Abstract
We have studied the effect of surface plasmon polariton (SPP) and localized surface plasmon (LSP) on the emission of semi-polar InGaN/GaN light emitting diode (LED) with multi-quantum wells structure. From the photoluminescence (PL) measurement at room temperature, spectrally-integrated enhancements of semi-polar SPP LEDs with 15 and 40-nm-thick Ag films were 1.7 and 2.9, respectively. The absorbance peak of Ag nanoparticles was red-shifted as diameter of Ag nanoparticles increases. However, the absorbance peak of Au nanoparticles was not related with their diameters. Spectrally-integrated enhancement of semi-polar LSP LED with 250-nm-diameter Ag nanoparticles was shown to 1.3. These results showed that the blue emission of semi-polar InGaN/GaN LED can be improved by SPP and LSP.
