Fully transparent metal organic chemical vapor deposition-grown cascaded InGaN micro-light-emitting diodes with independent junction control

In this work, we present fully transparent metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD)-grown InGaN cascaded micro-light-emitting diodes (µLEDs) with independent junction control. The cascaded µLEDs consisted of a blue emitting diode, a tunnel junction (TJ), a green emitting diode, and a TJ, without using any conductive oxide layer. We can control the injection of carriers into blue, green, and blue/green junctions in the same device independently, which show high optical and electrical performance. The forward voltage (V f ) at 20 A/cm 2 for the TJ blue µLEDs and TJ green µLEDs is 4.06 and 3.13 V, respectively. These results demonstrate the efficient TJs and fully activated p-type GaN in the cascaded µLEDs. Such demonstration shows the important application of TJs for the integration of µLEDs with multiple color emissions.
