摘要
Light emitting diodes (LEDs) were grown on the etched m-plane of c-plane GaN/sapphire templates by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). The LEDs, with InxGa1-xN/GaN quantum wells (QWs), were studied and current-voltage measurements show p-n diode behavior. TEM image analysis established that the QWs are on the {1 (1) over bar 01} sidewall semi-polar plane. Electroluminescence measurements on the fabricated LEDs display an emission peak at 487 nm, with a blue shift of only 4 nm on increasing injected current density from 0.3 to 100 A/cm(2). The demonstrated sidewall approach significantly reduces the quantum confined Stark Effect found in QWs grown on c-plane substrates. (C) 2011 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim
