摘要

运用软件模拟和理论计算的方法分析了量子阱宽度的变化对量子阱束缚态能级与光电性能产生的影响

建立了束缚态分裂能级理论模型。分析结果表明:当量子阱宽较窄时

极化效应导致的能带弯曲是光谱红移的主要原因

而电子泄漏是导致效率下降的主要原因;当阱宽较大时

能级填充是导致光谱红移的主要原因

俄歇复合与载流子离域是导致效率下降的主要原因。由本文得出

当量子阱宽为2.5~3.5 nm时

InGaN/GaN发光二极管获得最大内量子效率与发光效率。

Abstract

The software simulation and theoretical calculations are used to analysis the relationship between In

N quantum well blue LED's photoelectric properties and quantum well bound state energy level. A bound state split level model is established. When the quantum well thickness is narrower

the band bending caused by the polarization effects is the main reason for the spectral red-shift

and electron leakage is the main reason for efficiency droop. But as the well width increase

level filling is the main reason for the red-shift of spectrum

Auger recombination and carrier delocalization are the main reason for lower efficiency. By this article

the optimization quantum well width for InGaN/GaN light-emitting diodes can be obtained. The maximum internal quantum efficiency and luminous efficiency can be obtained when the optimization quantum well width is 2.5~3.5 nm.
