High-efficiency semiconductor resonant-cavity light-emitting diodes: a review

Abstract: Abstract-An overview of highly efficient resonant-cavity lightemitting diodes is presented. First, the basics of dipole emission in planar cavities are reviewed. From these, a number of design rules are derived. We point out some guidelines for comparison of high-efficiency light-emitting diodes, and use these to review the state-of-the-art devices in different material systems and at different wavelengths. We also discuss some advanced techniques based on gratings or photonic crystals to improve the efficienc… Show more

“…A practical realization of such device is a resonant cavity enhanced light emitting diode (RC LED). Such diode was for the first time realized by Schubert et al [14], and later by others [15][16][17]. One of such realization is a device designed for the emission at 1000 nm in which the 8 nm thick InGaAs quantum wells located in a GaAs slab are enclosed by two DBR [18].…”

“…The first is the InGaAs RCLED internal angular emission distribution pattern, as shown in Fig. 52; 29 the second one is a shifted InGaAs RCLED internal emission pattern, which shifts the first emission about 5° to mimic the UCSB RCLED maximum internal emission at 14°; the third is the conventional Lambertian emission pattern. Figure 53 illustrates the three normalized internal angular emission distribution patterns.…”

“…A number of strategies have been employed to improve the extraction efficiency by using surface roughening, chip shaping, and nonresonant or resonant cavity effects. [1][2][3][4][5] In this letter, we introduce a way to improve light extraction by using arrays of micron sized LEDs ͑ -LEDs͒ with parabolic sidewalls to direct the emission through the transparent substrate. The active region contains self-assembled In͑Ga͒As quantum dots ͑QDs͒ on a GaAs substrate.…”
