| Using modelling, we have examined alternative designs of light-emitting diode (LED) structures, aimed at
lowering the non-equilibrium carrier concentration and, hence, at suppression of Auger recombination in
the active regions of the diodes. Both a multi-quantum-well (MQW) heterostructure and that with a thick
single active layer are compared. The MQW structure is found to be ineffective for improvement of the
LED internal quantum efficiency (IQE). In contrast, LEDs with a thick single active layers turn out to be
quite promising for high-current operation. Detailed simulation provides a guideline for further optimization
of the LED heterostructures. |
