We report the effect of V-shaped pit size, inverted hexagonal pits embedded in InGaN multiple quantum well, on the reverse leakage current of InGaN light-emitting diodes (LEDs). It was found that the reverse leakage current of InGaN LEDs with larger V-shaped pits is significantly reduced from 1.80 mA down to 3.84 nA at -30 V by several orders of magnitude. We claim that this improvement is accounted for increased Poole-Frenkel barrier height of carrier trapped at the deep centers via enlarged V-pit formation, consequently resulting in lower reverse current of InGaN LEDs.
