BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention

The present disclosure relates to a structure of a lighting device, and in particular, to an LED device with flip-chip structure and manufacturing method thereof.


2. Description of the Related Art

Firstly, refer to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a sectional structure of a conventional LED device with flip-chip structure. The conventional flip-chip LED device 1 comprises a transparent protective substrate 101 (such as, a sapphire substrate), a glue layer 102 (such as, optical glue layer), a transparent conductor layer 103 (such as, an indium tin oxide layer), group III-V layer 104 (such as, a gallium phosphide layer or a gallium nitride layer), a first conductivity semiconductor layer 105 (such as, a P-type semiconductor layer), a quantum well and separation confining layer 106, a second conductivity semiconductor layer 107 (such as, a N-type semiconductor layer), a group III-V contacting layer 108 (such as, a gallium arsenide contacting layer or a gallium nitride contacting layer), a second conductivity metal electrode 109 (such as, a N-type metal electrode), a first conductivity metal electrode 110 (such as, a P-type metal electrode), an insulating layer 111 (such as, a silicon dioxide layer), a first smooth electrode layer 113 and a second smooth electrode layer 112 (such as, titanium or gold layer).


The first conductivity semiconductor layer 105, the quantum well and separation confining layer 106, the second conductivity semiconductor layer 107, the group III-V contacting layer 108 and the second conductivity metal electrode 109 are sequentially formed one portion of an upper surface of the group III-V layer 104, and the first conductivity metal electrode 110 is formed on other one portion of the upper surface of the group III-V layer 104, such that the first conductivity metal electrode 110 and each of the first conductivity semiconductor layer 105, the quantum well and separation confining layer 106, the second conductivity semiconductor layer 107, the group III-V contacting layer 108 and the second conductivity metal electrode 109 has gap therebetween, and other portions of the upper surface of the group III-V layer 104 is exposed, wherein second conductivity metal electrode 109 is formed on merely one portion of an upper surface of the group III-V contacting layer 108, and other portions of the upper surface of the group III-V contacting layer 108 is exposed.


The transparent conductor layer 103 is formed under a lower surface of the group III-V layer 104, and the glue layer 102 contacts the lower surface group III-V layer 104 and an upper surface of the transparent protective substrate 101, so as to glue the transparent protective substrate 101 with the transparent conductor layer 103. The insulating layer 111 is formed on an exposed portion of the upper surface of the group III-V layer 104 and an exposed portion of the upper surface of the group III-V contacting layer 108, the insulating layer 111 is further formed on a portion of an upper surface of the second conductivity metal electrode 109 and a portion of an upper surface of the first conductivity metal electrode 110, and openings are formed on the upper surfaces of the second conductivity metal electrode 109 and the first conductivity metal electrode 110. The second smooth electrode layer 112 and the first smooth electrode layer 113 are respectively formed on the openings on the upper surfaces of the second conductivity metal electrode 109 and the first conductivity metal electrode 110, and further cover a portion of an upper surface of the insulating layer 111.


During the manufacturing procedure of the conventional flip-chip LED device 1, one etching process is performed to etch the first conductivity semiconductor layer 105, the quantum well and separation confining layer 106, the second conductivity semiconductor layer 107 and the group III-V contacting layer 108, so as to expose the residual portions of the first conductivity semiconductor layer 105, the quantum well and separation confining layer 106, the second conductivity semiconductor layer 107 and the group III-V contacting layer 108, wherein the above residual portions form the second conductivity plat illumination region. In short, the etching process merely etches to group III-V layer 104.


The group III-V layer 104 functions as a cladding layer, and the cladding layer is coated with the first conductivity metal electrode 110. During the manufacturing procedure of the conventional flip-chip LED device 1, the first conductivity metal electrode 110 should be coated with the contacting metal and the thermal annealing process should be performed to form an Ohmic contact, and then the first conductivity metal electrode 110 is padded by and coated with the contacting metal. Since the first conductivity metal electrode 110 is formed on the cladding layer, the manufacturing procedure needs high temperature annealing, and it causes process uncertainty. In this case, the fabrication yield could be reduced.


In other one side, during the manufacturing procedure of the conventional flip-chip LED device 1, a gluing process and a flipping process are required, but the high temperature annealing causes the damage for the glue of the glue layer 102. Thus, merely the process of the non-substrate thin film flip-chip LED can be implemented, and it causes that the conventional flip-chip LED device 1 may be damaged easily during the manufacturing procedure.
