Development of substrate-removal-free vertical ultraviolet light-emitting diode (RefV-LED)

A vertical ultraviolet (UV) light-emitting diode (LED) that does not require substrate removal is developed. Spontaneous via holes are formed in n-AlN layer epitaxially grown on a high conductive n+Si substrate and the injected current flows directly from the p-electrode to high doped n+ Si substrat...
