- the charge carrier transport and in particular the hole line pose a problem in nitride compound semiconductors with, for example, an InGaN / GaN multiple quantum well structure grown in the active zone by means of MOVPE (metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy), which leads to increased Auger recombinations thus to a reduced brightness of the MOVPE (metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy), which leads to increased Auger recombinations thus to a reduced brightness of the MOVPE (metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy), which leads to increased Auger recombinations thus to a reduced brightness of the MOVPE (metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy), which leads to increased Auger recombinations thus to a reduced brightness of the MOVPE (metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy), which leads to increased Auger recombinations thus to a reduced brightness of the MOVPE (metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy), which leads to increased Auger recombinations thus to a reduced brightness of the MO
- Optoelectronic semiconductor chip in the operation of generated light can result.
- Another problem is the aging of the electronic semiconductor chip due to dopant diffusion
- Quantum well layers that are closest to the p-type semiconductor region, which over the operating time of the
- optoelectronic semiconductor chip leads to a reduction of the electromagnetic radiation generated during operation.
- V-type defects can be used to inject current into the multiple quantum well structure, but this can lead to problems at higher operating temperatures or high operating currents.
- the diffusion of dopants, particularly magnesium, into the active region can be countered by the thickness of spacers between the p-type semiconductor region and the multiple quantum well structure, the growth temperature of the p-type semiconductor region, and the dopant concentration.
- a lower growth temperature of the p-type semiconductor region leads to a reduced diffusion of p-dopant in the active zone, but also to a poorer material quality and thus z. B. to a deteriorated efficiency of the semiconductor body.

- Quantum well layer adjacent to the p-type semiconductor region In the direction of the n-type semiconductor region, the first region then follows
- the first region has at least two and at most ten, in particular exactly five, first ones
- Quantum well layers on.

- Quantum well layers with respect to the efficiency of the generated electromagnetic radiation is optimal.
- Quantum well layer has a lower indium concentration than all first quantum well layers. That is, the larger band gap in the region of the second quantum well layers is achieved by a smaller indium concentration in the InGaN-based material of the quantum well layers.
- This indium concentration can be adjusted, for example, by varying the rate at which indium or gallium is provided during the MOVPE growth of the active zone. For example, both the reduction of the indium supply and the reduction of the gallium supply during the growth of the multiple quantum well structure leads to the formation of the second quantum well layer with a
- Quantum well layer an indium concentration which is smaller by at least 2% and at most 20%, in particular by at least 2% and at most 8%, relative to the indium concentration of all first quantum well layers.

- the first area then has z. InGaN quantum well layers, between which GaN barrier layers are arranged.
- a further method step in the growth direction, for example, on the side of the first region facing away from the n-type semiconductor region, there is a second region with at least a second quantum well layer and at least one second barrier layer is generated.
- the second area can in turn be generated by the MOVPE method on the first area.
- a p-type semiconductor region takes place on the side of the second region which faces away from the first region.
- the p-type semiconductor region can in turn be generated in the same epitaxial reactor by means of the MOVPE method, a p-type dopant, eg. As magnesium is added.

- Quantum well layer is the case.
- Quantum well layers leads to a larger electronic band gap. In this way, it is possible to adjust the second, larger electronic band gap particularly easily and accurately.
- the first and second barrier layers can be grown at the same temperatures, the z. B. at least 25 to at most 60 K are greater than that

- the method is carried out with the following steps:
- the at least one second quantum well layer is generated at a second growth rate
- One possibility is the indium concentration in the at least one second quantum well layer compared to the first
- a lower second growth rate leads to a lower indium concentration.
- the change in the growth rate may be carried out additionally or alternatively to the change in temperature and / or to change the indium molar flow.
- the method is carried out with the following steps:
- first quantum well layers and the at least one second quantum well layer consist of AlInGaN or are formed with this material
- the aluminum concentration in the at least one second quantum well layer is higher than in the first one
- the quantum well layers are formed with Al (x) In (y) Ga (1-x-y), where x is the concentration of aluminum and y is the concentration of indium. It has been shown that a further possibility of increasing the band gap in the at least one second quantum well layer compared to the first quantum well layers is the admixture of aluminum. Addition of aluminum to an InGaN quantum well layer in the range between 1% and 10% increases the band gap by about 0.2% to 5%

- FIG. 9B shows the profile for group I optoelectronic semiconductor chips as described here. As can be seen from a comparison of the figures, for conventional optoelectronic semiconductor chips without the second region 52 of the multiple quantum well structure, there is a reduction in the value of
- Semiconductor chip more stable against diffusion of the p-type dopant, in particular against the diffusion of magnesium, which is enhanced by a high growth temperature of the p-side and / or by long operating times.
- Optoelectronic semiconductor chip so among other things by increased brightness, by an improved ratio between the brightness at high current and low current and by an increased life.
- the invention is not limited by the description based on the embodiments of these. Rather, the invention encompasses every new feature as well as every combination of features, which in particular includes any combination of features in the patent claims, even if this feature or combination itself is not explicitly described in the claims

Abstract
L'invention concerne une puce de semi-conducteur optoélectronique (10) comprenant une zone active (5) réalisée sous la forme d'une structure à puits quantiques multiples (51, 52). Selon l'invention, - la structure à puits quantiques multiples (51, 52) comprend une première région (51) pourvue de premières couches de puits quantiques (51a) et de premières couches de barrière (51b) disposées de façon alternée et une seconde région (52) pourvue d'au moins une deuxième couche de puits quantiques (52A) et d'au moins une deuxième couche de barrière (52b), - les premières couches de puits quantique (51a) comprennent des premières bandes interdites électroniques (EQW1) – l'au moins une deuxième couche de puits quantiques (52A) comprend une seconde bande interdite électronique (EQW2), - la seconde bande interdite électronique (EQW2) de l'au moins une deuxième couche de puits quantiques (52A) est plus grande que la première bande interdite électronique (EQW1) des premières couches de puits quantiques (51a) et - la seconde région (52) est disposée plus près d'une région semi-conductrice de type p (4) que de la première région (51). En outre, l'invention concerne un procédé de fabrication d'une telle puce de semi-conducteur (10).
