摘要
The optical polarization characteristics of surface plasmon(SP)coupled Al Ga N-based light emitting diodes(LEDs)are investigated theoretically by analyzing the radiation recombination process and scattering process respectively.For the Al_(0.5)Ga_(0.5)N/Al/Al_(2)O_(3)slab structure,the relative intensity of TE-polarized and TM-polarized spontaneous emission(SE)rate into the SP mode obviously depends on the thickness of the Al layer.The calculation results show that TM dominated emission will be transformed into TE dominated emission with the decrease of the Al thickness,while the emission intensities of both TE/TM polarizations will decrease significantly.In addition,compared with TM polarized emission,TE polarized emission is easier to be extracted by SP coupling.For the Al_(0.5)Ga_(0.5)N/Al nano-particle structure,the ratio of transmittance for TE/TM polarized emission can reach~3.06,while for the Al free structure,it is only 1.2.Thus,the degree of polarization of SP coupled LED can be improved by the reasonable structural design.
