Ultra-bright green InGaN micro-LEDs with brightness over 10M nits

An investigation of electrical and optical properties of InGaN micro-scale light-emitting diodes (micro-LEDs) emitting at similar to 530 nm is carried out, with sizes of 80, 150, and 200 mu m. The ITO as a current spreading layer (CSL) provides excellent device performance. Over 10% external quantum efficiency (EQE) and wall-plug efficiency (WPE), and ultra-high brightness (> 10M nits) green micro-LEDs are realized. In addition, it is observed that better current spreading in smaller devices results in higher EQE and brightness. Superior green micro-LEDs can provide an essential guarantee for a variety of applications. (C) 2022 Optica Publishing Group under the terms of the Optica Open Access Publishing Agreement
