While the traditional lighting design only focuses on the visual aspect, we recently proposed a novel health-lighting design space that takes consideration of both visual and circadian aspects. It allows the exploration of combinations of circadian stimulus and visual brightness appearance. In this work, we first demonstrate that with monochromatic LEDs, almost any combination of circadian & visual impacts can be achieved; with the color constraints from the requirement of general illumination and the purpose of adjusting the lighting's circadian effect during the day, an LED color mixing and tuning solution is shown to optimize the achievable gamut in the circadian-versus-visual lighting design space. As an example of applying this concept, we demonstrate that our RGBW LED color-mixing solution can be used to mimic both visual and circadian characteristics of the measured dynamic daylight for both sunny and cloudy weather conditions.","PeriodicalId":131675,"journal":{"name":"2017 14th China International Forum on Solid State Lighting: International Forum on Wide Bandgap Semiconductors China (SSLChina: IFWS)","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134249367","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}

By comparing the EBIC images of an untested and a degraded laser from the same laser bar, we show that the p-n junction position of the degraded laser has shifted towards the n-doped region and the carrier interface at the p-side of the p-n junction of the degraded laser became less sharp than in the original laser diode. This p-n junction position shift leads to carrier compensation in the active and the n-doped regions, which subsequently leads to an imbalance in the hole and electron concentrations in the active region and a reduction in the emission efficiency of InGaN quantum wells. This occurs because a displacement of the p-n junction, from its optimal position, results in a minority carrier loss, as the latter has a higher probability of recombining non-radiatively en-route to the active region. The minority carrier diffusion lengths were also calculated using two different theoretical models. The results show that the electron diffusion length in the p-doped region in the degraded laser is longer than that in the untested laser. The reason may also be related to the compensation effect or the reduced recombination rate in the degraded laser, which will result in an increase in the threshold current of the laser and the degradation of the laser.","PeriodicalId":131675,"journal":{"name":"2017 14th China International Forum on Solid State Lighting: International Forum on Wide Bandgap Semiconductors China (SSLChina: IFWS)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122062949","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}
