Abstract
We report on the important role played by internal quantum well (QW) fields in the anomalous inversion of capacitance transients in InGaN/GaN multi-QW light-emitting diodes (LEDs). This effect was observed by deep-level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) characterization. Deep-level C (EC–ET=0.25eV), a majority carrier trap related to isolated point defects, gives rise to a negative transient when the bias stimulates it only in the bulk region and to a positive transient when the filling pulse is such that the QW region is probed. We explain this behavior by a model based on the confining effects of QW internal fields on the charge emitted by deep levels.
