Experimental investigation of high-speed WDM-visible light communication using blue, green, and red InGaN µLEDs

Micro-light-emitting diodes (µLEDs) hold significant promise for applications in displays and visible light communication (VLC). This study substantiates the viability of a wavelength division multiplexing (WDM)-VLC system using InGaN blue, green, and red µLED devices. The devices exhibited notable color stability and high modulation bandwidth due to the weakly polarized electric field in the blue and green semipolar devices and the stress-optimized structure in the red device. The aggregated data rate reached 11.14 Gbps. Moreover, the blue, green, and red InGaN µLEDs exhibited a wide color gamut, encompassing 119.4% of the NTSC and 89.2% of the Rec. 2020 standards, affirming the potential of blue, green, and red InGaN µLEDs for applications in full-color display and WDM-VLC systems.
