Modulation of hole-injection in GaInN-light emitting triodes and its effect on carrier recombination behavior

The effects of the hole injection modulated by using a three-terminal GaInN-based light emitter, light-emitting triode (LET), on carrier recombination behavior and efficiency droop are investigated. It was found that the lateral electric field created by applying voltage bias between the two anodes...
