  • Abstract
    Room temperature visible light electroluminescence (EL) has been obtained for the first time from Er-doped GaN Schottky barrier diodes. The EL intensity for visible and IR light was found to increase linearly with bias current density. An external quantum efficiency of >0.1% has been measured under a reverse bias current of 3.85 mA.
