초록

A SPICE-based 3-dimensional circuit model of Light-Emitting Diode(LED) was modified include the reverse breakdown properties. The new model is found to be accurate to study the failure mechanisms of LEDs under electrostatic discharge (ESD) and electronic overstress (EOS). It was found that the permanent damages under heavy reverse stress is mainly due to the high electric field strength in P-GaN layer.
