Abstract

We reduced the operating voltage of AlGaN homojunction tunnel junction (TJ) deep-ultraviolet (UV) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) by two approaches: the suppression of carbon incorporation and the doping of a high concentration of silicon in an n+-AlGaN layer. The AlGaN homojunction TJ deep-UV LEDs had a significantly reduced forward voltage upon suppressing the incorporation of carbon in the n+-AlGaN layer. The suppression of electron compensation by carbon in nitrogen sites and the doping of a high concentration of silicon in an n+-AlGaN layer are important for reducing the operating voltage of AlGaN homojunction TJ deep-UV LEDs.
