The characteristics of nitride-based blue light-emitting diodes(LEDs) with AlGaN composition-graded barriers are analyzed numerically.The carrier concentrations in the quantum wells(QWs),the energy band diagrams,the electrostatic fields,and the light output power are investigated by APSYS software.The simulation results show that the LED with AlGaN composition-graded barriers has a better performance than its AlGaN/InGaN counterpart owing to the increase of hole injection and the enhancement of electron confinement.The simulation results also suggest that the output power is enhanced significantly and the efficiency droop is markedly improved when the AlGaN barriers are replaced by AlGaN composition-graded barriers.
