AlInP has a very large band gap (1.3~2.4eV) and high transparency.

This letter demonstrates moth-eye antireflection coatings fabricated by
UV-nanoimprint lithography (NIL) on AlInP/GaAs structure.
The yield is approximately 95% over an 4 cm^2 consisted of 4.4x1e9 nanocones.

Simulation & Measurement
A :30/170/370 nm (top diameter/base diameter/height)
B : 50/220/370 nm
C : 80/300/440 nm
Reference : 1 um AlInP
Arithmetic average reflectivities
The simulated values are lower than the measured ones partly due to :
 The imperfect model of the dielectric function.
 The roughness of the etched surfaces.
 The silver mirror used as a reference in the measurements.


An average reflectivity of 2.7% was achieved for
wide spectral range 450–1650 nm.

Using PL measurements, we have shown that the
surface recombination and patterning induced losses
are low.
