Solid State Lighting Core Technologies - Area of Interest 1: Area of Interest 1: Internal Quantum Efficiency (IQE) (DE-PS26-07NT43130-01) In order to meet the DOE luminous efficacy goals by 2015, more research is required in the area of internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of LED devices. The DOE goal for red, green and blue LEDs is 90% IQE by 2015. Research in IQE benefits both color mixing and phosphor converted LED white-light system approaches. Improvements in the IQE across the visible spectrum will improve the efficiency and color rendering for the color mixed approach. Whereas, enhancing the IQE in blue, violet, and near ultra-violet spectrum will improve the efficiency for the phosphor converted approach. Research is solicited for the improvement in the IQE of LEDs that emit light at wavelengths between 380 nm and 600 nm. Applications are sought that specifically address the improvement of IQE through the epitaxial process. This includes, but is not limited to, bandgap engineering of the active region, novel growth structures, quaternary materials, novel alloys, the use of nanostructures within the active region, epitaxial growth of alternative crystal orientations, and study/control of the role of indium in the active region. Successful applicants must address IQE improvements beyond the current levels in solid-state lighting, which are 20% for Green and 60% for Blue. Preference will be given to projects that demonstrate the highest potential for improvement from current levels. IQE targets for a three year project should exceed 40% for Green, and 70-80% for Blue LEDs. Demonstrable and quantifiable improvements in the IQE are suggested milestones for proposals to this approach.
