    摘要: An erasable optical recording element is provided having a supporting plate which comprises a recording layer which has a Te-Se-Sb alloy. The ratio of the elements Te, Se and Sb in at.percent lies within a range in the Te-Se-Sb composition diagram which is bounded by a polygon having the corners Te 90 Se 8 Sb 2 - Te 78 Se 20 Sb 2 - Te 18 Se 52 Sb 30 - Te 28 Se 2 Sb 70 - Te 90 Se 2 Sb 80 . The layer thickness of the recording layer is between 80 and 300 nm. During recording the recording layer is converted by exposure to modulated laser light in the exposed places from a more ordered or crystalline state into a less ordered or amorphous state. The locally changed state can be read by means of laser light. A method of recording information is also described.

    摘要: Radiation-emitting semiconductor diodes are used as laser diodes or LEDs inter alia in optical disc systems, laser printers and bar code readers. The emission wavelength in these cases lies preferably in the visible range of the spectrum. Known diodes have an active layer (3A) and cladding layers (2,4) which comprise either AlGaAs or InAlGaP. These known diodes have the disadvantage that they do not cover a portion of the visible spectrum between 880 and 600 nm.
    A diode according to the invention is characterized in that the active layer (3A) comprises Al x Ga 1-x As and the cladding layers (2,4) comprise Al y Ga w In 1-y-w P, while the active layer (3A) has such an aluminium content (x) and such a thickness (d) that the wavelength of the photoluminescence emission lies between approximately 770 and 690 nm. This results in the availability of (laser) diodes covering the entire spectrum from approximately 880 nm to 600 nm which operate satisfactorily, supply a high power, and are easy to manufacture. Preferably, the active layer comprises a (multiple) quantum well structure of alternating quantum well layers and barrier layers, both comprising AlGaAs, but with different aluminium contents. The active layer can also comprise AlGaAsP.

    摘要: An array of semiconductor diode lasers (11, 12) is a very suitable radiation source for various applications such as optical read and write systems and laser printers. Such an array comprises a semiconductor body (10) with a substrate (1) and a layer structure provided thereon in which at least two lasers (11, 12) are formed which are mutually separated by a groove (20). In the known array, the groove (20) reaches down into the substrate (1), so that the lasers (11, 12) are electrically separated from one another.
    According to the invention, the array of lasers (11, 12) is provided with a groove (20) which is situated within the substrate (1) with a major portion (d) of its depth (D). As a result of this, the lasers (11, 12) of the array show a surprisingly low crosstalk. Preferably, the portion (d) of the groove (20) situated in the substrate (1) is at least 3 µm deep. The best results are obtained with depths (d) of approximately 10 up to at most 40 µm. In a very favourable embodiment, the device is provided at the upper side with a comparatively thick electrically and thermally well-conducting layer. In a preferred embodiment, the groove (20) is formed by reactive ion etching so that the groove (20) can be narrow and deep and the lasers (11, 12) will lie close together. A plasma comprising SiCl₄, Ar and CH₄ forms a particularly suitable etchant for lasers (11, 12) in the InGaP/InAlGaP material system.
