  • Patent number: 7875478
    Abstract: A method for controlling the color contrast of a multi-wavelength light-emitting diode (LED) made according to the present invention is disclosed. The present invention includes at least the step of increasing the junction temperature of a multi-quantum-well LED, such that holes are distributed in a deeper quantum-well layer of the LED to increase luminous intensity of the deeper quantum-well layer, thereby controlling the relative intensity ratios of the multiple wavelengths emitted by the LED. The step of increasing junction temperature of the multi-quantum-well LED is achieved either by controlling resistance through modulating thickness of a p-type electrode layer of the LED or by modifying the mesa area size to control its relative heat radiation surface area.

  • Publication number: 20080124827
    Abstract: A method and structure for manufacturing long-wavelength visible light-emitting diode (LED) using the prestrained growth effect comprises the following steps: Growing a strained low-indium-content InGaN layer on the N-type GaN layer, and then growing a high-indium-content InGaN/GaN single- or multiple-quantum-well light-emitting structure on the low-indium-content InGaN layer to enhance the indium content of the high-indium quantum wells and hence to elongate the emission wavelength of the LED. The method of the invention can elongate emission wavelength of the LED by more than 50 nm (nanometer) such that an originally designated green LED can emit red light or orange light without influencing other electrical properties.
