Graphene network on indium tin oxide nanodot nodes for transparent and current spreading electrode in InGaN/GaN light emitting diode

Abstract

We report a device that combines indium tin oxide (ITO) nanodot nodes with two-dimensional chemically converted graphene (CCG) films to yield a GaN-based light emitting diode (LED) with interesting characteristics for transparent and current spreading electrodes for the potential use in the ultraviolet region. The current-voltage characteristics and electroluminescence output power performance showed that CCG network on ITO nanodot nodes operated as a transparent and current spreading electrode in LED devices. © 2011 American Institute of Physics.
