Research Abstract |
We have succeeded in the growth of Eu-doped GaN layer grown by organometallic vapor phase epitaxy and demonstrated the first operation of current-injected red emission from a Eu-doped GaN LED. We have found strong influence of growth temperature and pressure on Eu luminescence intensity. As a result, improved light output power of 17 μW was achieved.
