Enhanced Performance of AlGaN-Based Deep Ultraviolet Light-Emitting Diodes with Chirped Superlattice Electron Deceleration Layer

Abstract AlGaN-based deep ultraviolet (DUV) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) suffer from electron overflow and insufficient hole injection. In this paper, novel DUV LED structures with superlattice electron deceleration layer (SEDL) is proposed to decelerate the electrons injected to the active region a...
