  • Abstract
    The authors demonstrated p-n junction blue LEDs (light emitting diodes) using p-ZnTe/ZnS doping SLs (superlattices). These LED structures emit blue light at room temperature. These heterostructures provide p-type conduction and a sheet hole concentration of 5*10/sup 12/ cm/sup -2/, which corresponds to the average concentration of about 1*10/sup 17/ cm/sup -3/. It is believed that the present study is a promising first step towards blue LDs using II-VI semiconductors.<>
