Temperature dependent photoluminescence showed that the InGaN UL can improve the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of MQW effectively due to strain release. And a maximum IQE of 50% was obtained when the thickness and In content of the InGaN UL were 60 nm and 0.01, respectively. Furthermore, the larger In content or thickness of the InGaN UL makes the IQE lower. Arrhenius fit to the experiment data showed that the IQE fall was mainly caused by the quantity increase of the nonradiative recombination centers, which was believed related to the accumulated stress in InGaN ULs.展开更多

The MQW perovskite can self-assemble to a unique structure of vertically graded distribution with two-dimensional layered perovskite covered by three-dimensionallike perovskite at top, which can naturally form a barrier of electron transporting to the anode interface,thereby enhancing the charge capture efficiency. This leads to hole-transport-layer-free MQW perovskite LEDs reaching an external quantum efficiency(EQE) of 9.0% with emission peak at 528 nm, which is over6 times of LEDs based on three-dimensional perovskite with the same device structure, representing the record EQE of hole-transport-layer-free perovskite LED.展开更多

By simulations, it is found that the V-pits can act as effective escape paths for the photo-generated carriers. Due to the thin barrier thickness and low indium composition of the MQW on V-pit sidewall, the carriers entered the sidewall QWs can easily escape and contribute to the photocurrent. This forms a parallel escape route for the carries generated in the fiat quantum wells. As the barrier thickness of the fiat MQW increases, more carriers would transport via the V-pits. Furthermore, it is found that the V-pits may reduce the recombination losses of carriers due to their screening effect to the dislocations. These discoveries are not only helpful for understanding the carrier transport mechanism in the InGaN/GaN MQW, but also important in design of the structure of solar cells.展开更多
