Abstract :
We report the first measurements of the spectrally resolved absolute internal luminescence quantum efficiency and surface recombination velocity of an InGaN-GaN multiquantum well (MQW) structures. The absolute external quantum efficiency is measured by referencing the measured photoluminescence (PL) from the sample with the reading measured from the laser off of the perfect 100% white lambertian reflector
