Biasing of P-N Junction01:16

Biasing of P-N Junction

426
The operation of a p-n junction diode involves various biasing conditions, including forward bias, reverse bias, and equilibrium.
In equilibrium, no external voltage is applied across the p-n junction. The depletion region is formed at the junction interface due to the diffusion of carriers, which leaves behind charged dopants, acceptors on the p-side, and donors on the n-side. These immobile charges create an electric field that prevents further diffusion of carriers. The related energy band...

    Summary

    Replacing opaque metal electrodes with transparent indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes significantly boosts light output and external quantum efficiency (EQE) in indium gallium nitride (InGaN)-based micro-light-emitting diodes (micro-LEDs). This strategy offers a universal method for enhancing micro-LED performance across various colors.

    Area of Science:

    • Optoelectronics
    • Materials Science
    • Semiconductor Devices

    Background:

    • Indium gallium nitride (InGaN)-based micro-light-emitting diodes (micro-LEDs) are crucial for advanced display and lighting applications.
    • Conventional micro-LEDs often use opaque metal p-electrodes (e.g., Cr/Pt/Au), which limit light extraction efficiency due to absorption.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the replacement of opaque metal p-electrodes with transparent indium tin oxide (ITO) p-electrodes in InGaN-based micro-LEDs.
    • To enhance the light output power and external quantum efficiency (EQE) of micro-LEDs.

    Main Methods:

    • Fabrication of green micro-LED arrays (20x20 µm² and 50x50 µm²) utilizing ITO p-electrodes.
    • Comparison of optical and electrical performance metrics (light output power, EQE) between devices with ITO and conventional metal p-electrodes.
    • Characterization of ITO p-electrode properties, including transmittance and resistivity.

    Main Results:

    • ITO p-electrodes demonstrated high transmittance (∼80%) across the visible spectrum and low resistivity.
    • Micro-LEDs with ITO p-electrodes showed a 1.20-1.25 times improvement in light output power compared to metal p-electrode devices.
    • On-wafer EQE reached 7.36% for ITO devices, a significant increase from 5.98%-6.16% for metal devices at current densities ≤1.6 A/cm².

    Conclusions:

    • Replacing opaque metal p-electrodes with transparent ITO p-electrodes is an effective strategy for enhancing micro-LED light output and EQE.
    • The ITO p-electrode approach is compatible with red, green, and blue micro-LED configurations, offering a universal performance enhancement solution.
