Abstract
- Efficiency droop is generally observed in electroluminescence under high current injection. Optical characterization on efficiency droop in InGaN/GaN multiple-quantum-well structures has been conducted at 12 K. Clear droop behaviors were observed for the sample excited by above-bandgap excitation of GaN with pulse laser. The results show that dislocation is not the crucial factor to droop under high carrier density injection, and Auger recombination just slightly affects the efficiency. The radiative recombination may be mainly affected by a multi-carrier-related process (diffusion and drift with a factor of n and n) at the interface between GaN barrier and InGaN well.
