The material of the crystal layer 22 can be selected, for example, from a material of the gallium nitride (GaN) series, for example, including indium gallium nitride (in〇aN), aluminum gallium nitride (AlGaN) or aluminum indium phosphide. The gallium (AlInGaP) series, etc. In addition, the stray layer 22 may further comprise a multiple quantum well (MQW) 223 to generate the desired light, and the multiple quantum well layer 223 is sandwiched between the first semiconductor layer 221 And the second semiconductor layer 222. In order to electrically conduct the second semiconductor layer 222, the first semiconductor layer 221 and a portion of the multiple quantum well layer 223 is removed by, for example, a lithography process to form a recess 224 for exposing a portion of the surface of the second semiconductor layer 222. The first electrode 23 is disposed on the second semiconductor layer 222. The exposed surface, that is, the first electrode 23 is disposed in the recess 224. The photo-electric element 2 may further include a current diffusion layer 28' which is a transparent conductive layer (TCL)' Above the worm layer 22, the current is uniformly diffused and then passed through the first semiconductor layer 221 and then through the multiple quantum well layer 223. The material of the current diffusion layer 28 of this embodiment may be, for example, indium tin oxide (IT0) to avoid light shielding. The second electrode 24 is disposed on the epitaxial layer 22 and on the current spreading layer 28. The magnetic member of the present invention can be disposed within or adjacent to the photovoltaic stack 20 and produces a magnetic field through the photovoltaic stack 20. The magnetic member 30 of the present embodiment is a magnetic material layer and is disposed adjacent to the photovoltaic laminate 20 as an example. The magnetic member 30 is disposed under the photovoltaic laminate 20. Here, the photovoltaic stack 20 further includes a mirror 25, and the magnetic member 30 is disposed under the mirror 25. The material of the magnetic member 30 may include, for example, iron, cobalt, nickel or manganese, the magnetic member 30 may further comprise a highly reflective material such as aluminum or silver, or the magnetic 201222876 member 30 may form a reflective structure, whereby the photovoltaic stack 20 may not A mirror 25 needs to be provided. The magnetic member 30 can be disposed under the photovoltaic stack 20 by evaporation or bonding. After the setting, a strong magnetic field can be applied, so that the magnetic member 30 obtains a fixed magnetic property (the N pole and the S pole thereof are as shown), and the magnetic field caused by the magnetic member 30 can provide the magnetic force in the Y-axis direction to the photoelectric Stack 20. Of course, if the material of the magnetic member 30 itself has a magnetic force to generate a magnetic field, the step of applying a magnetic field is not required. By passing the magnetic field in the Y-axis direction of the photo-electric stack 20, the velocity component of the carrier of the photo-stack 20 in the X and Z-axis directions can be changed by the Hall effect to change its motion path, for example, to enable the carrier. The motion becomes spiral, thereby extending the movement path of the carrier from the second electrode 24 to the first electrode 23, thereby achieving the purpose of current spreading, or increasing the time that the carrier stays in the main light-emitting region to increase the chance of composite light-emitting of the carrier. And improve the luminous efficiency. In addition to the above-described positions, the magnetic member of the present invention can be disposed at various positions of the photovoltaic stack to generate a magnetic field through the photo-lamination to change the motion path of the motion carrier by the Hall effect, as exemplified below. Referring to Fig. 4, in the photovoltaic element 2a of the present aspect, the photovoltaic element 2a comprises a photovoltaic stack 20 and a magnetic member. The photo-electric element 2a has two recesses 224 such that the epitaxial layer (including the first semiconductor layer 221, the second semiconductor layer 222 and the multiple quantum well layer 223) forms a mesa and exposes a portion of the second semiconductor layer. 222 surface. The photo-electric element 2a further includes a passivation layer 26 disposed on the epitaxial layer, the current diffusion layer 28, the first electrode 23 and the second electrode 24, 201222876 and extended to the grooves 224. . Here, the magnetic member includes two magnetic layers 31, 32 which are respectively located in the grooves 224 of the photovoltaic element 2a and are located on both sides of the land. The magnetic layers 31, 32 are also disposed adjacent to the multiple quantum well layers 223 of the crystallized layer 22, and adjacent to the multiple quantum well layers 223. The magnetic layers 31, 32 can be formed in the recess 224 by, for example, evaporation, lithography, and etching processes. Thereby, the magnetic layers 31, 32 generate a magnetic field that passes through the photovoltaic stack 20, and can provide magnetic force in the X-axis direction to the photovoltaic stack 20. By passing the magnetic field in the X-axis direction of the photo-electric stack 20, the velocity component of the carrier of the photo-stack 20 in the x-axis and the x-axis direction can be changed by the Hall effect to change its motion path, for example, to change the motion of the carrier. Is spiral, thus extending the movement path of the carrier from the second electrode 24 to the first electrode 23, to achieve the purpose of current spreading, or increasing the time that the carrier stays in the main light-emitting region, thereby increasing the chance of carrier composite luminescence, and improving Luminous performance. Further, in this embodiment, the height of the magnetic layers 31, 32 of the magnetic member may not exceed the height of the platform 以避免 to avoid shading. The state shown in Fig. 4 is exemplified by the height of the magnetic layers 31, 32 and the height of the groove 224. Since the magnetic member is adjacent to the multiple quantum well layer 223, and the multiple quantum well layer 223 is the main light-emitting region, the magnetic force can have a strong influence on the carrier in the main light-emitting region under the setting conditions, so the strong magnetic force can It more effectively affects the motion path of the carrier, increases the chance of composite light emission of the carrier, and improves the luminous efficiency. Referring to Fig. 5, in the photovoltaic element 2b of the present aspect, the photovoltaic element 2b includes a photovoltaic stack 20 and a magnetic member 30. The magnetic member 10 201222876 30 is disposed in the photovoltaic stack 20 between the second electrode 24 and the epitaxial layer 22 . Here, the magnetic member 30 is embedded in the current diffusion layer 28 and located at the second electrode 24 . Below, and the magnetic member 30 and the second electrode 24 at least partially overlap. Since the magnetic member 30 and the second electrode 24 are generally light-shielding materials, by partially overlapping the magnetic member 30 and the second electrode 24, the area where the light emitted by the light-emitting diode is blocked can be reduced to reduce the occurrence of light-shielding. . Taking FIG. 5 as an example, the magnetic member 30 is located directly under the second electrode 24 and completely covered by the second electrode 24, so that the magnetic member 30 does not cause an additional light blocking effect. The magnetic member 30 can be formed on the epitaxial layer 22 by, for example, an evaporation, lithography, and etching process. Thereby, the magnetic member 30 generates a magnetic field passing through the photovoltaic stack 20, and can supply magnetic force in the Y-axis direction to the photovoltaic stack 20. By passing the magnetic field in the Y-axis direction of the photo-electric stack 20, the velocity component of the carrier of the photo-stack 20 in the X and Z-axis directions can be changed by the Hall effect to change its motion path, for example, to change the motion of the carrier. Is spiral, thus extending the movement path of the carrier from the second electrode 24 to the first electrode 23, to achieve the purpose of current spreading, or increasing the time that the carrier stays in the main light-emitting region, thereby increasing the chance of carrier composite luminescence, and improving Luminous performance. Of course, in addition to the above-described state and arrangement position of the magnetic member 30, the magnetic member 30 may have other variations and positions. For example, the magnetic member 30 may include at least three magnetic layers, and the magnetic member 30 may be disposed on the photovoltaic stack. The upper or the epitaxial layer 22 or the magnetic member 30 may be disposed on either side of the four sides of the optoelectronic stack 20, whereby the magnetic member 30 can provide magnetic force in the X, Y and/or Z axis directions to the photo stack Layer 20. Further, the present invention does not limit the shape of the magnetic member 30, which is a long strip shape, a plurality of dots, and not a continuation of eight 〇 exemplified below with reference to Fig. 6C. Figure 6C is a schematic top view of the photovoltaic element W2e. As shown in the figure, the magnetic member 30 is located between the first electrode 23 and the first, and the magnetic member 3 is elongated and has a major axis direction perpendicular to the imaginary line passing through the first electrode 23 and the second electrode 24. The magnetic member generates a magnetic field that passes through the photo-lamination in the γ-axis direction (indicating the direction of the paper surface). Here, the magnetic member 3 is exemplified by being embedded in the photovoltaic laminate 2, and the magnetic member 3G may be located on or adjacent to the photovoltaic laminate 2(); As shown in FIG. 6B, the magnetic member 3 is located between the first electrode phantom and the second electrode 24, and the magnetic layer is formed in a strip shape in which the magnetic structures are discontinuously distributed and includes a three magnetic layer Between the magnetic layers. The longitudinal direction of the blood is substantially parallel to the imaginary line of the first electrode 23 and the second electrode 24. The interaction of the moving path of the moving carrier can be achieved by the interaction of the magnetic fields of the photoelectric stack by the three magnetic layers. More prominently. As shown in Fig. 6C, the magnetic members 3 are dotted and distributed in the photovoltaic stack 20. Each of the magnetic members of the dot forms a small magnetic field, and the interaction of the magnetic fields allows the moving carrier to have Different from the motion path shown in Fig. 6B. By different shapes or distributions of magnetic members, electric fields of different strengths or directions can be generated to produce different elongation effects on the moving carriers, thereby increasing the applicability of the magnetic members. 12 201222876, in summary, In the photovoltaic element of the invention, by the arrangement of the magnetic member, the magnetic member can generate a magnetic field through the photoelectric stack, thereby causing the carrier in the movement in the photoelectric stack to be subjected to a Hall effect to change the 1 motion path to enhance the photoelectricity. For example, for the light-emitting diode, the Hall effect is used to make the moving carrier of the photoelectric stack work, change its moving direction, and then extend the moving path of the carrier to achieve the purpose of current spreading, or increase the load of 2 minutes. , the time of the main illuminating zone increases the carrier compositing luminescence' to enhance the illuminating efficiency.
