[en] Vertically integrated III-nitride nano-LEDs designed for operation in the
telecommunication-wavelength range were fabricated and tested in the (p-
GaN/InGaN/n-GaN/sapphire) material system. We found that the band edge
luminescence energy of the nano-LEDs could be engineered by their size and
by the strain interaction with the masked SiO2/GaN substrates; it depends
linearly on the structure size. The results of reliability measurements prove
that our technological process is perfectly suited for long-term operation of
the LEDs without any indication of degradation effects. The presented
technology shows strong potential for future low energy consumption
optoelectronics.
