Eu-Doped AlGaN/GaN Superlattice-Based Diode Structure for Red Lighting: Excitation Mechanisms and Active Sites

Abstract: In this work, we have established the effects of postgrowth annealing and Eu implantation, followed by annealing on an AlGaN/GaN superlattice-based diode structure, containing Mg-doped GaN top p-cap layers. The study is based on the combined information from different optical techniques, such as Raman, photoluminescence, and photoluminescence excitation. We have shown that the diode structure exhibits a stable crystalline quality even after annealing under high temperature and high pressure (HTHP) conditions (… Show more

“…Indeed, this absorption is enhanced with the increase of the fluence, confirming an increase in the density of irradiation-induced defects (i.e., a higher number of states in the bandgap obtained for the highest fluence), accompanied by a redshift of E CPPB as seen from the absorption below the ZnO bandgap. This enhanced absorption below the bandgap due to irradiation or implantation-induced defects has already been reported in other wide-bandgap semiconductors such as III-nitrides [46,47].…”

“…The 5 D0 → 7 F0 transition is characterized by its singlet character, i.e. no crystal field splitting is allowed for 5 D0 and 7 F0 levels, implying that the number of the observed 5 D0 → 7 F0 transitions corresponds to the number of non-equivalent active sites if accidental overlaps are not considered [32,44,81,83,84]. Fig.…”

“…The incorporation of the rare-earth (RE) trivalent europium ions (Eu 3+ ) into III-N layers [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23] and nanostructures [24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32] was proved as an excellent strategy to obtain red emission characterized by the sharp and stable Eu 3+ intra-4f 6 transitions. This approach was successfully implemented for in situ Eu 3+ -doped GaN-based emitting devices [31,[33][34][35][36][37][38], with Eu 3+ -related luminescence external quantum efficiency (EQE) values reaching ~29% at room temperature (RT) and ~48% at 77 K [39].…”

“…13,14 Ln-based green and red phosphors have been extensively investigated because of their characteristics of easily sensitized luminescence. 15,16 However, it is hard to achieve Ln-based phosphors with blue emission, which remains a challenging task. 17 To fabricate WLEDs, green-emitting and red-emitting Ln-based phosphors are usually codoped with other blue phosphors such as organic fluorophores, silicon nanoparticles, and quantum dots, 18,19 which might require different excitation wavelengths, limiting their potential applications in the light industry.…”
