In this report, we locally modulate the doping type in the  n -AlGaN layer by proposing n-AlGaN/p-AlGaN/n-AlGaN (NPN-AlGaN)-structured current spreading layer for AlGaN-based deep ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (DUV LEDs). After inserting a thin p-AlGaN layer into the n-AlGaN electron supplier layer, a conduction band barrier can be generated in the  n -type electron supplier layer, which enables the modulation of the lateral current distribution in the p-type hole supplier layer for DUV LEDs. Additionally, according to our studies, the Mg doping concentration, the thickness, the AlN composition for the p-AlGaN insertion layer and the NPN-AlGaN junction number are found to have a great influence on the current spreading effect. A properly designed NPN-AlGaN current spreading layer can improve the optical output power, external quantum efficiency (EQE), and the wall-plug efficiency (WPE) for DUV LEDs.
