Abstract
We report on the demonstration of top emitting AlGaN tunnel junction deep ultraviolet (UV) light emitting didoes (LEDs) operating at ∼267 nm. We show, both theoretically and experimentally, that the light extraction efficiency can be enhanced by nearly a factor of two with the incorporation of AlGaN nanowire photonic crystal structures. A peak wall-plug efficiency (WPE) ∼3.5% and external quantum efficiency (EQE) ∼5.4% were measured for AlGaN LEDs directly on-wafer without any packaging. This work demonstrates a viable path for achieving high efficiency deep UV LEDs through the integration of AlGaN planar and nanoscale structures.
