Popis: We grew and processed a blue/green two-wavelength light-emitting diode (LED) based on the mixture of two kinds of quantum wells (QW) in epitaxial growth. The X-ray diffraction and photoluminescence measurements indicated that the crystalline structure and the basic optical property of individual kinds of QW are not significantly changed in the mixed growth. The relative electroluminescence (EL) intensity of the two colors depends on the injection current level, which controls the hole concentration distribution among the QWs. At low injection levels, the top green-emitting QW dominates in EL. As the injection current increases, the blue-emitting QWs beneath become dominating. We also coated CdSe-ZnS nanocrystals on the top of the two-wavelength LED for converting blue photons into red light. With the coating of such nanocrystals, the device emits blue, green, and red lights for white light generation
