Conventional ultraviolet (UV) lamps for disinfection emit radiation in the 255-270 nm range, which poses a high risk of causing cancer and cataracts. To address these concerns, solid-state far UV-C sources emitting below 240 nm are gaining…

We report a correlative microscopy study of a sample containing three stacks of InGaN/GaN quantum dots (QDs) grown at different substrate temperature, each stack consisting of 3 layers of QDs. Decreasing the substrate temperature along the…

We have demonstrated surface-plasmon induced change in spontaneous emission rate in the ultraviolet regime at ~ 375-380 nm, using AlN/GaN quantum dots (QD). Using time-resolved and continuous-wave photoluminescence measurements, the…

In this paper, we describe the design and characterization of 400-nm-long (88 periods) AlxGa1-xN/AlN (0 < x < 0.1) quantum dot superlattices deposited on self-assembled GaN nanowires for application in electron-pumped ultraviolet sources.…

Deep ultraviolet (UV) optical emission below 250 nm (~5 eV) in semiconductors is traditionally obtained from high aluminum containing AlGaN alloy quantum wells. It is shown here that high-quality epitaxial ultrathin binary GaN quantum disks…

Integrating light emitters based on III-V materials with silicon-based electronics is crucial for further increase in data transfer rates in communication systems since the indirect bandgap of silicon prevents its direct use as a light…

Silver nanoparticles dispersed on the surface of an inverted GaN LED were found to plasmonically enhance the near-bandedge emission. The resonant surface plasmon coupling led to a significant enhancement in the exciton decay rate and the…

Extreme lattice-mismatched III-V nitrides, such as Bi-incorporated GaN, have been realized experimentally thanks to recent advances in epitaxial growth and characterization techniques. However, theoretical insights into defect-related…

We report on unique features of ultra-thin GaN/AlN quantum wells and demonstrate a new field emission device for human-safe disinfection with an external quantum efficiency of 18% and superior reliability, as compared to far-UVC LEDs. We…

Transitioning to solid-state ultraviolet (UV) lighting is critical for reducing global energy utilization to meet net-zero targets. AlGaN-based far-UVC LEDs offer a mercury-free, energy-efficient alternative to conventional mercury lamps,…

Grazing incidence anomalous x-ray scattering was used to monitor in situ the molecular beam epitaxy growth of GaN/AlN quantum dots (QDs). The strain state was studied by means of grazing incidence Multi-wavelength Anomalous Di raction (MAD)…

Plasmonic nano-objects have shown great potential in enhancing biological and chemical sensing, light harvesting and energy transfer, and optical and quantum computing to name a few. Therefore, an extensive effort has been vested in…

V-pit-defects in GaN-based light-emitting diodes induced by dislocations are considered beneficial to electroluminescence because they relax the strain in InGaN quantum wells and also enhance the hole lateral injection through sidewall of…
