Abstract

AlGaN-based deep ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (DUV LEDs) have great application prospects in sterilization, UV phototherapy, biological monitoring and other aspects. Due to their advantages of energy conservation, environmental protection and easy miniaturization realization, they have garnered much interest and been widely researched. However, compared with InGaN-based blue LEDs, the efficiency of AlGaN-based DUV LEDs is still very low. This paper first introduces the research background of DUV LEDs. Then, various methods to improve the efficiency of DUV LED devices are summarized from three aspects: internal quantum efficiency (IQE), light extraction efficiency (LEE) and wall-plug efficiency (WPE). Finally, the future development of efficient AlGaN-based DUV LEDs is proposed.
