Abstract
Results are presented on planar microcavity light emitting diodes with different device diameters. A record external quantum efficiency of 2 0% is achieved for a 1.5 mm light emitting diode, The strong dependenc e of the quantum efficiency on current density and device size are com pared with theoretical results, A good correspondence is obtained when spectral broadening and photon recycling are taken into account.
