Abstract
A strained-layer superlattice using layers of GaAs0.8 P0.2 -In0.9 Ga0.1 As is described which has an average latice constant matched to GaAs; this permits growth of devices directly on GaAs. A double-heterostructure light emitting diode, emitting near 1 µm with the superlattice structure, have been characterized and shows no degradation in 200 h of operation at 25°C and 20 A/cm2. A three-terminal, dual-wavelength LED has been fabricated with peak emissions at 0.886 and 0.874 µm. This device has very high series resistance.
