摘要： Transparent conductive layers usable as ohmic contacts for III-V semiconductors with work functions between 4.1 and 4.7 eV are formed by annealing layers of transparent oxide with thin (0.1-5 nm) layers of conductive metal. When the layers interdiffuse during the annealing, some of the conductive metal atoms remain free to reduce resistivity and others oxidize to reduce optical absorption. Examples of the transparent oxides include indium-tin oxide, zinc oxide, and aluminum zinc oxide with up to 5 wt % Al. Examples of the metals include aluminum and titanium. The work function of the transparent conductive layer can be tuned to match the contacted semiconductor by adjusting the ratio of metal to transparent oxide.

摘要： Transparent ohmic contacts to p-GaN and other high-work-function (≧4.2 eV) semiconductors are fabricated from zinc stannate (e.g., ZnSnO3). ZnO and SnO2 may be sputtered from separate targets and annealed to form the zinc stannate. The Zn:Sn ratio may be tuned over the range between 1:2 and 2:1 to optimize bandgap, work function, conductivity, and transparency for the particular semiconductor and wavelength of interest. Conductivity may be improved by crystallizing the zinc stannate, by doping with up to 5 wt % Al or In, or both.

摘要： The electrical and optical performance of silver LED reflective contacts in III-V devices such as GaN LEDs is limited by silver's tendency to agglomerate during annealing processes and to corrode on contact with silver-reactive materials elsewhere in the device (for example, gallium or aluminum). Agglomeration and reaction are prevented, and crystalline morphology of the silver layer may be optimized, by forming a diffusion-resistant transparent conductive layer between the silver and the source of silver-reacting metal, (2) doping the silver or the diffusion-resistant transparent conductive layer for improved adhesion to adjacent layers, or (3) doping the silver with titanium, which in some embodiments prevents agglomeration and promotes crystallization of the silver in the preferred orientation.

摘要： Provided are light emitting diodes (LEDs) and methods of fabricating such LEDs. An LED may include a transparent conductive oxide (TCO) layer having a varying refractive index. For example, the refractive index may be higher at the interface of the TCO layer with an epitaxial stack than on the side of the TCO layer. The refractive index variability allows reducing light intensity losses in the LED. The refractive index variability may be achieved by feeding a substrate through a deposition chamber having a variable concentration of at least one process gas, such as oxygen. Specifically, the concentration of the process gas may be higher at one slit opening than at another slit opening. As the substrate moves through the deposition chamber, the TCO layer is continuously deposited. Due to the concentration variability, the resulting TCO layer may have a variable composition throughout the thickness of the TCO layer.

摘要： Provided are light emitting diodes (LEDs) and methods of fabricating such LEDs. Specifically, an LED has an epitaxial stack and current distribution layer disposed on and interfacing the epitaxial stack. The current distribution layer includes indium oxide and zinc oxide such that the concentration of indium oxide is between about 5% and 15% by weight. During fabrication, the current distribution layer is annealed at a temperature of less than about 500° C. or even at less than about 400° C. These low anneal temperature helps preserving the overall thermal budget of the LED while still yielding a current distribution layer having a low resistivity and low adsorption. A particular composition and method of forming the current distribution layer allows using lower annealing temperatures. In some embodiments, the current distribution layer is sputtered using indium oxide and zinc oxide targets at a pressure of less than 5 mTorr.
