Abstract :
A semiconductor Anti-Stokes light convertor consisting of six layers (p-GaAs, n-GaAs, n-GaxAl1-xAs, p-Gay Al1-yAs, p-GaxAl1-xAs, p-GaAs) has been fabricated using liquid phase epitaxy from Ga-rich melts. The n- and p-type GaAs forms a photodiode, which is integrated with a GaAlAs light emitting diode. Avalanche multiplication of photoexcited carriers is used to increase the LED driving current and thus the total conversion efficiency of the device.
