▎ 摘　　要

GaN-based nanorod light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with multilayer graphene (MLG) transparent electrodes have been fabricated. Two types of nano-LEDs with graphene on and under the metal pads are fabricated and their performances are investigated. And LEDs with graphene on the metal-pads exhibiting lower forward voltage and higher electroluminescence intensity are obtained. Using scanning electron microscope and Raman spectroscopy, we have demonstrated that graphene transferred after the metal deposition remains intact and has much less damages than graphene under the metal during the fabrication of LEDs with nanorods.
