Abstract
Achieving high quantum efficiency in long-wavelength nitride LEDs has proved challenging due to stress induced from high In%, piezoelectric polarization, and defect generation. A leading technique for increasing the efficiency in long-wavelength InGaN is V-defect engineering which uses naturally occurring pyramidal (10-11) defects to achieve deeper hole injection through lateral pathways on the semi-polar sidewalls of the V-defects. In this work we demonstrate V-defect engineered red LEDs achieving a peak EQE of 6.5% at 600 nm on patterned sapphire. We discuss formation and distribution of V-defects as well as luminescence properties and efficiency of InGaN red LEDs.
