The influence of thermal annealing to the characteristics of AlGaInP/GaInP multiple quantum wells light-emitting diode wafers
The
influence of thermal annealing to the characteristics of AlGaInP/GaInP multiple
quantum wells (MQWs) light-emitting diode wafers was studied by means of
electrochemical capacitance–voltage (ECV) and photoluminescence (PL). Compared
with the sample unannealed, the hole carrier concentration of p-GaP layer
increased from 5.5×1018 to 6.5×1018 cm−3,
and the hole carrier concentration of p-AlGaInP layer increased from 6.0×1017 to
1.1×1018 cm−3, after wafer was annealed at
460 °C for 15 min in nitrogen. The hole carrier concentrations of
p-GaP layers and p-AlGaInP layers did not obviously change when the annealing
temperature varied from 460 to 700 °C. However, after the sample was
annealed under 780 °C for 15 min, the hole carrier concentration of
p-GaP layer and p-AlGaInP layer decreased to 8×1017 and 1.7×1017 cm−3,
respectively. At the same time, the diffusion of Mg atoms was observed.
