The transition to maximum photoluminescence of InGaN single quantum wells is a phenomena that has time constants in the range of few seconds. Using a systematic illumination/darkening procedure we found that these characteristics are related to previous stimulations as if the sample has a memory of past illumination events. Choosing opportune time sequences, time constants were observed to vary more than 100%. These facts suggest the presence of carrier trapping/de-trapping processes that act beyond the single illumination event, accumulating over time in a complex effect.

One-dimensional (1D) vertical nitrides are highly attractive for light-emitting diode (LED) applications because they are useful for overcoming the drawbacks of conventional GaN planar structures. However, the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of GaN multi-quantum-well (MQW) nanowire (NW) LEDs, typical 1D GaN structures, is still too low to replace standard planar LEDs. Here, we report a phenomenon of light amplification from core-shell InGaN/GaN NW LEDs by incorporating graphene quantum dots (GQDs).

Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are widely used as next-generation light sources because of their various advantages. However, their luminous efficiency is remarkably low at the green-emission wavelength. The luminous efficiencies of InGaN/GaN quantum wells (QWs) significantly decrease with increasing indium content in the green wavelength region, mainly owing to the quantum-confined Stark effect (QCSE).

Article Synopsis
- * Concentration quenching reduces brightness in luminescent materials; however, by carefully adjusting Ni concentration, the researchers achieved unprecedented brightness in near-IR photoluminescence despite challenges in heavily doped Cr.
- * The team successfully coupled InGaN LEDs with a phosphor that achieved a record output power of 41.5 mW and improved efficiency, revealing important insights for creating brighter luminescent materials through optimized emitter dynamics.

Increasing the InN content in the InGaN compound is paramount for optoelectronic applications. It has been demonstrated in homogeneous nanowires or deliberately grown nanowire heterostructures. Here, we present spontaneous core-shell InGaN nanowires grown by molecular beam epitaxy on Si substrates at 625 °C.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the optical properties of wurtzite violet InGaN/GaN coupled quantum well structures using photoluminescence and electroluminescence spectroscopy.
- Two distinct emission peaks, Peak H and Peak L, are noted in both PL and EL spectra, attributed to ground state splitting from well coupling effects.
- Findings suggest that variations in electric fields influence the optical behavior of the QWs, which can be manipulated to enhance understanding for future optoelectronic device development.
