InGaN/GaN Quantum Dot and Nanowire LEDs and Lasers

Article Preview

Abstract:

GaN-based InGaN/GaN self-organized quantum dots and InGaN quantum dots (disks) in GaN nanowires are important nanostructures with potential advantages over planar quantum wells, including luminescence at the longer visible wavelengths. We describe the epitaxy and characteristics of red-emitting InGaN/GaN quantum dot edge-emitting lasers and InGaN/GaN nanowire light emitting diodes, which can be used in a host of applications.
