Abstract

Edge-emitting LEDs (ELEDs) possess a high brightness, a high coupling efficiency/tolerance to optical fibres compared with surface-emitting LEDs; whilst a simple structure for fabrication with a low cost compared with their coherent counterparts (i.e., lasers). Therefore, it is a good candidate for short-reach optical communications, optic gyroscopes, gain material for external-cavity lasers, and photonic integrated platforms. Recent breakthrough in InAs quantum-dot (QD) grown on various substrates with emission wavelength in O-band range enables the development of high-brightness ELEDs, including super-luminescent LEDs. In order to efficiently couple the emitting light out of an ELED, an anti-reflection coating (ARC) layer is required. Ideally, the ARC layer is also expected to be a passivation layer to reduce non-radiative recombination and to enhance the device lifetime, which is especially important for the edge-coupling scheme. In this case, the materials are requested to have both the desired refractive index and correct chemical property.
