Abstract

The effect of temperature-dependent electroluminescence (EL) on nitride-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with different thicknesses of quantum barrier are studied and demonstrated. It was found that quantum confined stark effect (QCSE) of 6-nm thick barrier was more slightly than that of 9- and 12-nm thick barrier. The results indicated that the polarization field is independent of ambient temperature due to no clearly change of blue-shift value. The results also pointed out that the polarization field within the active region of 12-nm thick barrier was stronger than the others due to larger variation of the wavelength transition position (i.e. blue-shift change to red-shift) from 300 to 350 K, and thus it needed more injection carriers to complete the screening of QCSE. In this study, we reported a simple method to provide useful comparison of electrostatic fields within active region in nitride-based LEDs, specifically for structures consisting of identical active regions with different barrier thicknesses.
