Y.J Kao 1 Outline • • • • • Introduction Structure Results and discussion Conclusion Reference Introduction • One of these issues relates to the intrinsic spontaneous and piezoelectric polarization effects that induce electric fields and result in degradation of LED performance. In order to overcome the polarization effects and increase the internal quantum efficiency, non-polar and semi-polar GaN growth have been proposed • However, thus far they have shown lower output power compared to that of c-plane GaN-based LEDs due to lower crystal quality, though non-polar or semi-polar GaN-based LEDs have demonstrated many advantages over polar GaN-based LEDs. 3
