Horizontally assembled green InGaN nanorod LEDs: scalable polarized surface emitting LEDs using electric-field assisted assembly.

ABSTRACT: In this study, we report the concerted fabrication process, which is easy to transform the size of active emitting area and produce polarized surface light, using the electric-field-assisted assembly for horizontally assembled many tiny nanorod LEDs between two metal electrodes. We fabricate the millions of individually separated 1D nanorod LEDs from 2D nanorod arrays using nanosphere lithography, etching and cutting process of InGaN/GaN LED structure on a flat sapphire substrate. The horizontally assembled InGaN-based nanorods LED device shows bright (~2,130 cd/m(2)) and uniform polarized (polarization ratio, ρ = ~0.61) green emissions from large area (0.7 cm × 0.6 cm) planar surface. The realization of a horizontally assembled nanorod LED device can prove the concept of an innovative idea to fabricate formable and scalable polarized surface LED lighting.

Flower-Like Internal Emission Distribution of LEDs with Monolithic Integration of InGaN-based Quantum Wells Emitting Narrow Blue, Green, and Red Spectra.

Project description:We report a phosphor-free white light-emitting diodes (LED) realized by the monolithic integration of In0.18Ga0.82N/GaN (438?nm, blue), In0.26Ga0.74N/GaN (513?nm, green), and In0.45Ga0.55N/In0.13Ga0.87N (602?nm, red) quantum wells (QWs) as an active medium. The QWs corresponding to blue and green light were grown using a conventional growth mode. For the red spectral emission, five-stacked In0.45Ga0.55N/In0.13Ga0.87N QWs were realized by the so-called Ga-flow-interruption (Ga-FI) technique, wherein the Ga supply was periodically interrupted during the deposition of In0.3Ga0.7N to form an In0.45Ga0.55N well. The vertical and lateral distributions of the three different light emissions were investigated by fluorescence microscope (FM) images. The FM image measured at a focal point in the middle of the n-GaN cladding layer for the red-emitting LED shows that light emissions with flower-like patterns with six petals are periodically observed. The chromaticity coordinates of the electroluminescence spectrum for the white LEDs at an injection current of 80?mA are measured to be (0.316, 0.312), which is close to ideal white light. In contrast with phosphor-free white-light-emitting devices based on nanostructures, our white light device exhibits a mixture of three independent wavelengths by monolithically grown InGaN-based QWs, thus demonstrating a more facile technique to obtain white LEDs.

A Direct Epitaxial Approach To Achieving Ultrasmall and Ultrabright InGaN Micro Light-Emitting Diodes (?LEDs).

Project description:A direct epitaxial approach to achieving ultrasmall and ultrabright InGaN micro light-emitting diodes (?LEDs) has been developed, leading to the demonstration of ultrasmall, ultraefficient, and ultracompact green ?LEDs with a dimension of 3.6 ?m and an interpitch of 2 ?m. The approach does not involve any dry-etching processes which are exclusively used by any current ?LED fabrication approaches. As a result, our approach has entirely eliminated any damage induced during the dry-etching processes. Our green ?LED array chips exhibit a record external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 6% at ?515 nm in the green spectral region, although our measurements have been performed on bare chips which do not have any coating, passivation, epoxy, or reflector, which are generally used for standard LED packaging in order to enhance extraction efficiency. A high luminance of >107 cd/m2 has been obtained on the ?LED array bare chips. Temperature-dependent measurements show that our ?LED array structure exhibits an internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of 28%. It is worth highlighting that our epitaxial approach is fully compatible with any existing microdisplay fabrication techniques.

Ultrasmall, Ultracompact and Ultrahigh Efficient InGaN Micro Light Emitting Diodes (?LEDs) with Narrow Spectral Line Width.

Project description:Augmented reality and visual reality (AR and VR) microdisplays require micro light emitting diodes (?LEDs) with an ultrasmall dimension (?5 ?m), high external quantum efficiency (EQE), and narrow spectral line width. Unfortunately, dry etching which is the most crucial step for the fabrication of ?LEDs in current approaches introduces severe damages, which seem to become an insurmountable challenge for achieving ultrasmall ?LEDs with high EQE. Furthermore, it is well-known that ?LEDs which require InGaN layers as an emitting region naturally exhibit significantly broad spectral line width, which becomes increasingly severe toward long wavelengths such as green. In this paper, we have reported a combination of our selective overgrowth approach developed very recently and epitaxial lattice-matched distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) embedded in order to address all these fundamental issues. As a result, our ?LEDs with a diameter of 3.6 ?m and an interpitch of 2 ?m exhibit an ultrahigh EQE of 9% at ?500 nm. More importantly, the spectral line width of our ?LEDs has been significantly reduced down to 25 nm, the narrowest value reported so far for III-nitride green ?LEDs.

Luminescence studies on green emitting InGaN/GaN MQWs implanted with nitrogen.

Project description:We studied the optical properties of metalorganic chemical vapour deposited (MOCVD) InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells (MQW) subjected to nitrogen (N) implantation and post-growth annealing treatments. The optical characterization was carried out by means of temperature and excitation density-dependent steady state photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, supplemented by room temperature PL excitation (PLE) and PL lifetime (PLL) measurements. The as-grown and as-implanted samples were found to exhibit a single green emission band attributed to localized excitons in the QW, although the N implantation leads to a strong reduction of the PL intensity. The green band was found to be surprisingly stable on annealing up to 1400°C. A broad blue band dominates the low temperature PL after thermal annealing in both samples. This band is more intense for the implanted sample, suggesting that defects generated by N implantation, likely related to the diffusion/segregation of indium (In), have been optically activated by the thermal treatment.

Monolithic integration of AlGaInP-based red and InGaN-based green LEDs via adhesive bonding for multicolor emission.

Project description:In general, to realize full color, inorganic light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are diced from respective red-green-blue (RGB) wafers consisting of inorganic crystalline semiconductors. Although this conventional method can realize full color, it is limited when applied to microdisplays requiring high resolution. Designing a structure emitting various colors by integrating both AlGaInP-based and InGaN-based LEDs onto one substrate could be a solution to achieve full color with high resolution. Herein, we introduce adhesive bonding and a chemical wet etching process to monolithically integrate two materials with different bandgap energies for green and red light emission. We successfully transferred AlGaInP-based red LED film onto InGaN-based green LEDs without any cracks or void areas and then separated the green and red subpixel LEDs in a lateral direction; the dual color LEDs integrated by the bonding technique were tunable from the green to red color regions (530-630 nm) as intended. In addition, we studied vertically stacked subpixel LEDs by deeply analyzing their light absorption and the interaction between the top and bottom pixels to achieve ultra-high resolution.

Green Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Lasers Based on InGaN Quantum Dots and Short Cavity.

Project description:Room temperature low threshold lasing of green GaN-based vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) was demonstrated under continuous wave (CW) operation. By using self-formed InGaN quantum dots (QDs) as the active region, the VCSEL emitting at 524.0 nm has a threshold current density of 51.97 A cm-2, the lowest ever reported. The QD epitaxial wafer featured with a high IQE of 69.94% and the δ-function-like density of states plays an important role in achieving low threshold current. Besides, a short cavity of the device (~ 4.0 λ) is vital to enhance the spontaneous emission coupling factor to 0.094, increase the gain coefficient factor, and decrease the optical loss. To improve heat dissipation, AlN layer was used as the current confinement layer and electroplated copper plate was used to replace metal bonding. The results provide important guidance to achieving high performance GaN-based VCSELs.

Carrier localization in In-rich InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells for green light-emitting diodes.

Project description:Carrier localization phenomena in indium-rich InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells (MQWs) grown on sapphire and GaN substrates were investigated. Temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, ultraviolet near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM), and confocal time-resolved PL (TRPL) spectroscopy were employed to verify the correlation between carrier localization and crystal quality. From the spatially resolved PL measurements, we observed that the distribution and shape of luminescent clusters, which were known as an outcome of the carrier localization, are strongly affected by the crystalline quality. Spectroscopic analysis of the NSOM signal shows that carrier localization of MQWs with low crystalline quality is different from that of MQWs with high crystalline quality. This interrelation between carrier localization and crystal quality is well supported by confocal TRPL results.

Realization of high-luminous-efficiency InGaN light-emitting diodes in the "green gap" range.

Project description:Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) in the wavelength region of 535-570 nm are still inefficient, which is known as the "green gap" problem. Light in this range causes maximum luminous sensation in the human eye and is therefore advantageous for many potential uses. Here, we demonstrate a high-brightness InGaN LED with a normal voltage in the "green gap" range based on hybrid multi-quantum wells (MQWs). A yellow-green LED device is successfully fabricated and has a dominant wavelength, light output power, luminous efficiency and forward voltage of 560 nm, 2.14 mW, 19.58 lm/W and 3.39 V, respectively. To investigate the light emitting mechanism, a comparative analysis of the hybrid MQW LED and a conventional LED is conducted. The results show a 2.4-fold enhancement of the 540-nm light output power at a 20-mA injection current by the new structure due to the stronger localization effect, and such enhancement becomes larger at longer wavelengths. Our experimental data suggest that the hybrid MQW structure can effectively push the efficient InGaN LED emission toward longer wavelengths, connecting to the lower limit of the AlGaInP LEDs' spectral range, thus enabling completion of the LED product line covering the entire visible spectrum with sufficient luminous efficacy.

Wavelength tunable InGaN/GaN nano-ring LEDs via nano-sphere lithography.

Project description:In this research, nano-ring light-emitting diodes (NRLEDs) with different wall width (120 nm, 80 nm and 40 nm) were fabricated by specialized nano-sphere lithography technology. Through the thinned wall, the effective bandgaps of nano-ring LEDs can be precisely tuned by reducing the strain inside the active region. Photoluminescence (PL) and time-resolved PL measurements indicated the lattice-mismatch induced strain inside the active region was relaxed when the wall width is reduced. Through the simulation, we can understand the strain distribution of active region inside NRLEDs. The simulation results not only revealed the exact distribution of strain but also predicted the trend of wavelength-shifted behavior of NRLEDs. Finally, the NRLEDs devices with four-color emission on the same wafer were demonstrated.

Effect of strain relaxation on performance of InGaN/GaN green LEDs grown on 4-inch sapphire substrate with sputtered AlN nucleation layer.

Project description:Here we demonstrate high-brightness InGaN/GaN green light emitting diodes (LEDs) with in-situ low-temperature GaN (LT-GaN) nucleation layer (NL) and ex-situ sputtered AlN NL on 4-inch patterned sapphire substrate. Compared to green LEDs on LT-GaN (19?nm)/sapphire template, green LEDs on sputtered AlN (19?nm)/template has better crystal quality while larger in-plane compressive strain. As a result, the external quantum efficiency (EQE) of green LEDs on sputtered AlN (19?nm)/sapphire template is lower than that of green LEDs on LT-GaN (19?nm)/sapphire template due to strain-induced quantum-confined Stark effect (QCSE). We show that the in-plane compressive strain of green LEDs on sputtered AlN/sapphire templates can be manipulated by changing thickness of the sputtered AlN NL. As the thickness of sputtered AlN NL changes from 19?nm to 40?nm, the green LED on sputtered AlN (33?nm)/sapphire template exhibits the lowest in-plane compressive stress and the highest EQE. At 20?A/cm2, the EQE of 526?nm green LEDs on sputtered AlN (33?nm)/sapphire template is 36.4%, about 6.1% larger than that of the green LED on LT-GaN (19?nm)/sapphire template. Our experimental data suggest that high-efficiency green LEDs can be realized by growing InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells (MQWs) on sputtered AlN/sapphire template with reduced in-plane compressive strain and improved crystal quality.
