摘要
We report the white color electroluminescence (EL) emission from InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells (MQWs) grown on GaN microfacets. The white color was realized by combining EL emission from InGaN/GaN MQWs on c-plane (0001), semipolar {11-22}, and {1-101} microfacets of trapezoidal n-GaN arrays. The color of EL emission was changed from reddish to bluish color with injection current and showed a white color in the current range of 180-230 mA. The variation in the color of EL emission was attributed to differences in current injection and quantum efficiency of MQWs grown on c-plane (0001) and semipolar GaN microfacets.
