Piezo‐Phototronic Effect Controlled Dual‐Channel Visible light Communication (PVLC) Using InGaN/GaN Multiquantum Well Nanopillars

Visible light communication (VLC) simultaneously provides illumination and communication via light emitting diodes (LEDs). Keeping a low bit error rate is essential to communication quality, and holding a stable brightness level is pivotal for illumination function. For the first time, a piezo‐phototronic effect controlled visible light communication (PVLC) system based on InGaN/GaN multiquantum wells nanopillars is demonstrated, in which the information is coded by mechanical straining. This approach of force coding is also instrumental to avoid LED blinks, which has less impact on illumination and is much safer to eyes than electrical on/off VLC. The two‐channel transmission mode of the system here shows great superiority in error self‐validation and error self‐elimination in comparison to VLC. This two‐channel PVLC system provides a suitable way to carry out noncontact, reliable communication under complex circumstances.
