Optical Properties of GaN-Based Green Light-Emitting Diodes Influenced by Low-Temperature p-GaN Layer
GaN-based green light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with different thicknesses of the low-temperature (LT) p-GaN layer between the last GaN barriers and p-AlGaN electron blocking layer were characterized by photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) spectroscopic methods in the temperature range o...

| Résumé: | GaN-based green light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with different thicknesses of the low-temperature (LT) p-GaN layer between the last GaN barriers and p-AlGaN electron blocking layer were characterized by photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) spectroscopic methods in the temperature range of 6–300 K and injection current range of 0.01–350 mA. Based on the results, we suggest that a 20 nm-thick LT p-GaN layer can effectively prevent indium (In) re-evaporation, improve the quantum-confined Stark effect in the last quantum well (QW) of the active region, and finally reduce the efficiency droop by about 7%. |
