Laburpena

A model to explain the current dependence of the external quantum efficiency of GaAs LEDs is presented. First, this efficiency increases with the current due to the relative increase of the diffusion current in the total current; then, it remains constant since the diffusion current becomes dominant and finally, decreases due to series resistance effects, in the absence of thermal effects.
