The result analysis shows that the small distance and large radius of micro-cylinder and micro-hemisphere for cylindrical and hemispherical PSS would be more effective to enhance LED efficacy. The hemispherical pattern is more efficient than the cylindrical for enhancement for the light extraction efficiency (LEE) of PSS-LED flip chip. The light extraction efficiency of micro-hemispherical PSS-LED chip is twice than that on the non-patterned (or normal planar) sapphire substrate (non-PSS).","PeriodicalId":114800,"journal":{"name":"Numerical Simulation of Optoelectronic Devices, 2014","volume":"104 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115141666","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both polar and nonpolar LED structures suffer from inhomogeneous injection. Undoped wide-bandgap electron blocking layer (EBL) located on the P-side of the active region can only make the situation worse by further reducing already insufficient hole injection. On the other hand, P-doped EBL facilitates the hole injection, improves the overall active region injection uniformity, and reduces the carrier leakage. We show, however, that EBLs act very differently in polar and nonpolar III-nitride multi-QW structures. While in nonpolar LED the p-doped EBL ultimately promotes the inter-QW carrier exchange, the injection efficiency in polar structure remains limited by strong electron leakage from the marginal p-side QW.","PeriodicalId":114800,"journal":{"name":"Numerical Simulation of Optoelectronic Devices, 2014","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114790151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
