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

ABSTRACT: 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.

Realization of high-efficiency fluorescent organic light-emitting diodes with low driving voltage.

Project description:It is commonly accepted that a full bandgap voltage is required to achieving efficient electroluminescence (EL) in organic light-emitting diodes. In this work, we demonstrated organic molecules with a large singlet-triplet splitting can achieve efficient EL at voltages below the bandgap voltage. The EL originates from delayed fluorescence due to triplet fusion. Finally, in spite of a lower quantum efficiency, a blue fluorescent organic light-emitting diode having a power efficiency higher than some of the best thermally activated delayed fluorescent and phosphorescent blue organic light-emitting diodes is demonstrated. The current findings suggest that leveraging triplet fusion from purely organic molecules in organic light-emitting diode materials offers an alternative route to achieve stable and high efficiency blue organic light-emitting diodes.

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.

High-performance flat-type InGaN-based light-emitting diodes with local breakdown conductive channel.

Project description:Flat-type InGaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) without an n-type contact electrode were developed by using a local breakdown conductive channel (LBCC), and the effect of the In content of the InGaN quantum wells (QWs) on the local breakdown phenomenon was investigated. Electroluminescence and X-ray analyses demonstrated that the homogeneity and crystallinity of the InGaN QWs deteriorated as the In content of the InGaN QWs increased, thereby increasing the reverse leakage current and decreasing the breakdown voltage. After reverse breakdown with a reverse current of several mA, an LBCC was formed on the GaN-based LEDs. The surface size and anisotropic shape of the LBCC increased as the indium content of the InGaN QWs in the LEDs increased. Moreover, a flat-type InGaN LED without an n-type electrode was developed by using the LBCC. Notably, the resistance of the LBCC decreased with increasing indium content in the InGaN QWs, leading to lower resistance and higher light emission of the flat-type InGaN-based LEDs without an n-type contact electrode.

Thermal and efficiency droop in InGaN/GaN light-emitting diodes: decoupling multiphysics effects using temperature-dependent RF measurements.

Project description:Multiphysics processes such as recombination dynamics in the active region, carrier injection and transport, and internal heating may contribute to thermal and efficiency droop in InGaN/GaN light-emitting diodes (LEDs). However, an unambiguous methodology and characterization technique to decouple these processes under electrical injection and determine their individual roles in droop phenomena is lacking. In this work, we investigate thermal and efficiency droop in electrically injected single-quantum-well InGaN/GaN LEDs by decoupling the inherent radiative efficiency, injection efficiency, carrier transport, and thermal effects using a comprehensive rate equation approach and a temperature-dependent pulsed-RF measurement technique. Determination of the inherent recombination rates in the quantum well confirms efficiency droop at high current densities is caused by a combination of strong non-radiative recombination (with temperature dependence consistent with indirect Auger) and saturation of the radiative rate. The overall reduction of efficiency at elevated temperatures (thermal droop) results from carriers shifting from the radiative process to the non-radiative processes. The rate equation approach and temperature-dependent pulsed-RF measurement technique unambiguously gives access to the true recombination dynamics in the QW and is a useful methodology to study efficiency issues in III-nitride LEDs.

Minimising efficiency roll-off in high-brightness perovskite light-emitting diodes.

Project description:Efficiency roll-off is a major issue for most types of light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and its origins remain controversial. Here we present investigations of the efficiency roll-off in perovskite LEDs based on two-dimensional layered perovskites. By simultaneously measuring electroluminescence and photoluminescence on a working device, supported by transient photoluminescence decay measurements, we conclude that the efficiency roll-off in perovskite LEDs is mainly due to luminescence quenching which is likely caused by non-radiative Auger recombination. This detrimental effect can be suppressed by increasing the width of quantum wells, which can be easily realized in the layered perovskites by tuning the ratio of large and small organic cations in the precursor solution. This approach leads to the realization of a perovskite LED with a record external quantum efficiency of 12.7%, and the efficiency remains to be high, at approximately 10%, under a high current density of 500?mA?cm-2.

High efficiency blue organic light-emitting diodes with below-bandgap electroluminescence.

Project description:Blue organic light-emitting diodes require high triplet interlayer materials, which induce large energetic barriers at the interfaces resulting in high device voltages and reduced efficiencies. Here, we alleviate this issue by designing a low triplet energy hole transporting interlayer with high mobility, combined with an interface exciplex that confines excitons at the emissive layer/electron transporting material interface. As a result, blue thermally activated delay fluorescent organic light-emitting diodes with a below-bandgap turn-on voltage of 2.5 V and an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 41.2% were successfully fabricated. These devices also showed suppressed efficiency roll-off maintaining an EQE of 34.8% at 1000 cd m-2. Our approach paves the way for further progress through exploring alternative device engineering approaches instead of only focusing on the demanding synthesis of organic compounds with complex structures.

Carrier Dynamics and Electro-Optical Characterization of High-Performance GaN/InGaN Core-Shell Nanowire Light-Emitting Diodes.

Project description:In this work, we demonstrate high-performance electrically injected GaN/InGaN core-shell nanowire-based LEDs grown using selective-area epitaxy and characterize their electro-optical properties. To assess the quality of the quantum wells, we measure the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) using conventional low temperature/room temperature integrated photoluminescence. The quantum wells show a peak IQE of 62%, which is among the highest reported values for nanostructure-based LEDs. Time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) is also used to study the carrier dynamics and response times of the LEDs. TRPL measurements yield carrier lifetimes in the range of 1-2 ns at high excitation powers. To examine the electrical performance of the LEDs, current density-voltage (J-V) and light-current density-voltage (L-J-V) characteristics are measured. We also estimate the peak external quantum efficiency (EQE) to be 8.3% from a single side of the chip with no packaging. The LEDs have a turn-on voltage of 2.9 V and low series resistance. Based on FDTD simulations, the LEDs exhibit a relatively directional far-field emission pattern in the range of [Formula: see text]15°. This work demonstrates that it is feasible for electrically injected nanowire-based LEDs to achieve the performance levels needed for a variety of optical device applications.

Mixed halide perovskites for spectrally stable and high-efficiency blue light-emitting diodes.

Project description:Bright and efficient blue emission is key to further development of metal halide perovskite light-emitting diodes. Although modifying bromide/chloride composition is straightforward to achieve blue emission, practical implementation of this strategy has been challenging due to poor colour stability and severe photoluminescence quenching. Both detrimental effects become increasingly prominent in perovskites with the high chloride content needed to produce blue emission. Here, we solve these critical challenges in mixed halide perovskites and demonstrate spectrally stable blue perovskite light-emitting diodes over a wide range of emission wavelengths from 490 to 451 nanometres. The emission colour is directly tuned by modifying the halide composition. Particularly, our blue and deep-blue light-emitting diodes based on three-dimensional perovskites show high EQE values of 11.0% and 5.5% with emission peaks at 477 and 467?nm, respectively. These achievements are enabled by a vapour-assisted crystallization technique, which largely mitigates local compositional heterogeneity and ion migration.

High-Efficiency Diphenylpyrimidine Derivatives Blue Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence Organic Light-Emitting Diodes.

Project description:Organic light-emitting diodes with thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitter have been developed with highly twisted donor-acceptor configurations and color-pure blue emitters. Synthesized 4-(4-(4,6-diphenylpyrimidin-2-yl)phenyl)-10H-spiro[acridine-9,9'-fluorene] (4,6-PhPMAF) doped device with spiroacridine as a donor unit and diphenylpyrimidine as acceptor exhibits the device characteristics such as the luminescence, external quantum efficiencies, current efficiencies, and power efficiencies corresponding to 213 cd/m2, 2.95%, 3.27 cd/A, and 2.94 lm/W with Commission International de l'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.15, 0.11) in 4,6-PhPMAF-doped DPEPO emitter. The reported 10-(4-(2,6-diphenylpyrimidin-4-yl)phenyl)-10H-spiro[acridine-9,9'-fluorene] (2,6-PhPMAF) doped device exhibit high device performance with 1,445 cd/m2, 12.38%, 19.6 cd/A, and 15.4 lm/W, which might be originated from increased internal quantum efficiency by up-converted triplet excitons to the singlet state with relatively smaller ?E ST of 0.17 eV and higher reverse intersystem crossing rate (k RISC) of 1.0 ×108/s in 2,6-PhPMAF than 0.27 eV and 3.9 ×107/s in 4,6-PhPMAF. Despite low performance of 4,6-PhPMAF doped device, synthesized 4,6-PhPMAF has better color purity as a deep-blue emission with y axis (0.11) than reported 2,6-PhPMAF with y axis (0.19) in CIE coordinate. The synthesized 4,6-PhPMAF has higher thermal stability of any transition up to 300°C and decomposition temperature with only 5% weight loss in 400°C than reported 2,6-PhPMAF. The maximum photoluminescence emission of 4,6-PhPMAF in various solvents appeared at 438 nm, which has blue shift about 20 nm than that of 2,6-PhPMAF, which contributes deep-blue emission in synthesized 4,6-PhPMAF.

High efficiency and stability of ink-jet printed quantum dot light emitting diodes.

Project description:The low efficiency and fast degradation of devices from ink-jet printing process hinders the application of quantum dot light emitting diodes on next generation displays. Passivating the trap states caused by both anion and cation under-coordinated sites on the quantum dot surface with proper ligands for ink-jet printing processing reminds a problem. Here we show, by adapting the idea of dual ionic passivation of quantum dots, ink-jet printed quantum dot light emitting diodes with an external quantum efficiency over 16% and half lifetime of more than 1,721,000 hours were reported for the first time. The liquid phase exchange of ligands fulfills the requirements of ink-jet printing processing for possible mass production. And the performance from ink-jet printed quantum dot light emitting diodes truly opens the gate of quantum dot light emitting diode application for industry.
