Abstract

<div data-language="eng" data-ev-field="abstract">In this study we suppressed the parasitic emission caused by electron overflow found in typical UVB light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Furthermore, modulation of the p-layer structure and doping profile allowed us to decrease the relaxation time of the holes to reach conditions of quasi-charge neutrality in the UVB quantum well. Our UVB LED (sample A) exhibited a clear exciton emission, with its peak near 306 nm and a band-to-band emission at 303 nm. The relative intensity of the exciton emission of sample A decreased as a result of a thermal energy effect. At temperatures of up to 363 K, sample A displayed the exciton emission. Our corresponding UVC LED (sample B) exhibited only a Gaussian peak emission at a wavelength of approximately 272 nm.<br/></div> &copy; 2021, CC BY.
