In this article, the effects of polarization-related electric fields on the energy band diagrams, wavelength shift, wave function overlap, and efficiency droop for InGaN quantum wells on various crystal orientations, including polar (0001) (c -plane), semipolar (2021), nonpolar (1010) (m-plane).
Abstract
This work examines the effects of polarization-related electric fields on the energy band diagrams, wavelength shift, wave function overlap, and efficiency droop for InGaN quantum wells on various crystal orientations, including polar (0001) (c -plane), semipolar (2021), semipolar (2021), and nonpolar (1010) (m-plane). Based on simulations, we show that the semipolar (2021) orientation exhibits excellent potential for the development of high-efficiency, low-droop light-emitting diodes (LEDs). We then present recent advancements in crystal growth, optical performance, and thermal performance of semipolar (2021) LEDs. Finally, we demonstrate a low-droop, high-efficiency single-quantum-well blue semipolar (2021) LED with an external quantum efficiency of more than 50% at 100 A/cm2.

Comparison between blue lasers and light-emitting diodes for future solid-state lighting

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the performance of LEDs and blue laser diode (LD) for future solid-state lighting (SSL) systems and compared their current state-of-the-art input-power-density-dependent power-conversion efficiencies and potential improvements both in their peak powerconversion efficiency and in the input power densities at which those efficiencies peak.

Nonpolar InGaN/GaN Core-Shell Single Nanowire Lasers.

TL;DR: The results show the viability of this p-i-n nonpolar core-shell nanowire architecture, previously investigated for next-generation light-emitting diodes, as low-threshold, coherent UV-visible nanoscale light emitters, and open a route toward monolithic, integrable, electrically injected single-nanowire lasers operating at room temperature.

Nitride semiconductors free of electrostatic fields for efficient white light-emitting diodes

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the epitaxial growth of GaN/(Al,Ga)N on tetragonal LiAlO2 in a non-polar direction allows the fabrication of structures free of electrostatic fields, resulting in an improved quantum efficiency, which is expected to pave the way towards highly efficient white LEDs.

Origin of efficiency droop in GaN-based light-emitting diodes

TL;DR: In this paper, the efficiency droop in GaInN∕GaN multiple-quantum well (MQW) light-emitting diodes was investigated and it was shown that the droop is not related to MQW efficiency but rather to the recombination of carriers outside the MqW region.
