The determination of the carrier diffusion length of semiconductors such as GaN and GaAs by cathodoluminescence imaging requires accurate knowledge about the spatial distribution of generated carriers. To obtain the lateral distribution of…
Factors determining the carrier distribution in InGaN/GaN multiple-quantum-well (MQW) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are studied via photoluminescence and temperature-dependent electroluminescence spectra. Employing a dichromatic LED device,…
Experiments have shown that the light-emission efficiency of indium gallium nitride (InGaN) light-emitting diodes improves with increasing indium concentration. It is widely thought that compositional fluctuations due to indium…
GaN nanowire ensembles with axial InGaN multi-quantum wells (MQWs) were grown by molecular beam epitaxy. In a series of samples, we varied the In content in the MQWs from almost zero to about 20%. Within the nanowire ensemble, the MQWs…
The photoluminescence of III-V wide band-gap semiconductors as InGaN is characterized by local intensity fluctuations, known as 'blinking points', that despite decades of research are not yet completely understood. In this letter we report…
For nitride-based InGaN and AlGaN quantum well (QW) LEDs, the potential fluctuations caused by natural alloy disorders limit the lateral intra-QW carrier diffusion length and current spreading. The diffusion length mainly impacts the…
