摘要:
A semiconductor laser device comprises, on top of an active layer, an n-type cladding layer of Al x1 Ga 1-x1 As and a p-type cladding layer of (Al x Ga 1-x ) y In 1-y P for defining a barrier height. The p-type cladding layer for defining a barrier height contains more component elements than the n-type cladding layer. The potential difference between the conduction band edges of the p-type cladding layer for defining a barrier height and the active layer is greater than the potential difference between the conduction band edges of the n-type cladding layer and the active layer. The carriers in the active layer are prevented from overflowing into the p-type cladding layer and a material having a high thermal conductivity is used for the n-type cladding layer to prevent the phenomenon of thermal saturation, thereby providing improved optical output.
摘要:
A sapphire substrate, a buffer layer of undoped GaN and a compound semiconductor crystal layer successively formed on the sapphire substrate together form a substrate of a light emitting diode. A first cladding layer of n-type GaN, an active layer of undoped In 0.2 Ga 0.8 N and a second cladding layer successively formed on the compound semiconductor crystal layer together form a device structure of the light emitting diode. On the second cladding layer, a p-type electrode is formed, and on the first cladding layer, an n-type electrode is formed. In a part of the sapphire substrate opposing the p-type electrode, a recess having a trapezoidal section is formed, so that the thickness of an upper portion of the sapphire substrate above the recess can be substantially equal to or smaller than the thickness of the compound semiconductor crystal layer.
