Abstract
A micro-light emitting diode (micro-LED) wafer includes a substrate, an n-type semiconductor layer grown on the substrate, an active region grown on the n-type semiconductor layer and configured to emit visible light, and a p-type semiconductor layer grown on the active region. The active region includes a compressive-strained quantum well layer and compressive-strained quantum barrier layers. At least one of the p-type semiconductor layer or the n-type semiconductor layer includes a tensile-strained layer having a thickness greater than about 50 nm, such that the tensile-strained layers can counter the compressive strain of the active region, thereby reducing the overall strain and bow of the micro-LED wafer.
