Abstract:
GaN-based light emitting diodes (LEDs) with different In contents in the wells were fabricated. The blue-shift of the LED which comes from the quantum confinement Stark effect (QCSE) is observed when the driving current rangfes from 3 mA to 900 mA. And the blue-shift of the green LED is greater than that of the blue LED as the injection current varies, because the greater In contents in quantum well of green LED determines obvious quantum confinement Stark effect. The luminous efficiency is seriously reduced as the operation current increasing. These results suggest that electrons that overflow from localized states to conduction band recombinating with misfit defects is the major reason when the injection level is not high. The nonuniform hole distribution and electrons overflowing from active region are the possible reasons for the decreased luminous efficiency at high level of injection current. The luminous efficiency of the green LED decreases greater than the blue LED due to the decreased vision function caused by obvious blue-shift.
