We investigate the role of dislocations in nitride light emitters by comparing a set of laser diodes grown on GaN substrates with their counterparts grown on sapphire. Studied structures emit light in the range 383-477nm. We observe decrease in intensity of electroluminescence for samples with low indium composition and high dislocation density. To understand this effect we measured cathodoluminescence and investigated thermal stability of chosen structures. Results show that significance of dislocation related nonradiative recombination increases for low indium content structures due to shorter diffusion path of carriers. Results of TEM and SEM indicate that edge dislocations are the main source of nonradiative recombination in our structures.
