Abstract
A green light-emitting diode (LED) was fabricated using self-assembled In-rich InGaN quantum dots (QDs). The photoluminescence studies showed that the QDs provide thermally stable deeply localized recombination sites for carriers with negligibly small piezoelectric field. The electroluminescence spectra of the LED showed a peak in the green spectral range and the dominant peak was blueshifted with increasing injection current due to the distribution of depth of the potential wells of QDs. The output power of the LED increased with increasing injection current, indicating that the potential wells are thermally stable and deeply localized in the QDs.
