摘要
A high-crystalline-quality thick m-plane Ga0.92In0.08N film has been realized by epitaxial lateral overgrowth (ELO). The photoluminescence intensity of thick ELO-GaInN is about 6 times stronger than that of conventional thick GaInN. We fabricated a light-emitting diode (LED) having a GaInN/GaN multiquantum wells (MQWs) active layer on an ELO-GaInN layer. Satellite peaks of (1010) in the 2 theta/omega-scan X-ray diffraction profile from this LED can be clearly observed, suggesting that MQWs having a sharp interface are grown. This new LED exhibits blue-light emission with a peak wavelength of 450 nm.
