AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Manufacturing LEDs that emit light at long wavelengths, such as green, yellow, and red, is challenging due to lattice mismatch between InGaN and GaN, leading to strain and defects that degrade device performance.

Method used

Incorporating a porous region of Group III nitride material into the LED structure to reduce strain and align the lattice, allowing for higher indium incorporation and longer wavelength emission.

Benefits of technology

The porous region reduces strain, enabling the growth of high-quality InGaN layers with increased indium content, resulting in improved LED performance and shifted emission wavelengths without spectral broadening.

Abstract

This invention provides a light-emitting diode (LED) containing a porous region of a group III nitride material and a method for manufacturing the same. [Solution] The LED includes an n-doped portion, a p-doped portion, and a light-emitting region disposed between the n-doped portion and the p-doped portion. The light-emitting region includes a light-emitting layer that emits light at a peak wavelength of 400-599 nm under electrical bias, a group III nitride layer disposed on the light-emitting layer, and a group III nitride barrier layer disposed on the group III nitride layer. The light-emitting diode includes a porous region of group III nitride material. An array of LEDs and a method for manufacturing LEDs having a peak emission wavelength of 400 nm-599 nm under electrical bias are also provided.
