A high-brightness, droop-free, and speckle-free InGaN/GaN quantum well blue superluminescent diode (SLD) was demonstrated on a semipolar (2021¯) GaN substrate. The 447-nm emitting SLD has a broad spectral linewidth of 6.3 nm at an optical power of 123 mW. A peak optical power of 256 mW was achieved at 700 mA CW injection current. By combining YAG:Ce phosphor, SLD-generated white light shows a color-rendering index (CRI) of 68.9 and a correlated color temperature (CCT) of 4340 K. The measured frequency response of the SLD revealed a -3 dB bandwidth of 560 MHz, thus demonstrating the feasibility of the device for both solid-state lighting (SSL) and visible-light communication (VLC) applications.

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).

Polarized light has promising applications in biological inspections, displays, and precise measurements. Direct emission of polarized light from a semiconductor device is highly desired in order to reduce the size and energy-consumption of the whole system. In this study, we demonstrate a semipolar GaN-based microcavity light-emitting diode (MCLED) that could simultaneously produce green light with perpendicular and parallel polarizations to the -axis.

In this paper, we demonstrate growth of three-dimensional (3D) inverted pyramid GaN on nano-patterned sapphire substrates (NPSS). By using the sputtered AlN nucleation layer, the uniformity of the inverted pyramid has been improved to a large extent.

The influence of polar, water-miscible organic solvents (POS) on protein structure, stability, and functional activity is a subject of significant interest and complexity. This study examines the effects of acetonitrile (ACN), a semipolar, aprotic solvent, on the solvation properties of blocked Ace-Gly-X-Gly-Nme tripeptides (where Ace and Nme stands for acetyl and N-methyl amide groups respectively and X is any amino acid) through extensive molecular dynamics simulations. Individual simulations were conducted for each peptide, encompassing five different ACN concentrations within the range of χ = 0.

Background: Sepsis is defined as a dysfunctional host response to infection. The diverse clinical presentations of sepsis pose diagnostic challenges and there is a demand for enhanced diagnostic markers for sepsis as well as an understanding of the underlying pathological mechanisms involved in sepsis. From this perspective, metabolomics has emerged as a potentially valuable tool for aiding in the early identification of sepsis that could highlight key metabolic pathways and underlying pathological mechanisms.
