The contrast and the principal axis of the emission diagrams for 2 nm‐thick (Al,Ga)N QWs grown for aluminum compositions between 40% and 90% are studied. The light is emitted on the edge of the QWs at wavelengths going from 280 nm down to 209 nm. The emission diagram, a change from oblate to prolate with respect to the in‐plane orientation, for an aluminum composition is found to occur around 72%, that is, at an emission wavelength of about 235 nm. The orientations and shapes of the edge‐emission diagrams indicate that the fluctuations of the composition of the (Al,Ga)N confining layer are deep enough for producing intravalence band mixings. This property, that acts in concert with the built‐in strain and quantum‐confined Stark effect, contributes to the anisotropy of the light emission when the aluminum composition reaches 60–70%, that is, for an emission wavelength of 260–235 nm. %G English %2 https://hal.science/hal-04795744v1/document %2 https://hal.science/hal-04795744v1/file/PSSA-IBANEZ.pdf %L hal-04795744 %U https://hal.science/hal-04795744 %~ UNICE %~ CNRS %~ L2C %~ UNIV-MONTPELLIER %~ UNIV-COTEDAZUR %~ ANR %~ CRHEA %~ UM-2015-2021 %~ UM-EPE
