Summary: The study demonstrated a fabrication process for Ohmic contact on low-doping-density p-type GaN with nitrogen-annealed Mg, achieving reduced contact resistance and a localized contact layer. The mechanism underlying the reduced contact resistance, involving mutual diffusion of Ga and Mg atoms on the interface, was studied using various techniques such as scanning transmission electron microscopy.

Summary: This study demonstrates the precise control of Mg concentration in p-type GaN layers using the halide vapor phase epitaxy method. By adjusting the input partial pressure of MgCl2, the Mg concentration in GaN layers can be effectively controlled. The samples exhibit high structural qualities and the acceptor concentration is in good agreement with the concentration of Mg, suggesting that almost all Mg atoms act as acceptors.

Summary: Blue semipolar InGaN microcavity light-emitting diodes (MC-LEDs) with cavity lengths of 113, 205, and 290 nm were successfully fabricated, showing the potential for ultra-thin MC-LEDs. The peak external quantum efficiencies (EQEs) of these MC-LEDs varied depending on the quantum well (QW) positions within the cavity, with the 290 nm cavity length MC-LED achieving the highest peak EQE of 6.7%. The emission characteristics of the MC-LEDs remained consistent at a peak wavelength of 430 nm under different current densities during pulsed operation.

Summary: The study introduced a method for fabricating ultra-small InGaN μLEDs, successfully realizing different shapes of green μLEDs. It was found that as the size of the μLED decreases, the series resistance and turn-on voltage increase, while the light output power density and external quantum efficiency also improve.

Summary: In this study, a thin AlInN electron-blocking layer (EBL) is proposed to replace the conventional AlGaN EBL in III-nitride ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (UV LEDs). Numerical results show that the UV LED with thin AlInN improves the optoelectronic performance and reduces sensitivity to p-doping. The thin AlInN layer facilitates hole transportation through intra-band tunneling and effectively suppresses electron leakage, resulting in a considerably enhanced carrier radiative recombination rate and alleviated efficiency droop in the proposed LED.
