Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, since this laser device does not prepare a controllable resonator, its lasing is generally caused by the random scattering resonator or the microcavity mode selection effect of ZnO nanocrystals, so the output power of the device is very low, and the directionality of the laser is very low. not good too

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor light-emitting devices and preparation methods thereof, in particular to a laser device structure based on ZnO-based materials and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] GaN-based materials have been widely used in the field of solid-state lighting and information. The energy band gap and lattice constant of ZnO and GaN are very close, and they have similar photoelectric properties. However, compared with GaN, ZnO has a higher melting point and exciton binding energy, higher exciton gain, lower epitaxial growth temperature, lower cost, and easy etching, which makes the subsequent processing of epitaxial wafers easier and makes the device Preparation is more convenient and so on. Therefore, the successful development of ZnO-based light-emitting tubes and lasers may replace or partially replace GaN-based optoelectronic devices, and will have greater application prospects...
