A distributed feedback structure includes a substrate material. An active layer has an alloy including at least one of aluminum, gallium, indium, and nitrogen. A first cladding, having an alloy including at least one of the aluminum, the gallium, the indium, and the nitrogen, is on a first side of the active layer. A second cladding, having an alloy including at least one of the aluminum, the gallium, the indium, and the nitrogen, is on a second side of the active layer. Periodic variations of refractive indices in at least one of the first and second claddings provide a distributed optical feedback.

An inner stripe laser diode structure for GaN laser diodes is disclosed. Inner stripe laser diode structures provide a convenient means of achieving low threshold, single mode laser diodes. The structure of an inner stripe laser diode is modified to produce lateral index guiding.
摘要:
A single layer of atoms of a selected valence is deposited between a substrate and a group III-V nitride film to improve the quality of the nitride film and of subsequently deposited nitride films on the substrate. The interlayer provides local charge neutrality at the interface, thereby promoting two-dimensional growth of the nitride film and reduced dislocation densities. When the substrate is sapphire, the interlayer should include atoms of group II elements and possibly group III elements. The structure can include a group III-V nitride buffer layer on the interlayer to further enhance the quality of the group III-V nitride films. The structures can be used in blue light emitting optoelectronic devices.
摘要:
In a III-nitride light emitting device, the device layers including the light emitting layer are grown over a template designed to reduce strain in the device, in particular in the light emitting layer. Reducing the strain in the light emitting device may improve the performance of the device. The template may expand the lattice constant in the light emitting layer over the range of lattice constants available from conventional growth templates. Strain is defined as follows: a given layer has a bulk lattice constant abulk corresponding to a lattice constant of a free standing material of a same composition as that layer and an in-plane lattice constant ain-plane corresponding to a lattice constant of that layer as grown in the structure. The amount of strain in a layer is |(ain-plane−abulk)|/abulk. In some embodiments, the strain in the light emitting layer is less than 1%.
