title = "Flip-chip blue LEDs grown on (20(2)over-bar1) bulk GaN substrates utilizing photoelectrochemical etching for substrate removal",
abstract = "We demonstrate a 440nm emitting flip-chip GaN LED utilizing photoelectrochemical (PEC) etching for substrate removal. The device was flip-chipbonded to a thermally conductive silicon carbide substrate, which allowed for CW operation at current densities up to 200A/cm2 with minimal thermal droop. The PEC etch provided a damage-free method of removing substrates and could allow for substrate reuse. The epitaxially defined etch also exposed a highly doped n-contact layer, which contributed to the low operating voltage of 3.74V at 400A/cm2 and a peak wall plug efficiency (WPE) of 7%.",
