Indium gallium nitride (InGaN)-based micro-LEDs (μLEDs) are suitable for meeting ever-increasing demands for high-performance displays owing to their high efficiency, brightness and stability1,2,3,4,5. However, μLEDs have a large problem in that the external quantum efficiency (EQE) decreases with the size reduction6,7,8,9. Here we demonstrate a blue InGaN/GaN multiple quantum well (MQW) nanorod-LED (nLED) with high EQE. To overcome the size-dependent EQE reduction problem8,9, we studied the interaction between the GaN surface and the sidewall passivation layer through various analyses. Minimizing the point defects created during the passivation process is crucial to manufacturing high-performance nLEDs. Notably, the sol–gel method is advantageous for the passivation because SiO2 nanoparticles are adsorbed on the GaN surface, thereby minimizing its atomic interactions. The fabricated nLEDs showed an EQE of 20.2 ± 0.6%, the highest EQE value ever reported for the LED in the nanoscale. This work opens the way for manufacturing self-emissive nLED displays that can become an enabling technology for next-generation displays.

高效蓝色 InGaN 纳米级发光二极管

基于氮化铟镓 (InGaN) 的微型 LED (μLED) 因其高效率、亮度和稳定性而适用于满足对高性能显示器日益增长的需求1,2,3,4,5。然而,μLED 有一个很大的问题,即外部量子效率 (EQE) 会随着尺寸的减小而降低6,7,8,9。在这里,我们展示了具有高 EQE 的蓝色 InGaN/GaN 多量子阱 (MQW) 纳米棒 LED (nLED)。克服依赖于尺寸的 EQE 减少问题8,9,我们通过各种分析研究了GaN表面和侧壁钝化层之间的相互作用。最大限度地减少钝化过程中产生的点缺陷对于制造高性能 nLED 至关重要。值得注意的是,溶胶-凝胶法有利于钝化,因为 SiO 2纳米颗粒吸附在 GaN 表面上,从而最大限度地减少了其原子相互作用。制造的 nLED 显示出 20.2 ± 0.6% 的 EQE,这是迄今为止报道的纳米级 LED 的最高 EQE 值。这项工作为制造自发光 nLED 显示器开辟了道路,该显示器可以成为下一代显示器的使能技术。
