Effect of Quantum Barrier Thickness in the Multiple-Quantum-Well Active Region of GaInN/GaN Light-Emitting Diodes

The dependence of the polarization-induced electric field in GaInN/GaN multiple-quantum-well light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on the GaN quantum barrier (QB) thickness is investigated. Electrostatic arguments and simulations predict that a thin QB thickness reduces the electric field in the quantum well...
