Droop Improvement in InGaN/GaN Light-Emitting Diodes by Polarization Doping of Quantum Wells and Electron Blocking Layer

-Polarization doping in quantum wells and electron blocking layer is proposed to improve the emission intensity and efficiency droop of InGaN light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Band diagrams and the internal quantum efficiencies of LEDs are theoretically studied by the ATLAS simulation program. Numerical results show that the internal quantum efficiency of polarization doped LED structures are improved by 25% as compared to un-doped structures which can be due to accumulation of high density two-dimensional electron gas in quantum wells.
