AbstractThis paper reports improved optical characteristics of InGaN-based light-emitting-diode (LED) grown on Si(111) substrate by the insertion of an Al0.06Ga0.94N/GaN strained-layer-superlattices (SLS) cladding layer after AlN/GaN multilayer (ML) growth, under the multi-quantum-well (MQW) active layer. The insertion of underlying Al0.06Ga0.94N/GaN SLS cladding layer has shown to improve epitaxial layer quality in x-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, reduce wavelength peak fluctuations in photoluminescence (PL) surface mapping, and improve optical and electrical characteristics of the LED sample. A 34% increase of light intensity at 50 mA current injection and a narrower wavelength peak have been achieved by the insertion of Al0.06Ga0.94N/GaN SLS cladding layer. LED with underlying Al0.06Ga0.94N/GaN also shows superior current-voltage (I-V) characteristics with operation voltage of 3.2 V at 20 mA and series resistance of 16 Ω.

ABSTRACTThe emission from a light emitting diode (LED) that is emitted under the metal electrode cannot escape into free space. A current blocking layer (CBL) is used to address this issue by forcing the current to flow laterally under the electrode reducing the emission absorbed and hence increasing the overall efficiency of the LED. In this paper a new method to fabricate Schottky and isolating CBLs in GaN LED are investigated. Optical and electrical measurements of these vertical LEDs with and without CBL show different light output powers at identical current densities. The results of this study indicate that CBLs could also be used to suppress the efficiency droop effect for GaN LEDs.
