Red emission from Mn-containing oxides inspired the development of high color rendering and cost-effective white-light-emitting diodes (WLEDs). Aiming at this fact, a series of new crystallographic site modified (Mg, Ba)MGeO: Mn (M = Al, Ga) compositions were developed with strong deep-red emission in the reaction to UV and blue lights. The MgAlGeO host is composed of three phases: orthorhombic-MgGaGeO, orthorhombic-MgGeO, and cubic-MgAlO.

We analyze the thermal behavior of a flexible nanowire (NW) light-emitting diode (LED) operated under different injection conditions. The LED is based on metal-organic vapor-phase deposition (MOCVD)-grown self-assembled InGaN/GaN NWs in a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) matrix. Despite the poor thermal conductivity of the polymer, active nitride NWs effectively dissipate heat to the substrate.

X-ray diffraction confirmed the formation of single and pure phases of cubic-structured BaZrO. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy revealed the site occupancy of Eu and coordination environment around the different atomic sites.
