Here we use off-axis electron holography combined with advanced transmission electron microscopy techniques to understand the opto-electronic properties of AlGaN tunnel junction (TJ)-light-emitting diode (LED) devices for ultraviolet emission. Four identical AlGaN LED devices emitting at 290 nm have been grown by metal–organic chemical vapour...

Abstract It is shown that substrate pixelisation before epitaxial growth can significantly impact the emission color of semiconductor heterostructures. The wavelength emission from In x Ga 1−x N/GaN quantum wells can be shifted from blue to yellow simply by reducing the mesa size from 90 × 90 µm 2 to 10 × 10 µm 2 of the patterned silicon used...
