ABSTRACT:
III- Nitride materials have radically changed the lighting industry allowing for the developments of high efficiency and brightness ultraviolet LED. In this paper, the characterised between electroluminescence spectra pick wavelength and QW thickness through simulations with presence on electric field. According the QCSE when electric field applied perpendicular to the QWs layers resulted in large read shifts in absorption. I have taken One Dimensional Drift Diffusion charge control solver (1D-DDCC) software for simulations that is solve Passion Schrodinger equation developed by Pro.Yuh-Renn WU of UM. This solver has many functions like- Tunnable parameters for all basic material, Hetrojunction simulation, Dopant activation energy, Eigen solve for Schrodinger equation.
