Abstract

Piezophototronic effect is to use the piezoelectric polarization charges at a p–n junction to effectively tube the separation, recombination, and transport of charge carriers at an interface. As for LED, the piezophototronic effect is how to effectively tune the charge carrier combinations so that the light emission is maximized. This is one of the most important applications of piezophototronics. This chapter introduces the fundamental experimental design, theoretical simulations, and optimizations of various piezophototronic devices that have been fabricated.
