Fabrication of indium tin oxide (ITO) was optimized for InGaN-based amber/red light-emitting diodes (LEDs). A radiofrequency sputtering reduced the sheet resistivity of ITO at low pressures, and a subsequent two-step annealing resulted in a low sheet resistivity (below 2×10 Ωcm) and high transmittance (over 98%) in the amber and red regions between 590 nm to 780 nm. Double ITO layers by sputtering could form an excellent ohmic contact with p-GaN. Application of the double ITO layers on amber and red LEDs enhanced light output power by 15.6% and 13.0%, respectively, compared to those using ITO by e-beam evaporation.
针对基于氮化铟镓(InGaN)的琥珀色/红色发光二极管(LED),对氧化铟锡(ITO)的制备工艺进行了优化。射频溅射在低压下降低了ITO的薄层电阻,随后的两步退火使得在590 nm至780 nm的琥珀色和红色区域具有低薄层电阻(低于2×10Ωcm)和高透过率(超过98%)。通过溅射形成的双层ITO可以与p型氮化镓(p-GaN)形成良好的欧姆接触。与采用电子束蒸发ITO的琥珀色和红色LED相比,在其上应用双层ITO分别使光输出功率提高了15.6%和13.0%。
