Different Levels

ABSTRACTInGaN/GaN/AlGaN multiple quantum well light emitting diodes (MWQ LED's) with different levels of p-doping in the contact layer have been characterized using surface photovoltage spectroscopy (SPS). Due to the high sensitivity of the SPS technique to the electric field, there is a strong correlation between the p-doping level in the contact layer and the magnitude of the SPS signal originating from the MQW region. The experimental results are confirmed by a numerical simulation.

Absract:Temperature-dependent electroluminescence (EL) of InGaN/GaN multiple-quantum-well light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with peak emission energies ranging from 2.3 eV (green) to 3.3 eV (UV) has been studied over a wide temperature range (5-300 K). As the temperature is decreased from 300 K to 150 K, the EL intensity increases in all devices due to reduced nonradiative recombination and improved carrier confinement. However, LED operation at lower temperatures (150-5 K) is a strong function of In ratio in the active layer. For the green LEDs, emission intensity increases monotonically in the whole temperature range, while for the blue and UV LEDs, a remarkable decrease of the light output was observed, accompanied by a large redshift of the peak energy. The discrepancy can be attributed to various amounts of localization states caused by In composition fluctuation in the QW active regions. Based on a rate equation analysis, we find that the densities of the localized states in the green LEDs are more than two orders of magnitude higher than that in the UV LED. The large number of localized states in the green LEDs are crucial to maintain high-efficiency carrier capture at low temperatures.
