Abstract

InGaN single-quantum-well (SQW) structure blue/green light- emitting diodes (LEDs) were fabricated. At 20 mA, the output power and the external quantum efficiency of the blue SQW LEDs were 5 mW and 9.1 percent, respectively. Those of the green SQW LEDs will a 10 degree cone viewing angle was 10 cd at 20 mA. A white LED made by combining a blue InGaN SQW LED and yttrium aluminium garnet phosphor, which is less expensive than a white LED composed of three primary color LEDs, was developed.
