摘要:
A light-emitting diode having an excellent high-speed response characteristic and capable of giving a large light output with a small variation of the light output during the operation is provided. In the light-emitting diode, an active layer comprising a single quantum well layer of p-type Ga0.51In0.49P, a lower barrier layer of p-type (Al0.5Ga0.5)0.51In0.49P and an upper barrier layer of p-type (Al0.5Ga0.5)0.51In0.49P is highly doped with p-type dopant (Zn, Mg, Be, C) or n-type dopant (Si, Se, Te) to produce non-radiative recombination level in the upper and lower barrier layers. Carriers injected into the quantum well layer not only recombine radiatively therein and also recombine nonradiatively at boundaries of the upper barrier layer and the lower barrier layer, remarkably increasing recombination velocity of carriers and dramatically improving the response characteristic.

摘要:
A resonant cavity type light emitting diode has a first DBR made of n-type AlAs or Al0.5Ga0.5As, a quantum well active layer, a second DBR made of p-type (Al0.2Ga0.6)0.5In0.5P or Al0.5In0.5P, and an n-type current constriction layer on an n-type GaAs substrate. The first DBR and the second DBR form a resonator. The quantum well active layer is formed in a position of an antinode of a standing wave inside the resonator. Between the second DBR and the current constriction layer, there is provided a p-type GaP etching protection layer that has a value obtained by dividing resistivity by thickness being 1×103 &OHgr; or more. Since a current in a current flow pass formed in the current constriction layer hardly diffuses to the outside of the current flow pass, there is generated few region with low current density that causes deterioration of responsespeed in a quantum well layer. Thus, the light emitting diode has an excellent high-speed response.

摘要:
A semiconductor light-emitting device includes an active layer having a single quantum well structure. The single quantum well structure enables a high-speed response such that the rise and fall time is 2.1 nsec. Further, the single quantum well active layer is doped with Zn at a concentration of 8×1017 cm−3. Thereby, the half-value width of the light-emitting spectrum is 25 nm or more, which is wider than in the case of no doping. Thus, temperature dependence of an optical output is reduced.

摘要:
A semiconductor light-emitting element has a semiconductor laminate including an active layer emitting light of a prescribed emission wavelength and a step located at an in-depth position beyond the active layer. The element also has a substrate transparent to the emission wavelength, a first electrode provided on a surface of the semiconductor laminate, and a second electrode provided on the step. The substrate transparent to the emission wavelength improves the external emission efficiency. The locations of the first and second electrodes substantially prevent current to flow through a direct connection interface between the semiconductor laminate and the substrate. Thereby, the element exhibits satisfactory electrical characteristics even when an incomplete junction attributed to hillock or the like is generated in the direct connection interface.

摘要:
In a semiconductor light-emitting element, a first DBR and a second DBR, with a specified spacing left between them, form a resonator, and a single quantum well active layer is positioned at the loop of a standing wave within this resonator. The single quantum well active layer is composed of a Ga0.5In0.5P well layer and a pair of (Al0.5Ga0.5)0.5In0.5P barrier layers, which sandwiches the Ga0.5In0.5P well layer therebetween. The impurity concentration of the (Al0.5Ga0.5)0.5In0.5P barrier layers is higher than that of the Ga0.5In0.5P well layer. For example, the impurity concentration of the Ga0.5In0.5P well layer is set to 2×1016 cm−3, while the impurity concentration of the (Al0.5Ga0.5)0.5In0.5P barrier layers is set to 2×1018 cm−3.
