We try to incorporate small amounts of boron into AlGaN to reduce the lattice mismatch to AlN. This enables strain management in the material system and should help to reduce the quantum confined Stark effect in quantum well structures, hence increasing the external quantum efficiencies of UV-LEDs. However, strain reduction can also have negative impact. By inverting the valence band order and thus switching the emission from TE to TM Mode. In the ternary compound AlGaN, this polarisation switching occurs at a specific composition, which is strongly strain dependent. For high Al content, for which the TM-polarisation is predominant, higher strain enhances TE polarisation. To study the influence of boron on strain and polarisation, mainly optical spectroscopy and X-Ray diffractometry were used, alongside with other characterisation methods. Even for reduced strain, enhanced TE polarisation was observed for boron containing samples.
