1233703 玫、發明說明: 【發明所屬之技術領域】 本發明係關於一種白光發光元件及其製備方法,特別係 關於具有含矽發光薄膜之白光發光元件及其製備方法。 【先前技術】 目前有二種利用發光二極體來產生白光的方法··一種是 將紅、綠、藍三顆發光二極體同時點亮,並藉由三原色之 此口而產生白光;另一種是以藍光或紫外光源激發螢光體 產生互補光,並藉由光源與互補光之混合而產生白光。前 者因一種發光二極體之驅動電壓、光輸出、溫度特性與元 件壽命等均有所差$,因此在實際應用時產生相當多的問 題。後者雖然只需一個發光二極體,而且在驅動電路之設 計上亦較容易,但是其使用之螢光體具有發光及轉換效率 不佳的缺點。 在世界各國對節約能源以及防止地球溫室效應等議題之 重視下,省電、環保且安全的白光發光二極體儼然已成為 21世紀的新光源。目前廣泛用來生產白光發光二極體的技 術是在1996年9月日本日亞化學公司所提出,其係在氮化 銦鎵(InGaN)藍光(波長約460奈米)二極體上塗上一層YAG 螢光體。惟,其缺點是藍光在激發YAG螢光體產生黃光 時,部分能量在轉換過程中損失掉,因而目前發光效率只 有10至15流明/瓦(im/w)。1999年i月曰本住友電氣 (Sumitomo Electric)公司研發出使用硒化鋅(ZnSe)材料之白光 發光二極體,其使用硒化鋅之白光發光二極體雖然不需要1233703 Rose, description of the invention: [Technical field to which the invention belongs] The present invention relates to a white light emitting element and a preparation method thereof, and particularly to a white light emitting element having a silicon-containing light emitting film and a preparation method thereof. [Previous technology] There are currently two methods of using a light-emitting diode to generate white light ... One is to light three red, green, and blue light-emitting diodes at the same time, and produce white light through the three primary colors; One is to use a blue or ultraviolet light source to excite the phosphor to generate complementary light, and generate white light by mixing the light source with the complementary light. The former has a difference in driving voltage, light output, temperature characteristics, and component life of a light-emitting diode, so it causes a lot of problems in practical applications. Although the latter requires only one light-emitting diode, and it is relatively easy to design the driving circuit, the phosphors used in it have the disadvantages of light emission and poor conversion efficiency. With the attention of countries around the world on issues such as energy conservation and the prevention of the global greenhouse effect, power-saving, environmentally-friendly and safe white light-emitting diodes have become new light sources in the 21st century. At present, the technology widely used to produce white light-emitting diodes was proposed by Japan's Nichia Chemical Company in September 1996, which is coated with a layer of indium gallium nitride (InGaN) blue light (about 460 nm) diode. YAG phosphor. However, its disadvantage is that when blue light excites the YAG phosphor to produce yellow light, part of the energy is lost during the conversion process, so the current luminous efficiency is only 10 to 15 lumens / watt (im / w). In January 1999, Sumitomo Electric developed a white light-emitting diode using zinc selenide (ZnSe) material. Although it does not require white light-emitting diodes using zinc selenide

Since the invention of the transistor in 1947, silicon has always played a very important role in the integrated circuit industry. According to Moore ’s prediction, the size of the components of integrated circuits will be reduced to half of the original about every 18 months. Moore's law is mainly based on the continuous innovation of new technologies. And the development of potential applications, and silicon materials are an important cornerstone of this rapid progress. After years of development, the process technology of silicon materials used in integrated circuits can be said to be the most complete and cost-effective. Therefore, if the silicon material can be further developed into a light emitting element, the light emitting element can be specifically integrated with a large-scale integrated circuit (VLSI). Silicon material (Group IV element) is an inefficient light source at room temperature, mainly The origin is that the dagger belongs to the Indirect ban (i_gap) material. Its Radiative recombination rate is very low, and the internal quantum efficiency is only about 丨 〇 · 6 to 1. 〇-7, so that it has always been excluded from its role as a light source.

However, although there has been good progress in the research and development of silicon-based light-emitting diodes, there have not been any commercialized optoelectronic products such as light-emitting diodes. Because porous silicon materials have a sponge-like structure, they have some significant disadvantages in the application of light-emitting 7L pieces. In terms of mechanical properties, the 'porous rhenium' material is not suitable for integration into a standard semiconductor process because of its S fragmentation. In addition, the porous material exhibits a high degree of activity in terms of chemical characteristics, and is liable to produce chemical interaction with oxygen atoms in the air, thereby deteriorating the photoelectric performance, so it is difficult to control the change of the photoelectric performance with time.
