We analyze the thermal behavior of a flexible nanowire (NW) light-emitting diode (LED) operated under different injection conditions. The LED is based on metal-organic vapor-phase deposition (MOCVD)-grown self-assembled InGaN/GaN NWs in a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) matrix. Despite the poor thermal conductivity of the polymer, active nitride NWs effectively dissipate heat to the substrate. Therefore, the flexible LED mounted on a copper heat sink can operate under high injection without significant overheating, while the device mounted on a plastic holder showed a 25% higher temperature for the same injected current. The efficiency of the heat dissipation by nitride NWs was further confirmed with finite-element modeling of the temperature distribution in a NW/polymer composite membrane.
我们分析了在不同注入条件下工作的柔性纳米线(NW)发光二极管(LED)的热行为。该LED基于在聚二甲基硅氧烷(PDMS)基质中通过金属有机气相沉积(MOCVD)生长的自组装InGaN/GaN纳米线。尽管聚合物的热导率较差,但活性氮化物纳米线能有效地将热量散发到基板上。因此,安装在铜散热器上的柔性LED可以在高注入条件下工作而不会出现明显过热,而安装在塑料支架上的器件在相同注入电流下温度则高出25%。通过对NW/聚合物复合膜中温度分布的有限元建模,进一步证实了氮化物纳米线的散热效率。
