What is Effect of deep-level states on current–voltage characteristics and electroluminescence of blue and UV light-emitting diodes about?

## Abstract Current–voltage (__I__–__V__) characteristics and electroluminescence spectra of several ultraviolet and blue light‐emitting diodes (LEDs) emitting nominally at 380, 400, 430, and 468 nm were studied. These diodes exhibited an Ohmic regime at low forward biases; then the current increased sharply as bias increased. Several changes in the slope of logarithmic __I__–__V__ plots indicated that, __I__ ∝ __V__^__x__^. These changes in the slope were interpreted as single‐carrier space‐charge‐limited (SCL) transport across the diode active region. As bias increased the deep states were filled and for the 400‐ and 468‐nm diodes ideality factors of ∼2 were obtained. This indicated that, as bias increased the transport mechanism changed from SCL conduction to recombination of injected carriers in the space‐charge region. For the 380‐ and 430‐nm diodes, ideality factors >>2 were obtained, although the observed electroluminescence spectrum indicated substantial radiative recombination. For the diode emitting at 430 nm, several peaks including the major peak at ∼424 nm appeared to have resulted from transitions between the conduction‐band edge and deep states, identified from the _
