摘要
In this study, a GaN-based alternating current light-emitting diode (AC-LED) with 34 numbers of microchips illuminated in each bias direction was fabricated. After calibrating the integration duration, the light output powers of the AC-LED driven by AC and DC were 388.1 and 312.8 mW when the input power was about I W, respectively. The flickering illumination mode of the AC-LED driven by AC decreased the heat accumulation and revealed a higher energy utilization efficiency than that of the AC-LED driven by DC. The larger blue shift and smaller full width at half maximum of the AC-LED driven by AC than those of the AC-LED driven by DC were also observed. [DOI: 10.1143/JJAP.47.8808]
