Introduction• Conventional p-type electron- blocking layer (EBL) can be used a
solution to reduce the electron leakage current. However, the p-type EBL also impeded the injection of holes into the active region.
• In this paper, we study the performances of blue InGaN LEDs by using a polarization-matched n-type AlGaInN (N-AlGaInN) EBL to replace p-AlGaInN EBL, p-AlGaInN EBL and n-AlGaN EBL in the active region.

Conclusion• The simulation results show that the N-AlGaInN
EBL is a best candidate the concentration of electrons and holes within the active region of the LEDs with a N-AlGaInN EBL are more uniform, and the electron leakage current is also dramaticlly reduced.

Introduction• Recently published studies point out that the electron
confinement by a typical AlGaN EBL is not sufficiently effective to solve the efficiency droop problem. Furthermore, the use of AlGaN EBL can cause some undesired effects such as prohibiting the injection efficiency of holes into the active region.
• In this study, the characteristics of the nitride-based blue LED without an EBL are analyzed. We have discussed the advantages of the LED without an EBL, when compared with those of the similar LED with an AlGaN HBL. We have also investigated the optical and electrical properties of the LEDs with undoped or p-type doped GaN barriers when no EBL is used.

Conclusion The use of the p-type barriers can effectively
suppress the spillover of electrons out of the active region, as well as increase the hole concentration. The insertion of the HBL can enhance the hole confinement. the efficiency droop of the new structure is markedly improved.
