Temperature and current dependent capture of injected carriers in InGaN single-quantum-well light-emitting diodes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Temperature and injection current dependence of electroluminescence (EL) spectral intensity of the super-bright InGaN single quantum well (SQW) light emitting diodes (LED’s) has been carefully investigated over a wide temperature range (T = 15-300 K) and as a function of injection current level (0.1-10 mA). It is found that, when T is decreased slightly to 140 K, the EL intensity efficiently increases due to reduced non-raiative recombination processes. However, further decrease of T below 100 K, it drastically decreases due to the reduced carrier capturing by the localized recombination centers and shows a clear trend of saturation, accompanying decreases of the EL differential efficiency. These results are analyzed within a context of rate equation model assuming a finite number of radiative recombination centers. ----------------------------------1) Corresponding author, Phone: +81-93-8843221, Fax: +81-93-8840879, e-mail:[email protected]

We report on the thermal performance of the electroluminescence of 12-nm-thick single-quantum-well (SQW) InGaN blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs) grown on the semipolar (20 2 1) plane. At a current density 100A/cm, the external quantum efficiency (EQE) decreased by 9.7% when the temperature was increased from 20 to 100 C. Hot/cold factors were more than 0.9 at current densities greater than 20A/...
