Dv. Morgan et al., ELECTRICAL AND OPTICAL-PROPERTIES OF HIGH-PERFORMANCE MOCVD GROWN (ALXGA1-X)YIN1-YP VISIBLE LIGHT-EMITTING-DIODES, Electronics Letters, 29(22), 1993, pp. 1991-1992
Electrical and optical properties of high performance (Al(x)Ga1-x)yIn1
-(y)P light emitting diodes (LEDs) are described. The current transpor
t mechanism is dominated by surface recombination. The orange diodes e
xhibit a lower surface recombination current level than the correspond
ing yellow and green LEDs. The device performances compare favourably
with the commercially available LEDs in the orange to green spectral r
egion.
