Method for treating the dislocation in a GaN-containing semiconductor layer

摘要

A method for treating the threading dislocation within a GaN-containing semiconductor layer is provided. The method includes a substrate is provided. A GaN-containing semiconductor layer with the threading dislocation is formed on the substrate. An etching process with an etching gas is performed to remove the threading dislocation in the GaN-containing semiconductor layer so as to increase the efficiency for the light emitting device.
