Abstract :
Light-emitting diodes with BeMgZnSe cladding layers and an active region formed by a ZnSe, BeZnSe or BeZnSeTe single quantum well are characterized by means of current-voltage measurements and electroluminescence at room temperature. A longterm stability exceeding 4000 h has been estimated in first experiments at low current densities (15 A cm−2). The emission wavelength was tuned between 452 and 518 nm by varying the composition of the quantum well material. Additionally, first results on the n-type doping of BeMgZnSe during molecular beam epitaxy have been obtained. The properties of ohmic contacts to n-type epilayers are discussed.
