• The BInGaN/GaN QW structure shows about twice larger peak intensity than the conventional QW InGaN/GaN structure.
• The strain (−1.7 %) in the BInGaN well is shown to be reduced, compare to that (−2.0 %) in InGaN well.
• This method is more effective in improving the blue light emission, compared to methods proposed by now.
Light emission characteristics of blue BxInyGa1−x−y N/GaN quantum well (QW) structures were using the multiband effective-mass theory. The In composition (y) to give the transition wavelength of 440 nm is reduced with the inclusion of the B composition (x). We find that the spontaneous emission peak rapidly increases with increasing x. In particular, the peak intensity of the BInGaN/GaN QW structure with x = 0.18 and y = 0.008 is about twice larger than that of the conventional InGaN/GaN QW structure. This can be explained by the fact that the internal field (−0.40 MV/cm) in the BInGaN well is In greatly reduced, compared to that (−1.04 MV/cm) in the conventional InGaN well. Also, the strain (−1.7%) in the BInGaN well is shown to be reduced slightly, compare to that (−2.0%) in InGaN well. Hence, we expect that BInGaN/GaN QW structures with a reduced strain can be used as a light source with a high efficiency.
