LIGHT EMITTING DIODE(LED)

CONCEPTS:
Introduction
Working of LED

INTRODUCTION:

The light-emitting diode is a P-N junction diode,


which consists of two leads and a semiconductor
light source. It activates by applying suitable
voltages across its leads. Then it emits light
energy in the form of photons and determines
the color of this light by the band gap of the
semiconductor material. We can produce light
energy through the recombination of electrons
and electron holes in this device. This process is
referred to as the electroluminescence process.
This process was stated in the twentieth century
for solid-state material. When it reaches room
temperature, it emits light energy.
At the beginning, the infrared light-emitting diode
was developed, and its light intensity was low, but
it is still frequently used in a variety of consumer
electronics circuits, such as remote controls.
Different sizes of light- emitting diodes are
available on the market, from
1mm2 to onward. One of the light-emitting diodes

Working:
Like an ordinary diode, the LED diode works
when it is forward biased. In this case, the n-
type semiconductor is heavily doped than the p-
type forming the p-n junction. When it is forward
biased, the potential barrier gets reduced and
the electrons and holes combine at the depletion
layer (or active layer), light or photons are
emitted or radiated in all directions. A typical
figure blow showing light emission due electron-
hole pair combining on
forward
biasing. The emission of photons in
an LED is explained by the energy band theory of solids,
which dictates that light emission depends on the material’s
band gap being direct or indirect. Those semiconductor
materials which have a direct band gap are the ones that emit
photons. In a direct bandgap material, the bottom of the
energy level of conduction band lies directly above the
topmost energy level of the valence band on the Energy vs
Momentum (wave vector ‘k’) diagram.
