Abstract
The demand for on-chip multifunctional optoelectronic systems is increasing in today’s Internet of Things era. III-nitride quantum well diodes (QWDs) can transmit and receive information through visible light and can be used as both light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and photodetectors (PDs). Spectral emission–detection overlap gives the III-nitride QWD an intriguing capability to detect and modulate light emitted by itself. In this paper, the coexistence of light emission and detection in a III-nitride QWD is experimentally demonstrated, and a wireless video communication system through light is established. When approximately biasing and illuminating at the same time, the III-nitride QWD can achieve light emission and detection simultaneously. This work provides a foundation for the development of multifunctional III-nitride QWDs and the realization of device-to-device data communication.
