摘要

We report on the optical properties of the InGaN-based red LED grown on a c-plane sapphire substrate. Blue emission due to phase separation was successfully reduced in the red LED with an active layer consisting of 4-period InGaN multiple quantum wells embedding an AlGaN interlayer with the Al content of 90% on each quantum well. The light output power and external quantum efficiency at a dc current of 20 mA were 1.1 mW and 2.9% with the wavelength of 629 nm, respectively. This is the first demonstration of a nitride-based red LED with the light output power exceeding 1 mW at 20 mA.
