The upper waveguide(UWG) has direct influences on the optical and electrical characteristics of the violet laser diode(LD) by changing the optical field distribution or barrier of the electron blocking layer(EBL). In this study, a series of In GaN-based violet LDs with different UWGs are investigated systematically with LASTIP software. It is found that the output light power(OLP) under an injecting current of 120 mA or the threshold current(Ith) is deteriorated when the UWG is u-In_(0.02)Ga_(0.98)N/GaN or u-In_(0.02)Ga_(0.98)N/Al_xGa_(1-x)N(0 ≤ x ≤ 0.1), which should be attributed to small optical confinement factor(OCF) or severe electron leakage. Therefore, a new violet LD structure with u-In_(0.02)Ga_(0.98)N/GaN/Al_(0.05)Ga_(0.95)N multiple layer UWG is proposed to reduce the optical loss and increase the barrier of EBL. Finally,the output light power under an injecting current of 120 mA is improved to 176.4 mW. 相似文献

The effect of the indium (In) composition of InxGa1−xN (GaN) waveguide layers on the performance of deep violet In0.082Ga0.918N/GaN double quantum well (DQW) laser diodes (LDs) emitting at 390 nm output emission wavelength has been numerically investigated. Simulation results indicated that by increasing In composition of the InxGa1−xN waveguide layers, the threshold current decreases, the slope efficiency, and differential quantum efficiency (DQE) increase, whereas the output power decreases. The increase in the In composition of the InGaN waveguide layers increases the refractive index and consequently increases the optical confinement factor (OCF) which result in the increase in the slope efficiency and DQE and the decrease in the threshold current. The decreasing movement of electron and hole carriers from the bulk waveguide layers to the active regions also causes to decrease the output power. A new LD structure with InGaN/GaN superlattice (SL) waveguide layers has been proposed to exploit the increased OCF of InGaN waveguide structures, and the enhanced electron and hole mobilities and the tunneling effect of the periodic structure of the SL structures. The results also showed that the use of InGaN/GaN SL waveguide structures effectively improves the output power, slope efficiency and DQE and decreases the threshold current of the LD compared with (In)GaN bulk waveguide structure. 相似文献

GaN基蓝绿光LED电应力老化分析 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
对InGaN/GaN多量子阱蓝光和绿光LED进行了室温20,40,60 mA加速电流下的电应力老化研究,发现蓝光与绿光样品经过60 mA电流老化424 h后,其电学性能表现出一定的共性与差异性:在小测量电流下,绿光样品的光衰减幅度较蓝光样品大~9%;而在较大测量电流 (20 mA)下,两者的光衰减幅度基本相同 (18%)。同时,蓝绿光样品的正向电学性能随老化时间的变化幅度基本一致,反映出它们具有相似的退化机制,绿光样品老化后增多的缺陷大部分体现为简单的漏电行为,而并非贡献于非辐射复合中心。在此基础上对GaN基外延结构进行了优化,优化后的LED长期老化的光衰减幅度较参考样品降低了3%。 相似文献

设计并制备了12 V 的GaN基绿光高压发光二极管(LED),并对其进行了变电流测试。研究了绿光高压LED的正向电压、峰值波长、光功率以及光效等重要参数随注入电流的变化关系,电流变化范围为3~50 mA,测试温度为25 ℃。实验结果表明:电流对绿光高压LED的光电特性有很大影响。在驱动电流为20 mA时,对应电压为14 V。随着注入电流的增大,峰值波长蓝移了2 nm。随着电流的增大,光功率近似于线性增加。在注入电流从3 mA增大到20 mA的过程中,光效降低了约61%;在注入电流从20 mA增大到50 mA的过程中,光效降低了约39%。这说明高压LED在大电流驱动时,光效降低的幅度比较缓慢。上述结果对 GaN基绿光高压 LED 的改进优化具有一定的参考价值。 相似文献

The performance characteristics of deep violet In0.082Ga0.918N/GaN double quantum well (DQW) laser diodes (LDs) with different electron blocking layer (EBL) including a ternary AlGaN bulk EBL, a quaternary AlInGaN bulk EBL and ternary AlGaN multi quantum barrier (MQB) EBL has been numerically investigated. Inspired by the abovementioned structures, a new LD structure with a quaternary AlInGaN MQB EBL has been proposed to improve the performance characteristics of the deep violet InGaN DQW LDs. Simulation results indicated that the LD structure with the quaternary AlInGaN MQB EBL present the highest output power, slope efficiency and differential quantum efficiency (DQE) and lowest threshold current compared with the above mentioned structures. They also indicated that choosing an appropriate aluminum (Al) and indium (In) composition in the quaternary AlInGaN MQB layers could control both piezoelectric and spontaneous polarizations. It will decrease the electron overflow from the active region to p-side and increased the contribution of electron and hole carriers to the radiative recombination effectively. Enhancing radiative recombination in the well using the quaternary AlInGaN MQB EBL also increased the optical output power and optical intensity. 相似文献

InGaN-based light-emitting diodes with graded indium composition p-type InGaN hole reservoir layer (HRL) are numerically investigated using the APSYS simulation software. It is found that by gradient increasing indium composition in growth direction of the p-InGaN HRL can improve light output power, lower current leakage and efficiency droop. Based on numerical simulation and analysis, these improvements on the electrical and optical characteristics are attributed mainly to tailoring energy band in p–n junction vicinal region, and finally enhanced the hole injection efficiency and electron blocking efficiency. 相似文献

The effects of quantum confined stark effect (QCSE) and quantum well (QW) thickness on the optical properties of violet InGaN laser diodes (LDs) have numerically been investigated. The simulation results indicated that the QCSE greatly effects the optical properties of LDs, where QCSE relates to the QW thickness and it increases when the QW thickness is wider which leads to deteriorating of the optical proprieties of the violet InGaN LD. The polarization in the active region of the InGaN LD has been estimated by the blue shift of the wavelength and it is found that the blue shift of the wavelength depends on the QW thickness. The major simulation result has shown that the best properties of violet InGaN LD can be obtained with smaller QW thickness, where more carriers can be restricted, stayed and overlapped inside the QW which leads to a larger stimulated recombination rate and optical material gain which in turn increase the output power of the LD; while decreasing the threshold current of the LD. 相似文献

The photoluminescence(PL) properties of blue multiple InGaN/GaN quantum well(BMQW) and green multiple InGaN/GaN quantum well(GMQW) formed on a single sapphire substrate are investigated. The results indicate that the peak energy of GMQW-related emission(PG) exhibits more significant "S-shaped" dependence on temperature than that of BMQW-related emission(PB), and the excitation power-dependent carrier-scattering effect is observed only in the PG emission; the excitation power-dependent total blue-shift(narrowing) of peak position(line-width) for the PGemission is more significant than that for the PBemission; the GMQW shows a lower internal quantum efficiency than the BMQW. All of these results can be attributed to the fact that the GMQW has higher indium content than the BMQW due to its lower growth temperature and late growth, and the higher indium content in the GMQW induces a more significant compositional fluctuation, a stronger quantum confined Stark effect, and more non-radiative centers. 相似文献

This paper reports that a dual-wavelength white light-emitting diode is fabricated by using a metal-organic chemical vapor deposition method. Through a 200-hours’ current stress, the reverse leakage current of this light-emitting diode increases with the aging time, but the optical properties remained unchanged despite the enhanced reverse leakage current. Transmission electron microscopy and cathodeluminescence images show that indium atoms were assembled in and around V-shape pits with various compositions, which can be ascribed to the emitted white light. Evolution of cathodeluminescence intensities under electron irradiation is also performed. Combining cathodeluminescence intensi- ties under electron irradiation and above results, the increase of leakage channels and crystalline quality degradation are realized. Although leakage channels increase with aging, potential fluctuation caused by indium aggregation can effectively avoid the impact of leakage channels. Indium aggregation can be attributed to the mechanism of preventing optical degradation in phosphor-free white light-emitting diode. 相似文献

In order to improve the characteristics of the general broad-waveguide 808-nm semiconductor laser diode (LD), we design a new type quantum well LD with an asymmetric cladding structure. The structure is grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). For the devices with 100-ttm-wide stripe and 1000-/zm-long cavity under continuous-wave (CW) operation condition, the typical threshold current is 190 mA, the slope efficiency is 1.31 W/A, the wall-plug efficiency reaches 63%, and the maximum output power reaches higher than 7 W. And the internal absorption value decreases to 1.5 cm^-1. 相似文献

The effects of GaN/InGaN asymmetric lower waveguide (LWG) layers on photoelectrical properties of InGaN multiple quantum well laser diodes (LDs) with an emission wavelength of around 416 nm are theoretically investigated by tuning the thickness and the indium content of InGaN insertion layer (InGaN-IL) between the GaN lower waveguide layer and the quantum wells, which is achieved with the Crosslight Device Simulation Software (PIC3D, Crosslight Software Inc.). The optimal thickness and the indium content of the InGaN-IL in lower waveguide layers are found to be 300 nm and 4%, respectively. The thickness of InGaN-IL predominantly affects the output power and the optical field distribution in comparison with the indium content, and the highest output power is achieved to be 1.25 times that of the reference structure (symmetric GaN waveguide), which is attributed to the reduced optical absorption loss as well as the concentrated optical field nearby quantum wells. Furthermore, when the thickness and indium content of InGaN-IL both reach a higher level, the performance of asymmetric quantum wells LDs will be weakened rapidly due to the obvious decrease of optical confinement factor (OCF) related to the concentrated optical field in the lower waveguide. 相似文献

The authors succeed in fabricating a blue-emitting structure with two series of InGaN/GaN quantum wells, which are different in layer thickness and indium content. The structural and optical properties of the sample were investigated. The upper MQWs works as the main light emitting source area, while the lower MQWs with higher indium content serves as strain releaser. According to the high resolution X-ray diffraction and photoluminescence result, the lower MQWs having the strain released, the upper MQWs succeed in blue emitting with low level indium incorporation, which leads to less piezo-polarization electric field and good crystal quality and high light emitting 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

The effect of the laser ridge width on the performance characteristics of deep violet In0.082Ga0.918N/GaN double quantum well (DQW) laser diodes (LDs) has been numerically investigated. Simulation results indicated that threshold current of LDs is decreased and slope efficiency and differential quantum efficiency (DQE) are increased by decreasing ridge width, whereas output power is decreased. The results also showed that a decrease of more than 1 μm in the ridge width reduces the threshold current, whereas the slope efficiency, output power, and DQE are decreased. A new DQW LD structure with a strip active region has been proposed to obtain a lower current threshold and higher output power, slope efficiency, and DQE. The results showed the InGaN DQW LD with a strip DQW active region has the highest output power, slope efficiency, and DQE; it also has a lower threshold current compared with that of the original LD. The comparative study conducted for the LDs with output emission wavelengths of 390, 414 and 436 nm has also confirmed the enhancement in LD performance using the strip DQW active region structure. 相似文献

The performance of InGaN blue light-emitting diodes(LEDs) with different kinds of electron-blocking layers is investigated numerically.We compare the simulated emission spectra,electron and hole concentrations,energy band diagrams,electrostatic fields,and internal quantum efficiencies of the LEDs.The LED using AlGaN with gradually increasing Al content from 0% to 20% as the electron-blocking layer(EBL) has a strong spectrum intensity,mitigates efficiency droop,and possesses higher output power compared with the LEDs with the other three types of EBLs.These advantages could be because of the lower electron leakage current and more effective hole injection.The optical performance of the specifically designed LED is also improved in the case of large injection current. 相似文献

The effect of quantum well number on the quantum efficiency and temperature characteristics of In- GaN/GaN laser diodes (LDs) is determined and investigated. The 3-nm-thick In0.13Ca0.87N wells and two 6-am-thick GaN barriers are selected as an active region for Fabry-Perot (FP) cavity waveguide edge emitting LD. The internal quantum efficiency and internal optical loss coefficient are extracted through the simulation software for single, double, and triple InGaN/GaN quantum wells. The effects of device temperature on the laser threshold current, external differential quantum efficiency (DQE), and output wavelength are also investigated. The external quantum efficiency and characteristic temperature are improved significantly when the quantum well number is two. It is indicated that the laser structures with many quantum wells will suffer from the inhomogeneity of the carrier density within the quantum well itself which affects the LD performance. 相似文献
