Problems solved by technology

In the traditional blue-light GaN-based LED epitaxial structure, due to the high background concentration of the GaN material, a large number of electrons overflow the quantum well into the P-type conductive layer, reducing the electrokinetic injection efficiency
At the same time, due to the limitation of electrons by the electron blocking layer, it also inhibits the injection of electromotive force and reduces the recombination efficiency.
