InGaN/GaN MQWs structures were grown by MOCVD. The effects of the growth interruption time on the optical and structural properties of InGaN/GaN MQWs were investigated. The experimental results show that the growth interruption can improve the interface quality, increase the intensity of photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL); but if the interruption time was too long, the well thickness and the average In composition of MQWs decreased, and the EL intensity also decreased due to poor interface quality and impurities derived from growth interruption.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
