Abstract
We report the study of the electrical and optical characteristics of AlGaN-GaN quantum-well (QW) ultraviolet light-emitting diodes grown on SiC by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. These devices exhibit room-temperature electroluminescence emission peaked at /spl lambda/ = 363 nm with a narrow linewidth of /spl Delta//spl lambda/ = 9 nm under high-current-density dc injection. We have also applied a Mg-doped AlGaN-GaN superlattice structure as a p-cladding layer and vertical-geometry hole conduction improvement has been verified. A comparative study of the performance of light-emitting devices with single-QW and multiple-QW structures indicates that the single-QW structure is preferred.
