摘要: A diode comprises nanowires compositionally graded along their lengths with an active region doped with gadolinium sandwiched between first and second compositionally graded AlxGa1-xN nanowire regions. The first graded AlxGa1-xN nanowire region is graded from gallium-rich to aluminum-rich with the compositional grading defining n-type polarization doping and the aluminum-rich end proximate the active region. The second graded AlxGa1-xN nanowire region is graded from aluminum-rich to gallium-rich with the compositional grading defining p-type polarization doping and with the aluminum rich end proximate the active region. The active region may include a GdN layer sandwiched between AlN layers, or an Al1-yGdyN layer with y≧0.5. The nanowires may be disposed on a silicon substrate having a GaN surface, with the gallium-rich end of the first graded AlxGa1-xN nanowire region proximate to the GaN surface, and a semitransparent electrical contact disposed on the gallium-rich end of the second graded AlxGa1-xN nanowire region.

摘要: A nanowire comprises a polar semiconductor material that is compositionally graded along the nanowire from a first end to a second end to define a polarization doping profile along the nanowire from the first end to the second end. The polar semiconductor material may comprise a group IH-nitride semiconductor, such as an alloy of GaN and AlN, or an alloy of GaN and InN. Such nanowires may be formed by nucleating the first ends on a substrate, growing the nanowires by depositing polar semiconductor material on the nucleated first ends on a selected growth face, and compositionally grading the nanowires during growth to impart the polarization doping. The direction of the compositional grading may be reversed during the growing of the nanowires to reverse the type of the imparted polarization doping. In some embodiments, the reversing forms n/p or p/n junctions in the nanowires.
