Effect of Auger Electron–hole Asymmetry on Efficiency Droop in InGaN QW LEDs

Indium gallium nitride (InGaN)-based blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are the backbone of the solid-state lighting (SSL), but their luminous efficiency peaks under low current densities (<35A/cm2) and rolls off under high current injection levels (efficiency droop), requiring a design tradeoff between light output power, efficiency and cost. It is widely accepted that Auger recombination is the main cause for the experimentally observed large (~50%) efficiency droop in III–nitride LEDs. Yet there is no clear understanding of the origin of the magnitude of Au...

Cranking Up The Growth Temperature Of Red InGaN LEDs

Intentional decomposition of an InGaN layer provides a foundation for high-temperature growth of red-emitting quantum wells Researchers at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), claim to have broken new ground by increasing the temperature employed for the growth of red-emitting InGaN LEDs. This breakthrough comes from introducing a relaxed InGaN buffer. The approach by the West-coast team differs from the norm, which is to grow re-emitting InGaN-based LEDs at a considerably lower temperatures than their green and blue siblings. While growt...
