“…In the present high quality white LEDs, therefore, slow mode degradation is caused mainly by microscopic point defects in devices. In our previous degradation study in the ZnSe-based blue-green LDs and LEDs [10,12], it was found that microscopic point defects (nitrogen acceptor related complex centers), detected as H1-and H0 deep hole traps in DLTS study, were electrically active, showing remarkable increase in the defect densities under the condition of minority carrier injection (recombination enhanced defect reaction : REDR effect) [13,14]. We, therefore, focused our attention on the behavior of the deep H1 and H0 centers which exist in the p-type ZnMgSSe cladding layer, locating at just above the active layer in devices.…”

“…In the series of these active research, one outstanding report was the development of a long lifetime LD device with a device lifetime of 500 hours under room temperature CW operation [6]. This high quality device displays the so called slow-mode degradation, which is caused by marked increase microscopic point defects [7,8,9,10]. An important finding on the long lifetime LD devices is the complete absence of the macro-defects in the devices.…”

“…These devices showed such degradations even though macroscopic crystal defects such as stacking faults and dislocations had been reduced to be 10 3 cm -2 level by improving the growth technology of II -VI/III-V interfaces, i.e., it could be realized that no such defect existed in the emitting region. By investigating the degradation mechanisms, it was recognized that the degradation of the ZnCdSe/MgZnSSe devices with no or very low macroscopic defects was ascribed to pre-existing microscopic point defects and their diffusion induced by nitrogen doping in MgZnSSe p-cladding layers [8,9] and compressive crystal strain in the ZnCdSe active layers [10,11]. Also relative weakness of the crystal bonds of these II-VI crystals was a potential cause of the degradation.…”

“…This high quality device with no macro-defect is found to reveal slow-mode degradation, which involves generation and migration of microscopic point defects [1,[5][6][7]. In order to overcome the slowmode degradation, it is required to accumulate a detailed understanding of the slow-mode degradation mechanism so as to find an artificial-control of the active microscopic centers.…”
