The reasons and mechanisms of Change of the quantum efficiency and other characteristics of InGaN/GaN in various operation conditions are actively being investigated. The results of experimental research of changes of the external quantum efficiency of low-power InGaN/GaN green LEDS with the quantum well in the space charge region (SCR) of heterostructures and without quantum well in the process of accelerated tests have been presented. It has been found that after 8 hrs of testing at the temperature of 300 K in the pulsed mode with the current pulse amplitude of 0.5 A, the pulse duration of 100 microseconds and the relative pulse duration of 100 the external quantum efficiency of all LEDs without quantum wells has increased, while the external quantum efficiency of LEDs with quantum well has decreased in the range of operating currents. It has been shown that at low injection levels the radiation power of LEDs without the quantum well is determined by the recombination processes by the mechanism of Shockley-Reed-Hall and with the quantum well - by the tunnel-recombination processes. The current training in the accelerated pulse mode of green light diodes based on the InGaN/GaN during 4 hours can be used as a technological operation to stabilize light-technical characteristics of these diodes and to reveal potentially unreliable items in large scale production conditions.
