    摘要: An ultraviolet C light-emitting diode including an n-type semiconductor layer, a p-type semiconductor layer, an active layer, a two-dimensional hole gas (2DHG) inducing layer, and an electron blocking layer is provided. The active layer is disposed between the n-type semiconductor layer and the p-type semiconductor layer, wherein a wavelength of a maximum peak of a spectrum emitted by the active layer ranges from 230 nm to 280 nm. The two-dimensional hole gas (2DHG) inducing layer is disposed between the active layer and the p-type semiconductor layer. A concentration of magnesium in the 2DHG inducing layer is less than 1017 atoms/cm3. The electron blocking layer is disposed between the p-type semiconductor layer and the 2DHG inducing layer. A concentration of magnesium in a part of the electron blocking layer adjacent to the 2DHG inducing layer is greater than 1019 atoms/cm3.
