Abstract: Group III nitride based light emitting diode (LED) structures include multiple quantum wells with barrier-well units that include III nitride interface layers. Each interface layer may have a thickness of no greater than about 30% of an adjacent well layer, and a comparatively low concentration of indium or aluminum. One or more interface layers may be present in a barrier-well unit. Multiple barrier-well units having different properties may be provided in a single active region.

Abstract: A solid state light emitting device includes a solid state light emitter and a lumiphoric material that are selected for use with one another to provide light emissions with improved (i.e., reduced) thermal droop A solid state emitter having a short peak emission wavelength (e.g., in a visible range at or below 440 nm) seemingly less than optimal at room temperature for use with a particular lumiphor can trigger more efficient stimulation of lumiphor emissions at high temperatures. Enhanced epitaxial structures also inhibit decrease of radiant flux by LEDs at elevated temperatures.
