采用LASTIP软件研究了InGaN/GaN(In组分为15%)量子阱垒层和阱层厚度对GaN基蓝紫光激光器性能的影响及机理. 模拟计算结果表明, 当阱层太薄或太厚时, GaN基激光器的阈值电流增加、输出功率下降, 最优的阱层厚度为4.0 nm左右; 当阱层厚度太薄时, 载流子很容易泄漏, 而当阱层厚度太厚时, 极化效应导致发光效率降低, 研究还发现, 与垒层厚度为7 nm 相比, 垒层厚度为15 nm时激光器的阈值电流更低、输出功率更高, 因此适当地增加垒层厚度能显著抑制载流子泄漏, 从而改善激光器性能. 相似文献

The structural and optical properties of InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells(MQWs) with different barrier thicknesses are studied by means of high resolution X-ray diffraction(HRXRD), a cross-sectional transmission electron microscope(TEM), and temperature-dependent photoluminescence(PL) measurements. HRXRD and cross-sectional TEM measurements show that the interfaces between wells and barriers are abrupt and the entire MQW region has good periodicity for all three samples. As the barrier thickness is increased, the temperature of the turning point from blueshift to redshift of the S-shaped temperature-dependent PL peak energy increases monotonously, which indicates that the localization potentials due to In-rich clusters is deeper. From the Arrhenius plot of the normalized integrated PL intensity, it is found that there are two kinds of nonradiative recombination processes accounting for the thermal quenching of photoluminescence,and the corresponding activation energy(or the localization potential) increases with the increase of the barrier thickness.The dependence on barrier thickness is attributed to the redistribution of In-rich clusters during the growth of barrier layers,i.e., clusters with lower In contents aggregate into clusters with higher In contents. 相似文献

Four blue-violet light emitting InGaN/GaN multiple quantum well(MQW) structures with different well widths are grown by metal–organic chemical vapor deposition. The carrier localization effect in these samples is investigated mainly by temperature-dependent photoluminescence measurements. It is found that the localization effect is enhanced as the well width increases from 1.8 nm to 3.6 nm in our experiments. The temperature induced PL peak blueshift and linewidth variation increase with increasing well width, implying that a greater amplitude of potential fluctuation as well as more localization states exist in wider wells. In addition, it is noted that the broadening of the PL spectra always occurs mainly on the low-energy side of the PL spectra due to the temperature-induced band-gap shrinkage, while in the case of the widest well, a large extension of the spectral curve also occurs in the high energy sides due to the existence of more shallow localized centers. 相似文献

Strain-compensated InGaN quantum well (QW) active region employing tensile AlGaN barrier is analyzed. Its spectral stability and efficiency droop for dual-blue light-emitting diode (LED) are improved compared with those of the conventional InGaN/GaN QW dual-blue LED based on stacking structure of two In0.18Ga0.82N/GaN QWs and two In0.12Ga0.88N/GaN QWs on the same sapphire substrate. It is found that the optimal performance is achieved when the Al composition of strain-compensated AlGaN layer is 0.12 in blue QW and 0.21 in blue-violet QW. The improvement performance can be attributed to the strain-compensated InGaN-AlGaN/GaN QW that can provide a better carrier confinement and effectively reduce leakage current. 相似文献

We report on the interface characterization of InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells with indium aggregation grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The interface related microstructure was analyzed by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, high-resolution X-ray diffraction and high angle annular dark field. Luminescence measurements were carried out by micro-photoluminescence measurement. In addition, quantitative determination of the indium concentration inside the ultra-small dots was attempted. We demonstrate that the quantum dots are coherent and the interfaces remain sharp. The In content inside ∼2 nm InGaN dots is about 65% determined by spectrum imaging in energy-filtered transmission electron microscopy combined with multiple linear least squares fitting, which is slighter higher than the value obtained either from HRTEM or theoretical calculations. This discrepancy is briefly discussed but demands further studies for complete understanding. 相似文献

采用金属有机化学气相沉积(MOCVD)技术以蓝宝石为衬底在n型GaN单晶层上生长了InGaN/GaN多量子阱结构外延薄膜,利用高分辨X射线衍射(HRXRD),卢瑟福背散射/沟道(RBS/channeling),以及光致发光(PL)技术对InGaN/GaN多量子阱结构薄膜分别进行了平均晶格常数计算、In原子替位率计算和In组分的定量分析.研究表明:InGaN/GaN多量子阱的水平和垂直方向平均晶格常数分别为aepi=0.3195nm,cepi=0.5198nm,In原子的替位率为99.3%,利用HRXRD和RBS/channeling两种分析技术计算In的组分分别是0.023和0.026,并与样品生长时设定的预期目标相符合,验证了两种实验方法的准确性;而用室温条件下的光致发光谱(PL)来计算InGaN/GaN多量子阱中In的组分是与HRXRD和RBS/channeling的实验结果相差很大,说明用PL测试In组分的方法是不适宜的.

Epitaxial evolution of buried cracks in a strain-controlled AlN/GaN superlattice interlayer(IL) grown on GaN template, resulting in crack-free AlGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells(MQW), was investigated. The processes of filling the buried cracks include crack formation in the IL, coalescence from both side walls of the crack, build-up of an MQW-layer hump above the cracks, lateral expansion and merging with the surrounding MQW, and two-dimensional step flow growth.It was confirmed that the filling content in the buried cracks is pure GaN, originating from the deposition of the GaN thin layer directly after the IL. Migration of Ga adatoms into the cracks plays a key role in the filling the buried cracks. 相似文献

Room-temperature (RT) continuous-wave (CW) operation of the 405-nm ridge-waveguide (RW) InGaN/GaN quantum-well diode lasers
equipped with the n-type GaN substrate and two contacts on both sides of the structure has been investigated with the aid
of the comprehensive self-consistent simulation model. As expected, the mounting configuration (p-side up or down) has been
found to have a crucial impact on the diode laser performance. For the RT CW threshold operation of the otherwise identical
diode laser, the p-side up RW laser exhibits as high as nearly 68°C maximal active-region temperature increase whereas an
analogous increase for the p-side down laser was equal to only 24°C. Our simulation reveals that the lowest room-temperature
lasing threshold may be expected for relatively narrow and deep ridges. For the structure under consideration, the lowest
threshold current density of 5.75 kA/cm2 has been determined for the 2.2-μm ridge width and the 400-nm etching depth. Then, the active-region temperature increase
was as low as only 24 K over RT. For wider 5-μm ridge, this increase is twice higher. An impact of etching depth is more essential
for narrower ridges. Quite high values (between 120 and 140 K) of the characteristic parameter T0 convince very good thermal properties of the above laser. 相似文献

Electron Raman scattering (ERS) in wurtzite InxGaN1−x/GaN coupled quantum wells (CQWs) is investigated by effective-mass approximation and second-perturbation approach, including a strong built-in electric field (BEF) effect due to the piezoelectricity and spontaneous polarization. The dependence of differential cross-section (DCS) on structural parameters of CQWs is studied. Our results show that the strong BEF gives rise to a remarkable reduction of the DCS, which is around three orders smaller than that of the CQWs without BEF. With the presence of the BEF, the emitted photon energy decreases about 10 times as a consequence of quantum-confined Stark effect. 相似文献

利用金属有机物化学气相淀积技术在蓝宝石衬底上生长InGaN/GaN多量子阱结构.对多量子阱垒层掺In和非掺In进行了比较研究,结果表明,垒掺In 的样品界面质量变差,但明显增加了光致发光谱的峰值强度和积分强度,带边峰与黄光峰强度之比增大,降低了表面粗糙度.利用这两种结构制备了相应的发光二极管(LED)样品.通过电荧光测量可知,垒掺In的LED比非掺In的LED有较高的发光强度和相对均匀的波长,这主要是由于垒掺In后降低了阱与垒之间晶格失配的应力,从而降低了极化电场,提高了辐射复合效率.

Electroluminescence (EL) spectra of blue InGaN/GaN multiple-quantum-well light-emitting diode (LED) have been investigated over a wide range of injection current (0.001–200 mA) and at various temperatures (6–300 K). Surprisingly, with increasing the injection current the EL peak energy shows an initial blueshift accompanied by a broadening of the EL linewidth at low temperatures (below 30 K). This trend differs from the usual photoluminescence (PL) measurement results, which have shown that with increasing the optical excitation power the PL peak energy gave an initial blueshift accompanied by a narrowing of the PL linewidth at low temperatures. The anomalous current behavior of the EL spectra may be attributed to electron leakage results in the failure of Coulomb screening effect and the relative enhancement of the low-energetic localized state filling at low temperatures and low currents. The electron leakage for the LED is further confirmed by both the current dependence of the EL intensity and the temperature dependence of the EL efficiency. 相似文献

In this study, the influence of multiple interruptions with trimethylindium(TMIn)-treatment in InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells(MQWs) on green light-emitting diode(LED) is investigated. A comparison of conventional LEDs with the one fabricated with our method shows that the latter has better optical properties. Photoluminescence(PL) full-width at half maximum(FWHM) is reduced, light output power is much higher and the blue shift of electroluminescence(EL) dominant wavelength becomes smaller with current increasing. These improvements should be attributed to the reduced interface roughness of MQW and more uniformity of indium distribution in MQWs by the interruptions with TMIn-treatment. 相似文献

GaN/In_xGa_(1-x)N型最后一个量子势垒结构能有效提高发光二极管(LED)器件内量子效率,缓解LED效率随输入电流增大而衰减的问题.本文综述了该结构及其结构变化——In组分梯度递增以及渐变、GaN/In_xGa_(1-x)N界面极化率改变等对改善LED器件性能的影响及优势,归纳总结了不同结构的GaN/In_xGa_(1-x)N型最后一个量子垒的工作机理,阐明极化反转是该结构提高LED性能的根本原因.在综述该结构发展的基础之上,通过APSYS仿真计算,进一步探索和深入分析了该结构中In_xGa_(1-x)N层的In组分及其厚度变化对LED内量子效率的影响.结果表明:In组分的增加有助于在GaN/In_xGa_(1-x)N界面产生更多的极化负电荷,增加GaN以及电子阻挡层处导带势垒高度,减少电子泄漏,从而提高LED的内量子效率;但GaN/In_xGa_(1-x)N型最后一个量子势垒中In_xGa_(1-x)N及GaN层厚度的变化由于会同时引起势垒高度和隧穿效应的改变,因而In_xGa_(1-x)N和GaN层的厚度存在一个最佳比值以实现最大化的减小漏电子,提高内量子效率. 相似文献

This paper studies the exciton-longitudinal-optical-phonon coupling in InGaN/GaN single quantum wells with various cap layer thicknesses by low temperature photoluminescence (PL) measurements.With increasing cap layer thickness,the PL peak energy shifts to lower energy and the coupling strength between the exciton and longitudinal-optical (LO) phonon,described by Huang-Rhys factor,increases remarkably due to an enhancement of the internal electric field.With increasing excitation intensity,the zero-phonon peak shows a blueshift and the Huang-Rhys factor decreases.These results reveal that there is a large built-in electric field in the well layer and the exciton-LO-phonon coupling is strongly affected by the thickness of the cap layer. 相似文献

InGaN/GaN multiple quantum well (MQW) solar cells with stepped-thickness quantum wells (SQW) are designed and grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. The stepped-thickness quantum wells structure, in which the well thickness becomes smaller and smaller along the growth direction, reveals better crystalline quality and better spectral overlap with the solar spectrum. Consequently, the short-circuit current density (Jsc) and conversion efficiency of the solar cell are enhanced by 27.12% and 56.41% compared with the conventional structure under illumination of AM1.5G (100 mW/cm2). In addition, approaches to further promote the performance of InGaN/GaN multiple quantum well solar cells are discussed and presented. 相似文献
