Abstract

Details of the fabrication and characterization of hybrid green light emitting diodes, composed of n -ZnO/(InGaN/GaN) multi-quantum-wells/ p -GaN on AlN/sapphire, are reported. Scanning electron microscope, atomic force microscopy, high resolution x-ray diffraction, and photoluminescence were used to study the hybrid device. The effects of solvents, annealing, and etching on n -ZnO are discussed. Successful hybridization of ZnO and (In)GaN into a green light emitting diode was realized.
