Details of the fabrication and characterization of hybrid green light emitting diodes, composed of n-ZnO/͑InGaN/GaN͒ multi-quantum-wells/p-GaN on AlN/sapphire, are reported. Scanning electron microscope, atomic force microscopy, high resolution x-ray diffraction, and photoluminescence were used to study the hybrid device. The effects of solvents, annealing, and etching on n-ZnO are discussed. Successful hybridization of ZnO and ͑In͒GaN into a green light emitting diode was realized.
