GROWING AN IMPROVED P-GAN LAYER OF AN LED THROUGH PRESSURE RAMPING

摘要

The present disclosure involves an apparatus. The apparatus includes a photonic die structure that includes a light-emitting diode (LED) die. The LED die is a vertical LED die in some embodiments. The LED die includes a substrate. A p-doped III-V compound layer and an n-doped III-V compound layer are each disposed over the substrate. A multiple quantum well (MQW) layer is disposed between the p-doped III-V compound layer and the n-doped III-V compound layer. The p-doped III-V compound layer includes a first region having a non-exponential doping concentration characteristic and a second region having an exponential doping concentration characteristic. In some embodiments, the second region is formed using a lower pressure than the first region.
