Blue and green dual wavelength InGaN/GaN multi-quantum well (MQW) light-emitting diode (LED) has wide applications in full color display, monolithic white LED and solid state lighting, etc. Blue and green dual wavelength LEDs, which consist of InGaN strain-reduction layer, green InGaN/GaN MQW and blue InGaN/ GaN MQW, were grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), and the luminescence properties of dual wavelength LEDs with different well arrangements were studied by photoluminescence and electrolumines-cence. The experimental results indicated that well position played an important role on the luminescence evolvement from photoluminescence to electroluminescence. 相似文献

Mg-doped InGaN/GaN p-type short-period superlattices (SPSLs) are developed for hole injection and contact layers of green light-emitting diodes
(LEDs). V-defect-related pits, which are commonly found in an InGaN bulk layer, can be eliminated in an InGaN/GaN superlattice
with thickness and average composition comparable to those of the bulk InGaN layer. Mg-doped InGaN/GaN SPSLs show significantly
improved electrical properties with resistivity as low as ∼0.35 ohm-cm, which is lower than that of GaN:Mg and InGaN:Mg bulk
layers grown under optimized growth conditions. Green LEDs employing Mg-doped InGaN/GaN SPSLs for hole injection and contact
layers have significantly lower reverse leakage current, which is considered to be attributed to improved surface morphology.
The peak electroluminescence intensity of LEDs with a SPSL is compared to that with InGaN:Mg bulk hole injection and contact
layers. 相似文献

Electrical and electroluminescent properties were studied for GaN/InGaN light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with the n-GaN layer
up and with the top portion of the n layer made of undoped GaMnN to allow polarization modulation by applying an external
magnetic field (so-called “spin-LEDs”). The contact annealing temperature was kept to 750°C, which is the thermal stability
limit for retaining room-temperature magnetic ordering in the GaMnN layer. Measurable electroluminescence (EL) was obtained
in these structures at threshold voltages of ∼15 V, with a lower EL signal compared to control LEDs without Mn. This is related
to the existence of two parasitic junctions between the metal and the lower contact p-type layer and between the GaMnN and
the n-GaN in the top contact layer. 相似文献

We investigated the electrical and structural qualities of Mg-doped p-type GaN layers grown under different growth conditions
by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). Lower 300 K free-hole concentrations and rough surfaces were observed by
reducing the growth temperature from 1,040°C to 930°C. The hole concentration, mobility, and electrical resistivity were improved
slightly for Mg-doped GaN layers grown at 930°C with a lower growth rate, and also an improved surface morphology was observed.
In0.25Ga0.75N/GaN multiple-quantum-well light emitting diodes (LEDs) with p-GaN layers grown under different conditions were also studied.
It was found from photoluminescence studies that the optical and structural properties of the multiple quantum wells in the
LED structure were improved by reducing the growth temperature of the p-layer due to a reduced detrimental thermal annealing
effect of the active region during the GaN:Mg p-layer growth. No significant difference in the photoluminescence intensity
depending on the growth time of the p-GaN layer was observed. However, it was also found that the electroluminescence (EL)
intensity was higher for LEDs having p-GaN layers with a lower growth rate. Further improvement of the p-GaN layer crystalline
and structural quality may be required for the optimization of the EL properties of long-wavelength (∼540 nm) green LEDs. 相似文献

We present a comparative study on temperature dependence of electroluminescence (EL) of InGaN/GaN multiple-quantum-well (MQW)
light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with identical structure but different indium contents in the active region. For the ultraviolet
(UV) and blue LEDs, the EL intensity decreases dramatically with decreasing temperature after reaching a maximum at 150 K.
The peak energy exhibits a large redshift in the range of 20–50 meV with a decrease of temperature from 200 K to 70 K, accompanying
the appearance of longitudinal-optical (LO) phonon replicas broadening the low energy side of the EL spectra. This redshift
is explained by carrier relaxation into lower energy states, leading to dominant radiative recombination at localized states.
In contrast, the peak energy of the green LED exhibits a minimal temperature-induced shift, and the emission intensity increases
monotonically with decreasing temperature down to 5 K. We attribute the different temperature dependences of the EL to different
degrees of the localization effects in the MQW regions of the LEDs. 相似文献

We have compared the effects of Mg-doped GaN and In0.04Ga0.96N layers on the electrical and electroluminescence (EL) properties of the green light emitting diodes (LEDs). To investigate
the effects of different p-layers on the LED performance, the diode active region structures were kept identical. For LEDs with p-InGaN layers, the p-In0.04Ga0.96N/GaN polarization-related EL peak was dominant at low current levels, while the multiple-quantum-well (MQW) peak became dominant
at higher current levels, different from LEDs with p-GaN layers. Also, LEDs with p-InGaN exhibited slightly higher turn on voltages (V
on
) and forward voltages (V
f
) compared to LEDs with p-GaN layers. However, the MQW related EL intensity was much higher and diode series resistance lower for LEDs with p-InGaN layers compared with LEDs with p-GaN, showing possible improvements in output power for LEDs with p-InGaN layers. The diodes with p-GaN layers typically showed V
f
of ∼3.1 V at a drive current of 20 mA, with a series resistance of ∼24.7 Ω, while diodes with p-InGaN showed V
f
of ∼3.2 V, with a series resistance of ∼18.5 Ω, for device dimensions of 230 μm by 230 μm. 相似文献

研究了MOCVD生长的具有双发射峰结构的InGaN/GaN多量子阱发光二极管(LED)的结构和发光特性.在透射电子显微镜(TEM)下可以发现量子阱的宽度不一致,电致发光谱(EL)发现了位于2.45eV的绿光发光峰和2.81eV处的蓝光发光峰.随着电流密度增加,双峰的峰位没有移动,直到注入电流密度达到2×104 mA/cm2时,绿光发光峰发生蓝移,而蓝光发光峰没有变化.单色的阴极荧光谱(CL)发现绿光发射对应的发光区包括絮状区域和发光点,而蓝光发射对应的发光区仅包含絮状区域.通过以上的结果,我们认为蓝光发射基本上源于InGaN量子阱发光,而绿光发射则起源于量子阱和量子点的发光. 相似文献

The design, fabrication, and performance characteristics of a back-surface distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) enhanced InGaN/GaN
light-emitting diode (LED) are described. A wide reflectance bandwidth in the blue and green wavelength regions is obtained
using a double quarter-wave stack design composed of TiO2 and SiO2 layers. More than 65% enhancement in extracted light intensity is demonstrated for a blue LED measured at the chip level.
Similar improvement in green LED performance is discussed and achieved through simulation. Possible applications of back-surface
DBR-enhanced LEDs include surface-mount packages with significantly reduced vertical profiles, resonant cavity LEDs, and superluminescent
diodes. 相似文献

Crack-free InGaN/GaN quantum-well (QW) light-emitting diode (LED) structures were grown on a patterned Si substrate. Spatially
resolved cathodoluminescence was studied on these LED wafers. Cathodoluminescence (CL) emission spectra at room temperature
and low temperature (82 K) were measured. A main LED peak (∼2.7 eV) and an additional peak (∼3.1 eV) in the emission spectra
at 82 K were observed. Using CL spectra mapping measurements on a cross section of the sample, it can be clearly seen that
the ∼3.1 eV emission comes from the interfacial layer between the p-AlGaN and the QWs. This observation was further verified by comparing spectra of specific points on the cross section by
line scanning. The origin of such emission is discussed. Cathodoluminescence images, emission spectra, and x-ray energy dispersion
spectra (EDS) showed that the In composition at a specific corner of the mesa was higher than that in the rest of the mesa.
Such macroscopic inhomogeneity might be caused by gas dynamics on the patterned substrate. 相似文献

High-quality InGaN/GaN multiple-quantum well (MQW) light-emitting diode (LED) structures were prepared by a temperature-ramping
method during metal-organic chemical-vapor deposition (MOCVD) growth. Two photoluminescence (PL) peaks, one originating from
well-sensitive emission and one originating from an InGaN quasi-wetting layer on the GaN-barrier surface, were observed at
room temperature (RT). The observation of high-order double-crystal x-ray diffraction (DCXRD) satellite peaks indicates that
the interfaces between InGaN-well layers and GaN-barrier layers were not degraded as we increased the growth temperature of
the GaN-barrier layers. With a 20-mA and 160-mA current injection, it was found that the output power could reach 2.2 mW and
8.9 mW, respectively. Furthermore, it was found that the reliability of the fabricated green LEDs prepared by temperature
ramping was also reasonably good. 相似文献

InGaN red light emitting diode (LED) is one of the crucial bottlenecks that must be broken through to realize high-resolution full-color mini/micro-LED displays. The efficiency of InGaN LEDs drops rapidly as the emission spectra go from blue/green to red range due to the poor quality of high-indium-content InGaN materials. Here, high-performance InGaN red LEDs on sapphire grown by metal–organic chemical vapor deposition through strain modulation are reported. A composite buffer layer is proposed to increase the surface lattice constant of GaN and hence successfully enhances the indium incorporation efficiency of the following InGaN active layers. Consequently, a high-efficiency InGaN red mini-LED chip (mesa area: 100 × 200 µm2) with a peak wavelength of 629 nm and an external quantum efficiency of 7.4% is realized. Finally, a full-color nitride mini-LED display panel with 74.1% coverage of Rec.2020 color gamut by using the InGaN red mini-LED chips is fabricated. The study signifies the great potentials of full-nitrides high-resolution full-color mini/micro-LED displays. 相似文献

The distribution of electroluminescence (EL) intensity over the area and in the course of time before and after the optical degradation of blue InGaN/GaN LEDs is studied. Current-voltage characteristics have been recorded. It is found that the initially bright luminescence near the region of metallization of the p-contact turns weak after the degradation of an LED. The time delay of ~20–40 ns is observed in the distribution of EL intensity over the area of LEDs after their degradation. We suppose that a rise in the excess current after degradation is due to the density increasing of the InGaN/GaN interface states and the formation of an electrical dipole, which lowers the potential barriers in p-GaN and n-GaN layers. The corresponding increase of capacitance leads to a time delay in the spreading of the injection current and in the distribution of the emission brightness over the area. The lateral nonuniformity of the carrier injection into the quantum, well before and after optical degradation, is attributed to diffusion and electromigration of hydrogen, induced by mechanical stress. The metallization of the p-contact may be the source of mechanical stress. 相似文献

The direction of the piezoelectric field in InGaN/GaN multiple quantum-well (MQW) structures grown by metal-organic vapor
deposition (MOCVD) was determined using excitation-power-density variable photoluminescence (PL). By comparing the excitation-power-density
dependence of the shift of the PL peak and the change of the full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) of the peak from an InGaN/GaN
MQW structure and an InGaN MQW-based light-emitting diode (LED), the piezoelectric field in the InGaN/GaN MQW structures was
unambiguously determined to be pointing toward the substrate. This result helps to identify the surface polarity of the LED
wafer as Ga-faced. 相似文献

The advantages of the p-AIInGaN/GaN superlattices' (SLs) structure as an electron blocking layer (EBL) for InGaN blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs) were studied by experiment and APSYS simulation. Elec- troluminescence (EL) measurement results show that the LEDs with the p-AllnGaN/GaN SLs' structure EBL ex- hibited better optical performance compared with the conventional A1GaN EBL due to the enhancement of hole concentration and hole carrier transport efficiency, and the confinement of electrons' overflow between multiple quantum-wells (MQWs) and EBL. 相似文献

We have investigated the effects of nonradiative recombination centers (NRCs) on the device performance of InGaN/GaN multi-quantum-well (MQW) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) inserting low-temperature n-GaN (LT-GaN) underlying layers. Inserting an LT-GaN underlying layer prior to growing the MQWs is a successful means of separating the induced nonradiative recombination centers because a growth interrupt interface exists between the n-GaN template and the InGaN QW. We found that by introducing this technique would improve the external quantum efficiency of the as-grown conventional LEDs. The electroluminescence relative intensity of a blue LED incorporating a 70-nm-thick LT-GaN was 20.6% higher (at 20 mA current injection) than that of the corresponding as-grown blue LED in the best case. 相似文献

In this report, the influence of magnesium doping on the characteristics of InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells (MQWs) was investigated
by means of atomic force microscopy (AFM), photoluminescence (PL), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Five-period InGaN/GaN MQWs
with different magnesium doping levels were grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The AFM measurements indicated
that magnesium doping led to a smoother surface morphology. The V-defect density was observed to decrease with increasing
magnesium doping concentration from ∼109 cm−2 (no doping) to ∼106 cm−2 (Cp2Mg: 0.04 sccm) and further to 0 (Cp2 Mg: 0.2 sccm). The PL measurements showed that magnesium doping resulted in stronger emission, which can be attributed to
the screening of the polarization-induced band bending. XRD revealed that magnesium doping had no measurable effect on the
indium composition and growth rate of the MQWs. These results suggest that magnesium doping in MQWs might improve the optical
properties of GaN photonic devices. 相似文献
