文摘The objective of this work is to simulate a single quantum well ultraviolet light emitting diode(LED) based on AlGaN/GaN/AlGaN and AlGaN/BGaN/AlGaN, by using TCAD Silvaco simulator.

We fix the concentration of the boron in BGaN to only 1% and we vary the thickness of GaN and BGaN quantum well layer from 7 to 20 nm, for the two structures.
