The high speed on-off performance of GaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) grown in c-plane direction is limited by long carrier lifetimes caused by spontaneous and piezoelectric polarization. This work demonstrates that this limitation can be overcome by m-planar core-shell InGaN/GaN nanowire LEDs grown on Si(111). Time-resolved electroluminescence studies exhibit 90-10% rise- and fall-times of about 220 ps under GHz electrical excitation. The data underline the potential of these devices for optical data communication in polymer fibers and free space.

Strawberries, known for their antioxidant properties, exhibit changes in physiology and metabolite profiles based on cultivation techniques. In Indonesia, strawberries are typically grown in highland regions, but climate change has necessitated adjustments in cultivation practices to enhance production and quality. This study investigates the adaptation of strawberry plants in lowland environments using light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and the exogenous application of methyl jasmonate (MeJA) and methyl salicylic acid (MeSA).

Plant factories with artificial lighting (PFALs) are a notable choice for urban agriculture due to the system's benefits, where light can be manipulated to enhance the product's yield and quality. Our objective was to test the effect of light spectra with different red-blue combinations and white light on the growth, physiology, and overall quality of three baby-leaf vegetables (green lettuce, kale, and pak choi) grown in a restaurant's PFAL. Leaf mass per area was lower under the most blue-containing treatments in all species.

We compare the optical properties of four diode samples differing by built-in field direction and width of the InGaN quantum well in the active layer: two diodes with standard layer sequences and 2.6 and 15 nm well widths and two diodes with inverted layer ordering (due to the tunnel junction grown before the structure) also with 2.6 and 15 nm widths.

Alfalfa is a widely grown forage with a high crude protein content. Clarifying the interactions between light quality and nitrogen level on yield and nitrogen metabolism can purposely improve alfalfa productivity in plant factories with artificial light (PFAL). In this study, the growth, quality, and nitrogen metabolism of alfalfa grown in PFAL were investigated using three nitrate-nitrogen concentrations (10, 15, and 20 mM, labeled as N, N, and N) and continuous light (CL) with two light qualities (red-blue and red-blue-green light, labeled as RB-C and RBG-C).
