Domestic LED chip technology analysis

At present, the actual status of the domestic LED industry, compared to the domestic LED chip technology, foreign countries pay more attention to chip technology updates, many first-class companies have made breakthroughs in large-size silicon substrate GaN-based LED chip technology research and domestic new products More emphasis on production.

The chip is the core component of the LED . At present, there are many LED chip manufacturers at home and abroad , but there is no uniform standard for chip classification. According to power classification, there are high power and medium and low power; if classified by color, it is mainly red, green and blue; According to the shape classification, it is generally divided into two kinds of wafers and wafers; if classified by voltage, it is divided into low voltage DC chip and high voltage DC chip. Compared with domestic and foreign chip technology, foreign chip technology is new and domestic chip weight production is not heavy technology.

Substrate material and wafer growth technology key

  At present, the key to the development of LED chip technology is substrate materials and wafer growth technology. In addition to traditional sapphire, silicon (Si), and silicon carbide (SiC) substrate materials, zinc oxide (ZnO) and gallium nitride (GaN) are also the focus of current LED chip research. Currently, sapphire or silicon carbide substrates are widely used in the market to epitaxially grow wide bandgap semiconductor gallium nitride. Both of these materials are very expensive and are monopolized by large foreign companies. The price of silicon substrates is higher than that of sapphire and carbonization. The silicon substrate is much cheaper and can produce larger substrates, improve the utilization of MOCVD , and increase the yield of the die. Therefore, in order to break through the international patent barriers, Chinese research institutes and LED companies started researching silicon substrate materials.

  However, the problem is that the high quality bonding of silicon and gallium nitride is a technical difficulty for LED chips. The technical problems such as high density of defects and cracks caused by the large mismatch between the lattice constant and thermal expansion coefficient of the two have long hindered the field of chips. development of.

  Undoubtedly, from the perspective of the substrate, the mainstream substrates are still sapphire and silicon carbide, but silicon has become the development trend in the chip field in the future. For China, where the price war is relatively serious, silicon substrates have more cost and price advantages: the silicon substrate is a conductive substrate, which not only reduces the die area, but also eliminates the need for a dry etching step on the GaN epitaxial layer. In addition, the hardness of silicon is lower than that of sapphire and silicon carbide, and some costs can be saved in processing.

Currently, the LED industry mostly uses 2-inch or 4-inch sapphire substrates. If silicon-based GaN technology is used, at least 75% of raw material cost can be saved. According to estimates by Sanken Electric Co., Japan, the cost of manufacturing a large-size blue GaN LED using a silicon substrate will be 90% lower than that of a sapphire substrate and a silicon carbide substrate.
