Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, AlGaN materials have strong spontaneous polarization and piezoelectric polarization effects. Therefore, there is a quantum confinement Stark effect caused by the polarization effect in the quantum well layer, which makes the wave functions of electrons and holes separated in space. resulting in low radiative recombination efficiency of electrons and holes
Moreover, a large number of defects in AlGaN materials will also act as non-radiative recombination centers, seriously affecting the internal quantum efficiency of UV light-emitting diodes.
