ABSTRACT
This paper demonstrates that quantum-confined Stark effect (QCSE) within the multiple quantum wells (MQWs) can be suppressed by the growths of InGaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on the nano-sized patterned c-plane sapphire substrates (PCSSs) with reducing the space. The efficiency droop is also determined by QCSE. As verified by the experimentally measured data and the ray-tracing simulation results, the suppressed efficiency droop for the InGaN-based LED having the nano-sized PCSS with a smaller space of 200 nm can be acquired due to the weaker function of the QCSE within the MQWs as a result of the smaller polarization fields coming from the lower compressive strain in the corresponding epitaxial layers.
