We report on the illustration of the first electron blocking layer (EBL) free AlInN nanowire light-emitting diodes (LEDs) operating in the deep ultraviolet (DUV) wavelength region (sub-250 nm). We have systematically analyzed the results using APSYS software and compared with simulated AlGaN nanowire DUV LEDs. From the simulation results, significant efficiency droop was observed in AlGaN based devices, attributed to the significant electron leakage. However, compared to AlGaN nanowire DUV LEDs at similar emission wavelength, the proposed single quantum well (SQW) AlInN based light-emitters offer higher internal quantum efficiency without droop up to current density of 1500 A/cm2 and high output optical power. Moreover, we find that transverse magnetic polarized emission is ~ 5 orders stronger than transverse electric polarized emission at 238 nm wavelength. Further research shows that the performance of the AlInN DUV nanowire LEDs decreases with multiple QWs in the active region due to the presence of the non-uniform carrier distribution in the active region. This study provides important insights on the design of new type of high performance AlInN nanowire DUV LEDs, by replacing currently used AlGaN semiconductors.

We report on the demonstration of the first axial AlInN ultraviolet core-shell nanowire light-emitting diodes with highly stable emission in the UV wavelength range. During the epitaxial growth of AlInN layer, an AlInN shell is spontaneously formed, resulted in the reduced nonradiative recombination on nanowire surface. The AlInN nanowires exhibit high internal quantum efficiency of ~ 52% at room temperature for emission at 295nm. The peak emission wavelength can be varied from 290 nm to 355 nm by changing the growth condition. Moreover, significantly strong transverse magnetic (TM) polarized emission is recorded which is ~ 4 times stronger compared to the transverse electric (TE) polarized light at 295 nm. This study provides alternative approach for the fabrication of new type of high-performance ultraviolet light-emitters.
This article presents the use of flexible carbon substrates for the growth of III-nitride nanowire light emitters. A dense packing of gallium nitride nanowires were grown on a carbon paper substrate. The nanowires grew predominantly along the a-plane direction, normal to the local surface of the carbon paper. Strong photo- and electro-luminescence was observed from InGaN quantum well light emitting diode nanowires.
We present the combined analysis of the electroluminescence (EL) as well as the current-voltage (I-V) behavior of single, freestanding (In,Ga)N/GaN nanowire (NW) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) in an unprocessed, self-assembled ensemble grown by molecul ar beam epitaxy. The data were acquired in a scanning electron microscope equipped with a micromanipulator and a luminescence detection system. Single NW spectra consist of emission lines originating from different quantum wells, and the width of the spectra increases with decreasing peak emission energy. The corresponding I-V characteristics are described well by the modified Shockley equation. The key advantage of this measurement approach is the possibility to correlate the EL intensity of a single NW LED with the actual current density in this NW. This way, the external quantum efficiency (EQE) can be investigated as a function of the current in a single NW LED. The comparison of the EQE characteristic of single NWs and the ensemble device allows a quite accurate determination of the actual number of emitting NWs in the working ensemble LED and the respective current densities in its individual NWs. This information is decisive for a meaningful and comprehensive characterization of a NW ensemble device, rendering the measurement approach employed here a very powerful analysis tool.
We demonstrate cryogenic, electrically-injected, waveguide-coupled Si light-emitting diodes (LEDs) operating at 1.22 $mu$m. The active region of the LED consists of W centers implanted in the intrinsic region of a $p$-$i$-$n$ diode. The LEDs are inte grated on waveguides with superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs). We demonstrate the scalability of this platform with an LED coupled to eleven SNSPDs in a single integrated photonic device. Such on-chip optical links may be useful for quantum information or neuromorphic computing applications.
The radiative recombination of injected charge carriers gives rise to electroluminescence (EL), a central process for light-emitting diode (LED) operation. It is often presumed in some emerging fields of optoelectronics, including perovskite and orga nic LEDs, that the minimum voltage required for light emission is the semiconductor bandgap divided by the elementary charge. Here we show for many classes of LEDs, including those based on metal halide perovskite, organic, chalcogenide quantum-dot and commercial III-V semiconductors, photon emission can be generally observed at record-low driving voltages of 36%-60% of their bandgaps, corresponding to a large apparent energy gain of 0.6-1.4 eV per emitted photon. Importantly, for various classes of LEDs with very different modes of charge injection and recombination (dark saturation current densities ranging from ~10^-35 to ~10^-21 mA/cm2), their EL intensity-voltage curves under low voltages exhibit similar behaviors, revealing a universal origin of ultralow-voltage device operation. Finally, we demonstrate as a proof-of-concept that perovskite LEDs can transmit data efficiently to a silicon detector at 1V, a voltage below the silicon bandgap. Our work provides a fresh insight into the operational limits of electroluminescent diodes, highlighting the significant potential of integrating low-voltage LEDs with silicon electronics for next-generation communications and computational applications.
