Problems solved by technology

Although it has high conductivity in the direction parallel to the heterojunction, in the vertical direction, due to the existence of valence band barriers, tunneling or thermal excitation is required to achieve current transmission; even if an ultra-short period superlattice structure is used, High vertical conductivity is not easy to achieve due to the large hole mass of the subband

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of semiconductor lasers, and relates to the design and manufacturing method of the epitaxial structure of gallium nitride-based semiconductor lasers. Background technique [0002] In the prior art, the lasing wavelength of gallium nitride-based lasers covers the spectral range from ultraviolet to green light, which has broad application prospects in high-density optical storage, laser display and other fields. The performance of violet and blue lasers has reached the practical level, and green lasers have also achieved continuous lasing at room temperature. [0003] However, the electro-optical conversion efficiency of gallium nitride-based lasers is still much lower than that of gallium arsenide-based lasers, due to failure to achieve effective p-type doping and large internal losses. The difficulty of P-type doping mainly lies in the higher ionization energy of the acceptor impurity. Therefore, the p-type AlGaN o...
