Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a ZnO-based multi-quantum well light-emitting diode. Background technique [0002] As a wide bandgap semiconductor, ZnO has its unique advantages. The energy band width at room temperature is 3.37eV, and the exciton binding energy is 60meV, which is much larger than GaN's exciton binding energy of 25meV and room temperature molecular thermal kinetic energy of 26meV. Therefore, It has great potential to realize high-brightness semiconductor light-emitting diodes and high-power semiconductor laser devices. A major problem for ZnO to be applied in optoelectronic devices is the p-type doping problem. Group V element-doped p-type ZnO has been extensively studied. However, theoretical calculations show that, compared with group V elements, group I elements Li and Na have shallower acceptor energy levels. Compared with Li, Na is less likely to form interstitial Na, and H is less likely to passivate Na acceptors. Therefore, Na is a...
