GaN-based optoelectronic devices have been a topic of intense research due to the wide range of applications, including short wavelength laser diodes for next generation digital versatile disk (DVD), blue/green light emitting diodes for large scale full-color displays and solid state lighting as, ultraviolet light emitting diodes for biology, chemistry and environmental protection and photodetectors for fame and heat sensors monitor. For example, the storage capacity of GaN-based DVD is about four time higher than that of currently used GaAs-DVD. The popularly used incandescent lamp can be replaced by GaN-based solidstate lighting, which can greatly save energy and have a much longer life-time. However, due to the limits of the current technology, it is becoming more difficult to continuously improve the performance of the existing GaN-based optoelectronics. Therefore, it is very interesting to develop low dimensional GaN-based optoelectronics, such as GaN quantum dot based optoelectronic since improved performance is theoretically expected.The proposed programme undertakes a study of the formation, structure and optical properties of nitride quantum dots, and their application to optoelectroic devices: light emitting diodes, laser diodes and photodetectors in the region from ultraviolet to blue. The programme will be carried out in Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering, the University of Sheffield and will develop state-of-the-art technologies for fabrication of above mentioned GaN-based devices with highly improved performance.

由于广泛的应用，基于GAN的光电设备已成为强烈研究的主题，包括用于下一代数字多功能磁盘（DVD）的短波长激光二极管（DVD），蓝色/绿色光发射二极管，用于大规模全彩色显示器和固态照明，作为用于生物学的固定光和固定型固体照明，用于生物学和化学范围。例如，基于GAN的DVD的存储容量比当前使用的GAAS-DVD高四次。久经考验的白炽灯可以用基于GAN的SolidState照明代替，这可以大大节省能量并具有更长的寿命。但是，由于当前技术的限制，不断提高现有基于GAN的光电子的性能变得越来越困难。因此，开发基于GAN的低维光电学，例如基于GAN量子点的光电子，因为改善性能是从理论上预期的，这是非常有趣的。拟议的计划对硝酸盐量子点的形成，结构和光学特性进行了研究，以及对光电设备的应用和光电仪的应用：紫外线至蓝色。该计划将在谢菲尔德大学的电子和电气工程系中进行，并将开发最先进的技术，用于制造上述基于GAN的设备，具有高度改进的性能。
