摘要

A red-light AlGaInP light emitting diode (LED) is fabricated by using direct Wafer bonding technology. Taking N-GaN wafer as the transparent substrate, the red-light LED is flip-chiped onto a structured silicon submount. Electronic luminance (EL) test reveals that the luminance flux is 130% higher than that of the conventional LED made from the same LED wafer. Current-voltage (I-V) measurement indicates that the bonding processes do not impact the electrical property of AlGaInP LED in the small voltage region (V < 1.5 V). In the large voltage region (V > 1.5 V), the I-V characteristic exhibits space-charge-limited currents characteristic due to the p-GaAs/n-GaN bonding interface.
