A nano light emitting device (LED) has been developed and is presented. This new LED, entitled LENS (Light Emitting Nano-pixel Structure), is a new nano-pixel structure designed to enable high-resolution display. It serves as the building block of a more complex structure called LENA (Light Emitting Nano-pixel Array), dedicated to nano-display applications, such as augmented and virtual reality (AVR). Previously designed and studied with a platform for ray tracing optimization, a complementary simulations study was performed using the Comsol Multi-Physics Platform in order to check for opto-electronics performance and physical nanoscale investigations. In addition to the physical complementary analysis, several studies have focused on optimizations: optimal geometry for a pixel (cylindrical or conical shape), and wavelength adaptation (optical communication). In addition to numerical simulation results, an analytical model has been developed. This new device holds the potential to enhance the light efficiency for military, professional and consumer applications, and can serve as a game changer in the world of nano-displays with high resolution.
