Abstract

Light-emitting diodes operating in the 2.8-2.9 μm spectral region have been fabricated from InGaAs and InAsSbP p-n structures grown onto n- and heavily doped n⁺-InAs substrates. Owing to the high transparency of the n⁺-InAs and n-InGaAs buffer, the episide-down construction was successfully implemented for LEDs and photodiodes, and room temperature operation with output power and detectivity as high as 400 μW (I = 1A) and 1.5 × 10¹⁰cm Hz¹2//W was correspondingly achieved. Operation of the LEDs and optically coupled LED-photodiode pairs was demonstrated in the 15-190°C temperature range.
