At low temperature, the mobility of electrons and holes is improved. Due to the steep doping of Mg, the increased mobility makes the resistance of the quantum well layer increase at low temperature, and the probability of electrons leaking out of the quantum well active region is greatly reduced. The steep doping can alleviate carrier leakage, thereby solving the problem of quantum efficiency collapse of LED devices, and the luminous efficiency of LEDs is improved.
