Abstract
Light-emitting diodes have been grown on GaN single crystals using metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy. The homojunction devices were characterized by electroluminescence, photoluminescence and I–V measurements. Intense, single-peak electroluminescence is obtained at 420nm wavelength, which is attributed to transitions in the p-type GaN underpinned by photoluminescence measurements. The electrical and optical device performance compares favorable to homotype pn-junctions grown on sapphire using identical conditions for growth and characterization. The homoepitaxial light-emitting diodes are twice as bright as the heteroepitaxial devices.
