2.805 Gbit/s high-bandwidth phosphor white light visible light communication utilizing an InGaN/GaN semipolar blue micro-LED.

We propose and implement a high-bandwidth white-light visible light communication (VLC) system accomplishing data rate of 2.805 Gbit/s utilizing a semipolar blue micro-LED. The system uses an InGaN/GaN semipolar (20-21) blue micro-LED to excite yellow phosphor film for high-speed VLC.

High-bandwidth InGaN/GaN semipolar micro-LED acting as a fast photodetector for visible light communications.

We propose and demonstrate a green semipolar (20-21) micro-light emitting diode (LED) acting as a high speed visible light communication (VLC) photodiode (PD). The micro-LED PD has the optical-to-electrical (OE) response of 228 MHz. A record data rate of 540 Mbit/s in on-off-keying (OOK) format with free-space transmission distance of 1.
