High temperature annealing (HTA) of AlN layers reduces the threading dislocation density of such layers on sapphire substrates below 109 cm−2 enabling UVC-LEDs with improved efficiencies. However, the HTA AlN-layers are under high compressive strain after cooling down, which can lead to strain relaxation and defect formation during further LED heterostructure growth. The in-plane lattice constant can be increased by growing a Si-doped AlN layer on HTA-AlN. In this work we investigate the influence of such an AlN:Si-layer on the growth of UVC-LEDs emitting at 265nm on AlN/sapphire substrates with silicon doped as well as undoped AlN layer and different sapphire offcut angles (0.1∘, 0.2∘, 0.5∘). We will discuss the morphology as well as the strain state of AlN and AlGaN layers as well as the electro-optical properties of multi quantum-well (MQW) and LED structures.
