摘要
We have demonstrated defect-induced color-tunable monolithic GaN-based vertical light-emitting diodes (VLEDs). With Ag nanorod arrays embedded in p-GaN, large numbers of Ga vacancies (V-Ga) were produced during the thermal bonding process in VLED fabrication. V-Ga-related donor acceptor pair (DAP) transitions in p-GaN resulted in red emission in photoluminescence (PL) measurements as well as a broad electroluminescence (EL) emission spectrum extending from green to red. In combination with high-emission-efficiency blue InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells (MQWs), the emission color of VLEDs can be changed from red to white by increasing the injection current.
