure composed of the transparent conductive film 22 and the reflective layer 23 and a layer (substrate) 30 made of tantalum or niobium are laminated. In the light-emitting diode of the second embodiment, the functional substrate 31 preferably contains a layer composed of tantalum or niobium. Since it is a material that is difficult to corrode, moisture resistance will increase. The reflective layer 23 is made of silver (Ag), aluminum (A1), gold (Au) or the like. These materials are high in reflectance, and the light reflectance from the reflective layer 23 can be made 90% or more. The functional substrate 31 can be bonded to the reflective layer 23 by a eutectic metal such as Auln, AuGe &gt; AuSn, or a combination of inexpensive substrates (layers) such as tantalum or niobium. In particular, the Au In bonding temperature is low, and the thermal expansion coefficient is different from that of the light-emitting portion. The most suitable combination of the germanium substrate (tantalum layer) for bonding is the most suitable. From the viewpoint of quality stability, it is also desirable that the functional substrate 31 be such that the current diffusion layer, the reflective metal, and the eutectic metal do not diffuse into each other, for example, by inserting titanium (Ti), tungsten (W), platinum (Pt), or the like. The structure of a layer composed of a high melting point metal. &lt;Light Emitting Diode (Embodiment 3)> Fig. 15 is a view for explaining a pattern of a light-emitting diode according to a third embodiment of the present invention. The light-emitting diode of the third embodiment is characterized in that it includes an illuminating-40-201214753 portion 7, which has a well layer 17 composed of an alternating layer of composition formula (InxiGai-χι) As (0SX1S1) and a composition thereof. (-Y1P (0SX2S1, 0 &lt; Υ1^1) The active layer 1 of the quantum well structure of the barrier layer 18, and the composition of the active layer 1 1 (A1 X 3 G ai - X 3 ) nliM- The first light guiding layer 10 and the second light guiding layer 12 composed of nPCOSXSS1 'CXYSS1) and the first package sandwiching the active layer 11 with the first light guiding layer 10 and the second light guiding layer 12 interposed therebetween The cladding layer 9 and the second cladding layer 13; the current diffusion layer 8 is formed on the light-emitting portion 7, and the functional substrate 51 is disposed opposite to the light-emitting portion 7 and contains 90% or more of the emission wavelength The reflective layer 53 of the reflective layer of the reflectance and the metal substrate 50 are bonded to the current diffusion layer 8; and the first cladding layer 9 and the second cladding layer 13 are composed of a composition formula (AlX4Gai-X4) Υ3 Ιη|- Υ3Ρ(0幺X4S1' 0 &lt; Y3S1 ). In the light-emitting diode of the third embodiment, the point that the functional substrate contains the metal substrate is a structure characteristic of the light-emitting diode of the second embodiment. The metal substrate 50 is highly exothermic, contributes to high-luminance of the light-emitting diode, and can make the life of the light-emitting diode long. From the viewpoint of heat dissipation, the metal substrate 50 is preferably composed of a metal having a thermal conductivity of 130 W/m·? or more. A thermal conductivity of 130 W/m. A metal above Κ, for example, molybdenum (138 W/m . K) or tungsten (174 W/m · K); silver (thermal conductivity = 420 W/m · K ), copper ( Thermal conductivity = 398 W/m · K ), gold (thermal conductivity = 320 W/mK), aluminum (thermal conductivity 41 - 201214753 = 23 6 W/m · K ). As shown in Fig. 15, the compound semiconductor layer 2 has an active layer η, and the light guide layer (not shown) is interposed therebetween to sandwich the first cladding layer (lower cladding layer) 9 and the second package. The coating (upper cladding layer) 13, the current diffusion layer 8 on the lower side of the first cladding layer (lower cladding layer) 9, and the second layer on the upper side of the second cladding layer (upper cladding layer) 1 electrode 5 5 and a contact layer 56 of substantially the same size. The functional substrate 51 is provided on the lower surface 8b of the current diffusion layer 8 with a second electrode 57' and a reflective structure in which the transparent conductive film 52 and the reflective layer 53 are laminated so as to cover the second electrode 57, and The metal substrate 50 is configured such that the bonding surface 50a of the metal substrate 50 is bonded to the surface 5 3 b opposite to the compound semiconductor layer 2 constituting the reflective layer 53 of the reflective structure. The reflective layer 53 is made of a metal such as copper, silver, gold, aluminum, or the like, or the like. These materials are high light reflectance, and the light reflectance from the reflective structure can be made 90% or more. By forming the reflective layer 53, the light from the active layer 11 is reflected by the reflective layer 53 to the front direction f, and the light extraction efficiency in the front direction f can be improved. Thereby, the luminance of the light-emitting diode can be made higher. The reflective layer 53 is preferably a laminated structure composed of Ag, a Ni/Ti barrier layer, and an Au-based eutectic metal (metal for connection) from the side of the transparent conductive film 52. The metal for connection described above has a low electrical resistance and is molten at a low temperature. By using the above-mentioned connecting metal, the thermal stress is not imparted to the compound semiconductor layer 2, and the metal substrate can be connected. The metal for connection is chemically stable and uses an Au-based eutectic metal having a low melting point. The eutectic metal of the above lanthanoid system may, for example, be a eutectic metal (Au-based eutectic metal) of an alloy such as AuSn or AuGe'AuSi. Further, it is preferable to add a metal such as titanium 'chromium or tungsten to the metal for connection. Thereby, a metal such as titanium, chromium or tungsten exhibits a function as a barrier metal, and impurities such as impurities contained in the metal substrate are diffused to the side of the reflective layer 53 to suppress the reaction. The transparent conductive film 52 is formed of an ITO film, an IZO film, or the like. Further, the reflective structure may be composed only of the reflective layer 53. Further, a so-called cold mirror using a refractive index difference of a transparent material such as a titanium oxide film, a multilayer film of a hafnium oxide film or white aluminum oxide, A1N instead of the transparent conductive film 52, or a transparent conductive film 52 may be used. Combined with the reflective layer 53. The metal substrate 50 can be formed of a plurality of metal layers. The structure of the plurality of metal layers is preferably formed by alternately laminating two metal layers, that is, the first metal layer 50A and the second metal layer 5B, as shown in Fig. 15. In particular, the number of layers of the first metal layer 50A and the second metal layer 50B is preferably an odd number in total. In this case, when the second metal layer 50B uses a material having a smaller thermal expansion coefficient than the compound semiconductor layer 2 from the viewpoint of bending or cracking of the metal substrate, the first metal layer 50A preferably uses a compound semiconductor layer. 3 -43- 201214753 The material whose thermal expansion coefficient is large is composed. Since the thermal expansion coefficient of the entire metal substrate is close to the thermal expansion coefficient of the compound semiconductor layer, bending or cracking of the metal substrate when the compound semiconductor layer and the metal substrate are bonded can be suppressed, so that the manufacturing yield of the light-emitting diode can be improved. improve. Similarly, when the second metal layer 50B is made of a material having a larger thermal expansion coefficient than the compound semiconductor layer 2, the first metal layer 50A is preferably made of a material having a smaller thermal expansion coefficient than the compound semiconductor layer 2. . Since the thermal expansion coefficient of the entire metal substrate is close to the thermal expansion coefficient of the compound semiconductor layer, bending or cracking of the metal substrate when the compound semiconductor layer and the metal substrate are bonded can be suppressed, so that the manufacturing yield of the light-emitting diode can be improved. improve. From the above viewpoints, either of the two metal layers may be used regardless of the first metal layer or the second metal layer. The two metal layers can be used, for example, of silver (coefficient of thermal expansion = 1 8.9 ppm/K), copper (coefficient of thermal expansion = 16.5 ppm/K), gold (coefficient of thermal expansion = 14.2 ppm/Κ), aluminum (coefficient of thermal expansion = 23.1) PPm/K), nickel (coefficient of thermal expansion = 13.4 ppm/K) and the metal layer of any of these alloys are composed of molybdenum (coefficient of thermal expansion = 5.1 ppm/K) and tin (coefficient of thermal expansion = 4.3 ppm) /K), a combination of chromium (coefficient of thermal expansion = 4.9 ppm/K) and a metal layer of any of these alloys. A suitable example is a metal substrate composed of three layers of Cu/Mo/Cu. From the above viewpoints, the same effect can be obtained even with a metal substrate composed of three layers of Mo/Cu/Mo, since the metal substrate composed of Cu/M〇/Cu 3 5 201214753 layer is easily processed. The structure in which the Cu is sandwiched by the high mechanical strength of the Cu is advantageous in that it is easier to cut than the metal substrate composed of the three layers of Mo/Cu/Mo. For example, in the case of a metal substrate composed of three layers of Cu (30 μmη ) / Μ ο (25 μηι) / Cu (30 μηι), the thermal expansion coefficient of the entire metal substrate is 6.1 ppm/K, from Mo ( 25 μηι) / Cu The case of a metal substrate composed of three layers of (70 μm) /Mo (25 μηι) was 5.7 ppm/K. Further, from the viewpoint of heat release, the metal layer constituting the metal substrate is preferably made of a material having a high thermal conductivity. Thereby, the heat dissipation property of the metal substrate is improved, so that the light-emitting diode can be made to emit light with high luminance, and the life of the light-emitting diode can be extended. For example, it is preferable to use silver (thermal conductivity = 420 W/m. K), copper (thermal conductivity = 3 9 8 W/m · K), gold (thermal conductivity = 320 W/m. K ), aluminum (thermal conduction). Coefficient = 236 W/m·K), molybdenum (138 W/m·K), tungsten (174 W/m·K) and alloys of these. More preferably, the metal layer has a coefficient of thermal expansion which is approximately equal to the coefficient of thermal expansion of the compound semiconductor layer. Particularly, the material of the metal layer is preferably a material having a thermal expansion coefficient of a compound semiconductor layer of ±1.5 ppm/K or less. Thereby, the stress caused by the heat of the light-emitting portion when the metal substrate and the compound semiconductor layer are bonded can be reduced, so that cracking of the metal substrate due to heat when the metal substrate and the compound semiconductor layer are connected can be suppressed. Therefore, the manufacturing yield of the light-emitting diode can be improved. The thermal conductivity of the entire metal substrate, for example, a metal substrate composed of three layers of Cu (30 μm) / Mo - 45 - 201214753 (25 μηι) / Cu (30 μηη) becomes 250 W/m·Κ; The case of a metal substrate composed of three layers of (25 pm)/Cu (70 μπι)/Μο (25 μιη) is 220 W/m·Κ.

In the present embodiment, a compound semiconductor layer was epitaxially grown on a GaAs substrate having a diameter of 76 mm and a thickness of 350 μm using a reduced pressure organometallic chemical vapor deposition apparatus (MOCVD apparatus) to form a crystal wafer. At the time of the growth of Jiajing's growth layer, the raw materials of the Dai people use trimethylaluminum ((CH3)3A1), trimethylgallium ((CH3)3Ga) and trimethylindium ((CH3) sin). . Further, as the doping raw material of Mg, for example, biscyclopentadienyl magnesium (bis-(C5H5) 2Mg) can be used. Further, as the doping material for Si, for example, dioxane (Si2H6) can be used. Further, as a raw material of the group V structural element, phosphine (PH3) or hydrazine (AsH3) can be used. Further, the growth temperature of each layer was grown by a current diffusion layer composed of P-type GaP at 750 °C. The other layers are grown at 700 °C. The buffer layer composed of GaAs has a carrier concentration of about 2 x 1018 cm-3 and a layer thickness of about 0.5 μm. The contact layer has a carrier concentration of about 2 x 1 018 cm _ 3 and a layer thickness of about 4 μm. The upper cladding layer has a carrier concentration of about 1 X 1018 cm -3 and a layer thickness of about 0.5 μm. The upper light guiding layer is made undoped and has a layer thickness of about 50 nm. The well layer is made of In〇.2Ga〇.gAs &gt; unbonded and layer thickness about 5 nm. The barrier layer is made into a non-difficult layer with a layer thickness of about 10 nm-47-201214753 (Alt^Gao.9) o. Mlno.sP. In addition, three layers of the well layer and the barrier layer are alternately laminated. The lower light guiding layer is made undoped and has a layer thickness of about 50 nm. The lower cladding layer has a carrier concentration of about 8 X 1 0 17 cm -3 and a layer thickness of about 0.5 μm. The intermediate layer has a carrier concentration of about 8 X 1 0 17 cm -3 and a layer thickness of about 50 nm. The current diffusion layer composed of GaP has a carrier concentration of about 3 x 1018 cm 3 and a layer thickness of about x μηη. Next, the current diffusion layer was honed from the surface up to a region where the depth was about 1 μm, and mirror-finished. The surface roughness (rms) of the current diffusion layer was made to be 0.18 n m by mirror processing. On the other hand, a functional substrate composed of n-type GaP attached to the surface of the current diffusion layer which has been subjected to mirror honing is prepared. In the functional substrate to which this is attached, a single crystal in which S i is added and the plane orientation is (1 1 1 ) is used so that the carrier concentration becomes about 2 × 10 17 cm _ 3 . In addition, the functional substrate has a diameter of 76 mm and a thickness of 2 5 0 μm. The surface of the functional substrate was honed to a mirror surface before being bonded to the current diffusion layer, and the surface roughness (rpm) of the surface was processed to 0.12 nm. Then, the above-mentioned functional substrate and epitaxial wafer are carried into a general semiconductor material attaching device, and the inside of the device is evacuated to 3xl (K5Pa. Next, on both the functional substrate and the current diffusion layer, The electron beam collides with the neutralized Ar beam after 3 minutes of irradiation. Thereafter, the surface of the functional substrate and the current diffusion layer are overlapped in the mounting device of the true-48-5 201214753 empty space. The pressure is 50 g/cm 2 to apply the load to 'bond both at room temperature. The bonding wafer is formed in this manner. Then 'selectively remove the GaAs substrate from the bonded wafer by the ammonia-based etchant And a GaAs buffer layer. Then, on the surface of the contact layer by vacuum deposition, the first electrode is formed such that AuGe and Ni alloy have a thickness of 0.5 μm, Pt has a thickness of 0.2 μm, and Au has a thickness of 1 μm. After that, pattern formation is performed by a general photolithography method, and an n-type ohmic electrode is formed on the first electrode. Then, a rough surface is formed on the surface of the light extraction surface on the surface on which the GaAs substrate is removed. Then, the 'second electrode system selectively removes the epitaxial layer in the region where the p-type ohmic electrode is formed' to expose the current diffusion layer. On the surface of the exposed current diffusion layer, 'AuBe becomes 0.2 μm, and Au is made. A p-type ohmic electrode was formed by a vacuum deposition method in a manner of 1 μm, and then alloyed at 450 ° C for 10 minutes to form a low-resistance p-type and n-type ohmic electrode. Further on the functional substrate On the back surface, Au having a thickness of μ2 μηη is formed, and a pattern is formed in a square of 22 0 μm. Then 'using a dicing cutter, the angle of the inclined surface is made from the back surface of the functional substrate in the region where the third electrode is not formed. When α is 70, the V-shaped groove is formed so that the thickness of the vertical surface is 80 μm. Then, using a die cutter, the compound semiconductor layer is cut at intervals of 305 μm and wafer-formed. The sulphuric acid/hydrogen peroxide mixture was used to etch away the fracture layer and the dirt caused by the grain cutting, and the light-emitting diode of the example of 201214753 was fabricated. The photodiode lamp is mounted on the mounting substrate by the light-emitting diode wafer of the first embodiment obtained as described above. The light-emitting diode lamp is supported by a grain bonding agent ( Erecting, using a gold wire and a line combining the n-type ohmic electrode of the light-emitting diode and the n-electrode terminal disposed on the surface of the erected substrate, and bonding the p-type ohmic electrode and the ρ-electrode terminal by a gold wire, using a general epoxy The resin was sealed and produced. The results of evaluating the characteristics of the light-emitting diode (light-emitting diode lamp) are shown in Table 7. As shown in Table 7, after a current was flown between the n-type and p-type ohmic electrodes, the emission was performed. Infrared light with a peak wavelength of 920 nm is formed. The forward voltage (Vf) at the time of the current flowing in the forward direction of 20 microamperes (mA) is reflected in the low resistance of the junction interface between the current diffusion layer constituting the compound semiconductor layer and the functional substrate, and the good ohmic of each ohmic electrode. Characteristic, and become about 1.22 volts. The luminous output when the forward current was made to 20 mA was 7 mW. Further, in a high-temperature and high-humidity environment at a temperature of 60 ° C and a humidity of 90%, a 1000-hour electrification test (20 mA energization) was carried out, and the results of measuring the residual ratio of the luminescence output are shown in Table 7. One hundred of these lamps were subjected to a high-temperature and high-humidity electric current test at 60 ° C, 90 RH%, and 20 mA. The average output residual rate after 1000 hours was 100%. -50- 5 201214753 Table 7 Substrate material Logarithmic emission wavelength (nm) Luminous output (mW) Forward voltage (V) Reliability PO: % Example 1 GaP 3 920 7 1.22 100% Example 2 Si 3 920 6 1.2 99% Example 3 Cu/Mo/Cu 3 920~ 5.9 1.2 100% Example 4 GaP 3 870 6.8 1.3 100% Example 5 Si 3 870 6.1 1.3 100% Example 6 GaP 3 960 6.5 1.18 99% Example 7 Si 3 960~ 5.3 1.18 99% Example 8 GaP 3 985 5 1.16 99% Example 9 Si 3 985~~~ 3.8 1.15 99% Example 10 GaP 5 920 7 1.24 99% Comparative Example AlGaAs 920 2 1.2 86%
