InGaN/GaN quantum well light emitting diodes (LEDs) were grown with p-GaN layers of varied Mg impurity content. As the concentration of Mg impurity increases, the hole concentration increases up to a critical Mg impurity density and then decreases with further increase of the impurity. In this work, it is proposed that the accepters form the impurity band and that the band behavior with Mg content variation is attributed to the properties of the p-GaN layer and the p-layer effect on the I -V characteristics of LED.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
