摘要:
The present invention provides a method for producing a group III nitride compound semiconductor substrate including: (a) forming a first semiconductor film over a substrate, the first semiconductor film made of a first group III nitride compound semiconductor and provided with a step; (b) forming a second semiconductor film made of a second group III nitride compound semiconductor having a different thermal expansion coefficient from that of the first group III nitride compound semiconductor on the first semiconductor film; and (c) cooling the substrate and separating the second semiconductor film from the first semiconductor film. Thus, a large-area group III nitride compound semiconductor substrate can be produced in high yields and with high reproducibility.

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.sub.0.2 Ga.sub.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.
摘要:
A semiconductor laser device comprises, on top of an active layer, an n-type cladding layer of Alx1Ga1−x1As and a p-type cladding layer of (AlxGa1−x)yIn1−yP 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 semiconductor laser has a first conduction-type cladding layer, an active layer, and a second conduction-type cladding layer formed on a first conduction-type semiconductor substrate. The second conduction-type cladding layer has a mesa-type stripe-shaped recessed portion in at least four spots, so as to form a central ridge portion, which constitutes a ridge-type current confinement portion, and two or more lateral ridge portions, which are positioned on both sides of the central ridge portion, have a height larger than to that of the central ridge portion, and include the second conduction-type cladding layer. An insulation film with a lower refractive index than the second conduction-type cladding layer is formed in a pair of stripes disposed respectively in the regions from the side surface of the second conduction-type cladding layer on both side surfaces of the central ridge portion toward the outside. The insulation film is not formed on the central ridge portion.
