AlGaN light emitting diodes (LEDs) emitting in the deep ultraviolet (DUV) range typically suffer from poor light extraction efficiency (LEE). In this study, we determine the effects of nanostructure height, diameter, and emission wavelength on LEE. Changes to device morphology influencing surface to volume ratio (SVR) are studied in order to optimize device dimensions to maximize LEE. Simulations show improvements in LEE of up to 300% and 60% for structures with increased height and decreased diameter respectively, which is predicted for higher SVR structures. These results shows that engineering of nanostructure SVR could be used to improve DUV LED efficiency.
