Which mechanism causes reduced LED efficiency if gallium nitride contains dislocations?

💡 Explanation

Non-radiative electron-hole recombination due to the Shockley-Read-Hall mechanism causes a loss of energy as heat rather than light because dislocations introduce energy states within the band gap; therefore the LED weakens rather than emits brightly under sustained high current or other defects activate instead.
