- Abstract
- We investigated the effect of two different quantum well (QW) structures having different indium contents on the optical performance of fully packaged GaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Dual-spectrum QW LEDs exhibit similar to 4% higher external quantum efficiency (at 350 mA) than single-spectrum QW LEDs. However, the two types of LEDs exhibit similar efficiency droop behavior. For both types of LEDs, the output power decreases with increasing junction temperature. When the junction temperature exceeds 70A degrees C, the dual-spectrum QW LEDs exhibit lower output power than the single-spectrum QW LEDs. The wavelength dependence of the output power (at 350 mA) of single-spectrum QW LEDs shows that the LEDs with shorter wavelengths experience more rapid optical degradation than the LEDs with longer wavelengths. Based on the wavelength- and junction-temperature-dependent output power, the droop behavior of the dual-spectrum QW LEDs is described and discussed.
