Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to solve high resistivity and low hole concentration in p-type widegap nitride-based semiconductors, we proposed three novel approaches, such as tunnel junctions, polarization doping, and valence band control, and developed the approaches in novel optoelectronic devices. As a result, the lowest resistive MOCVD-grown tunnel junction has been achieved and utilized in current confined micro LED. In addition, high carrier concentrations (over 1x1018cm-3) in high Al content nitride-based semiconductors have been obtained by polarization doping. Deep ultraviolet LEDs and VCSELs with vertical current injections have been demonstrated by the polarization doping.
