Abstract:Thelowemission effciencyofInGaN-basedredLEDsremainsacriticalbottleneck forrealizing ful-color nitride-based RGB Micro-LED displays.Enhancing carrierconfinement and crystalline qualityin the quantum well(QW)active region is essential toimproving optical performance.Here,we propose anN-polar InGaN-based red LED featuring an n -ln0.1Ga0.9N/GaN superlattice electron deceleration layer(EDL)while removing the conventional p-AlGaNelectronblocking layer(EBL).Numericalsimulations show thatthesuperlaticeEDLeffectively reduces electron thermal velocity and increases electron capture eficiency within the QWs.Meanwhile,the design maintains ahigh electron confinementbarrierand lowers the hole injection barrier,improving holecapture efficiency and suppressng electron overflow.Compared with areference N-polar InGaN based red LED with a p-AlGaN EBL, the proposed device achieves a 16% increase in peak internal quantum efficiency and a 32% rise in optical output power.Furthermore,eliminating the p-AlGaN EBL avoids QW crystal degradation caused by high-temperature AlGaN growth,offering a promising route toward high-efficiency InGaN-based red Micro-LEDs.
