Abstract
Since III-nitride semiconductor-based ultraviolet (UV) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are compact and efficient, they can be suggested as a substitute for conventional arc-lamps. However, reported UV LEDs focused on a narrow range of UV spectrum contrary to conventional arc-lamps. Here, we introduce GaN quantum dots (QDs) grown on different facets of hexagonal truncated pyramid structures on a conventional sapphire substrate. These structures include semipolar facets as well as a polar facet, which obtain intrinsically different piezoelectric fields and growth rates of QDs. Consequently, we demonstrated a plateau-like broadband UV emitter ranging from UV-C to UV-A from the GaN QDs.
