摘要:
A buried hetero-structure with native oxidized current blocking layer for InP-based opto-electronic devices comprises a InP semiconductor substrate, a buffer layer, a ridge mesa containing lower confinement layer, active layer and upper grating confinement layer, a first InP cladding layer and a native oxidized Al-bearing layer as current blocking layers at both lateral edges, a second InP cladding layer, contact layer, contact metal, and the second ridge mesa covered with insulating layer. This method is to facilitate the processing of conventional buried hetero-structure InP-based opto-electronic device and improve the performance under high temperature and high current operation.
