摘要:
A method for fabricating a semi-polar III-nitride substrate for semi-polar III-nitride device layers, comprising providing a vicinal surface of the III-nitride substrate, so that growth of relaxed heteroepitaxial III-nitride device layers on the vicinal surface compensates for epilayer tilt of the III-nitride device layers caused by one or more misfit dislocations at one or more heterointerfaces between the device layers.
摘要:
A III-nitride edge-emitting laser diode is formed on a surface of a III-nitride substrate having a semipolar orientation, wherein the III-nitride substrate is cleaved by creating a cleavage line along a direction substantially perpendicular to a nonpolar orientation of the III-nitride substrate, and then applying force along the cleavage line to create one or more cleaved facets of the III-nitride substrate, wherein the cleaved facets have an m-plane or a-plane orientation.

A light emitting diode (LED) having a p-type layer having a thickness of 100 nm or less, an n-type layer, and an active layer, positioned between the p-type layer and the n-type layer, for emitting light, wherein the LED does not include a separate electron blocking layer.
摘要:
An epitaxial structure for a III-Nitride based optical device, comprising an active layer with anisotropic strain on an underlying layer, where a lattice constant and strain in the underlying layer are partially or fully relaxed in at least one direction due to a presence of misfit dislocations, so that the anisotropic strain in the active layer is modulated by the underlying layer.

摘要:
A III-nitride light emitting diode (LED) and method of fabricating the same, wherein at least one surface of a semipolar or nonpolar plane of a III-nitride layer of the LED is textured, thereby forming a textured surface in order to increase light extraction. The texturing may be performed by plasma assisted chemical etching, photolithography followed by etching, or nano-imprinting followed by etching.

摘要:
A dislocation-free high quality template with relaxed lattice constant, fabricated by spatially restricting misfit dislocation(s) around heterointerfaces. This can be used as a template layer for high In composition devices. Specifically, the present invention prepares high quality InGaN templates (In composition is around 5-10%), and can grow much higher In-composition InGaN quantum wells (QWs) (or multi quantum wells (MQWs)) on these templates than would otherwise be possible.
