In recent years, blue light emitting diodes and lasers of III-nitride semic
onductors have been of much interest. This is mainly due to its large bandg
ap ranging from 1.89 eV (wurtzite InN) to 3.42 eV (wurtzite GaN). InGaN/GaN
quantum well (QW) structures have been used to achieve high lumens blue LE
Ds. Tn this paper, InGaN/GaN QW intermixing structure is theoretically anal
yzed and is used to optimize and tune the optical emission. (C) 1999 Publis
