Abstract:
AlGaN multiple-quantum-well diode-based solar-blind ultraviolet emission-detection monolithic integration system shows great application value due to its advantages of multifunctionality, secure communication, and anti-interference ability. To reduce the lateral optical propagation loss and improve the emitting light detection efficiency, we have proposed a concentric ring-circle configuration for the system, where the out-ring light-emitting diode is the emitter at 253 and 267 nm, and the inner-circle detector is the receiver. The out-ring light-emitting diode exhibits about twice the injection current at the same bias and slightly higher light output power at the same current due to better current spreading and sidewall light extraction compared to the conventional square–square configuration. Simultaneously, the concentric inner-circle detector maximizes the collection of the emitted light flux. Under the emission-detection mode for the monolithic integration system, compared to the conventional square–square configuration, the concentric ring-circle design presents an improvement in the ratio of emitter injection current to detector output photocurrent and higher output signal amplitude under the same transmission work mode, demonstrating the improved system energy and coupling efficiency. This design provides a potential approach to achieve low power consumption and high bandwidth in the monolithic integrated optoelectronic chips.
