We investigated the optical and electrical properties of red AlGaInP light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as functions chip size, p-cladding layer thickness, number multi-quantum wells (MQWs). External quantum efficiency (EQE) decreased with decreasing size. The ideality factor gradually increased from 1.47 to 1.95 size 350 μm 15 μm. This indicates that smaller LEDs experienced larger carrier loss due Shockley-Read-Hall nonradiative recombination at sidewall defects. S parameter, defined ∂lnL/∂lnI,...
Two kinds of InGaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are investigated to understand the nonradiative carrier recombination processes. Various temperature-dependent measurements such as external quantum efficiency, current-voltage, and electroluminescence spectra utilized from 50 300 K.
