Abstract
A study on improved light extraction efficiency (LEE) of LEDs with photonic crystals formed by holographic lithography (HL) was present. The propagation and extraction of light in LEDs were simulated using FDTD method for LED structures with top HL PC and embedded HL PC respectively. By optimizing the design parameters of the HL PC, the best value of 88.3% enhancement of LEE were obtained. Result also revealed that the scattering and diffraction of photonic lattices play a more important role in the increased light extraction of HL PC LEDs than photonic band gap effects.
