Two-dimensional InGaN/GaN multiple-quantum-wells (MQW) LED structure was nanotextured into quasi-one-dimensional nanowires (NWs) with different average diameters with a combination approach of Ni nanoislands as mask + dry etching. Such nanotexturing bring out several appealing effects including deeper localization of carriers and significant improvement in quantum efficiency (e.g., from 4.76% of the planar MQW structure to 12.5% of the 160 nm MQW NWs) of light emission in the whole interested temperature range from 4 K to 300 K. With the aid of localized-state ensemble (LSE) luminescence model, the photoluminescence spectra of the samples are quantitatively interpreted in the entire temperature range. In terms of distinctive temperature dependence of photoluminescence from these samples, a concept of “negative” thermal activation energy is tentatively proposed for the MQW NWs samples. These findings could lead to a deeper insight into the physical nature of localization and luminescence mechanism of excitons in InGaN/GaN nanowires.
