InGaAsSb negative luminescent devices with built-in cavities emitting at 3.9 μm

An As2S3 fiber coupled to an InGaAsSb photodiode was used to record the radiation distribution over the emitting surface in InGaAsSb episide-down-bonded negative luminescence devices View the MathML source. Emission spectra were recorded under forward and reverse bias and both were modulated by a Fabry–Perot resonator formed by the anode contact and emitting InAs surface in 45-μm thick diodes. The results show that the current/emission distribution crowds in the vicinity of the contact under forward bias, while a uniform current/emission distribution over the emitting surface is seen under reverse bias.
