- The external quantum efficiency (EQE) enhancement of different sized GaN micro-light-emitting diodes (μLEDs) by using localized surface plasmons (LSPs) have been studied. Silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) are attached to the sidewalls of μLEDs by spin-coating so as to be effectively coupled with the multiple quantum well (MQW) of μLEDs and generate the LSPs. In the μLEDs with 20 × 20 μm2 large mesas, the LSPs can effectively inhibit the efficiency droop. Compared to the μLED samples without the LSPs coupling, the EQE has been enhanced by about 8% at a high current density of 20,000 A/cm2. This work confirms the effectiveness of the LSPs technology in improving the μLED performances, which is originally practiced only on the basal faces of conventional LEDs.

- In this study, we propose an algorithm that uses an improved Minimum Spanning Tree algorithm and a modified Canny edge detector to segment images that contain a considerable amount of noises. First, we use our modified Canny operator to pre-process an image, and record the obtained object boundary information; then, we apply the improved Minimum Spanning Tree algorithm to associate the above information with boundary points in order to separate edges into two classes in the image, namely the inner and boundary regions. In particular, Minimum Spanning Tree algorithm is improved by using Fractional differential and combining the functions of the intra-regional and inter-regional differences with a function for edge weights. Based on the experimental results, compared with the other four exiting algorithms, the new algorithm has the higher accuracy and the better effect for noised image segmentation.

- Based on transfer printing technology, micro-LED pixels can be transferred to different types and sizes of driving substrates to realize displays with different application scenarios. To achieve a successful transfer, GaN-based micro-LEDs first need to be separated from the original epitaxial substrate. Here, micro-LED pixels (each size 25 μm × 30 μm) on the sapphire substrate were transferred to a flexible semiconductor wafer processing (SWP) tape that is strongly sticky by conventional laser lift-off (LLO) techniques. The pixels on the SWP tape were then transferred by using a sacrificial layer of non-crosslinked oligomeric polystyrene (PS) film onto the intermediate and rigid substrate (IRS) with weak and tunable adhesion by thiol (-SH) modification. The electrode of the micro-LED is Au metal, which forms Au-S bonds with the surface of the IRS to fix the pixels. The rigid substrate helps ensure that the pixel spacing is almost unchanged during the stamp transfer process, and the weak and tunable adhesion facilitates the pixels being picked up by the stamp. The experimental results demonstrate that the pixels can be efficiently transferred to the IRS by LLO and sacrificial layer-assistance, which will provide the possibility of achieving the further transfer of pixels to different types and sizes of driving substrates by a suitable transfer stamp. The transfer process details are discussed, which can provide insights into the transfer of micro-nano devices through polymer sacrificial layers.

- Optoelectronic devices, such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs), based on GaN-based semiconductor compounds are widely used for their advantages of long life, high reliability, and low energy consumption. The persistent challenge is integrating LED with transistors to achieve smaller size, lighter weight, higher speed, and more reliable optoelectronic integrated circuits. Here, we report monolithically and vertically integrated LED-on-FET devices fabricated on a novel GaN epitaxial structure. The designed device structure and fabrication process are simple. It also eliminates the extra area occupied by the transistor, and the shared n-GaN layer between the LED and FET reduces interconnect resistance and improves reliability. The measured threshold voltage (V-Th) of the LED-on-FET device is extrapolated as 3.9 V at the voltage (V-DD) of 5 V, and V-Th decreases with the increase of V-DD . More importantly, the gate voltage (V-GS) shows good performance in modulated electroluminescence (EL) intensity and switching capability of the LED. The integrated LED efficiently emits light modulation with a wavelength of 440 nm at V-DD= 9 V and V-GS=4-9 V (step = 1 V), which are necessary for devices in applications, such as displays and smart lighting. This epitaxy structure and integration scheme is promising in achieving large-scale optoelectronic integrated circuits, such as the next-generation micro-LED and nano-LED with super compact integrated drivers.
