摘要:
A radiation-emitting semiconductor component having a radiation-transmissive substrate (1), on the underside of which a radiation-generating layer (2) is arranged, in which the substrate (1) has inclined side areas (3), in which the refractive index of the substrate (1) is greater than the refractive index of the radiation-generating layer, in which the difference in refractive index results in an unilluminated substrate region (4), into which no photons are coupled directly from the radiation-generating layer, and in which the substrate (1) has essentially perpendicular side areas (5) in the unilluminated region. The component has the advantage that it can be produced with a better area yield from a wafer.

Proposed for high-performance light-emitting diodes are semiconductor chips (1) whose longitudinal sides are substantially longer than their transverse sides. Light extraction can be substantially improved in this manner.
摘要:
A radiation-emitting thin-film semiconductor component with a multilayer structure (12) based on GaN, which contains an active, radiation-generating layer (14) and has a first main area (16) and a second main area (18)—remote from the first main area—for coupling out the radiation generated in the active, radiation-generating layer. Furthermore, the first main area (16) of the multilayer structure (12) is coupled to a reflective layer or interface, and the region (22) of the multilayer structure that adjoins the second main area (18) of the multilayer structure is patterned one- or two-dimensionally.
摘要:
Method for fabricating a semiconductor chip which emits electromagnetic radiation, wherein to improve the light yield of semiconductor chips which emit electromagnetic radiation, a textured reflection surface is integrated on the p-side of a semiconductor chip. The semiconductor chip has an epitaxially produced semiconductor layer stack based on GaN, which comprises an n-conducting semiconductor layer, a p-conducting semiconductor layer and an electromagnetic radiation generating region which is arranged between these two semiconductor layers. The surface of the p-conducting semiconductor layer which faces away from the radiation-generating region is provided with three-dimensional pyramid-like structures. A mirror layer is arranged over the whole of this textured surface. A textured reflection surface is formed between the mirror layer and the p-conducting semiconductor layer.
摘要:
A semiconductor chip which emits electromagnetic radiation is presented. The chip includes an epitaxially produced semiconductor layer stack based on nitride semiconductor material, which includes an n-conducting semiconductor layer, a p-conducting semiconductor layer, and an electromagnetic radiation generating region, which is arranged between these two semiconductor layers. The chip further includes a base on which the semiconductor layer stack is arranged, and a mirror layer, which is arranged between the semiconductor layer stack and the base. The n-conducting semiconductor layer faces away from the base, and the n-conducting semiconductor layer or an outcoupling layer located on the n-conducting semiconductor layer has a radiation-outcoupling surface which, in turn, includes planar outcoupling sub-surfaces, which are positioned obliquely with respect to a main plane of the radiation-generating region and each form an angle of between 15° and 70° with this plane.

摘要:
A semiconductor component has a plurality of GaN-based layers, which are preferably used to generate radiation, produced in a fabrication process. In the process, the plurality of GaN-based layers are applied to a composite substrate that includes a substrate body and an interlayer. A coefficient of thermal expansion of the substrate body is similar to or preferably greater than the coefficient of thermal expansion of the GaN-based layers, and the GaN-based layers are deposited on the interlayer. The interlayer and the substrate body are preferably joined by a wafer bonding process.

摘要:
A radiation-emitting semiconductor component has a semiconductor body containing a nitride compound semiconductor, and a contact metallization layer disposed on a surface of the semiconductor body. In this case, the contact metallization layer is covered with a radiation-transmissive, electrically conductive contact layer. The radiation generated is coupled out through the contact metallization layer or through openings in the contact metallization layer.
