The temperature dependence of performance of InGaN/GaN multiple-quantum-well (MQW) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with different indium compositions in the MQWs was investigated. With increasing In composition in the MQWs, the optical performance of the LEDs at room temperature was increased due to an increase in the localized energy states caused by In composition fluctuations in MQWs. As the temperature was increased, however, the decrease in output power for LED with a higher In composition in the MQWs was higher than that of LED with a lower In composition in the MQWs. This could be due to the increased nonradiation recombination through the high defect densities in the MQWs resulted from the increased accumulation of strain between InGaN well and GaN barrier.
