Abstract
Semiconductor light source on n-conducting, N-doped SiC contains a pn-transition emitting visible light and a p-layer doped with an acceptor material. The SiC has a concn. of uncompensated majority donors of 0.8 x 1018 cm.-3. The structure of the element comprises: (a) a p-layer doped by acceptor additive with min. activation energy and solubility in the SiC of the order of 2 x 1018 to 2 x 1020 cm.-3; (b) a base layer with a concn. of uncompensated donors of 0.8 x 1018 to 5 x 1018 cm.-3; and (c) A 0.05-1.0 mu m thick intermediate layer doped with luminescence-stimulating additives of the donor and acceptor type up to concns. of 0.1 x 1018 to 2 x 1020 cm.-3. and with a specific resistance is not 103 greater than that of the base layer. This light source is suitable for visual information displays, recording on photosensitive media, recording and read-out of data in computer technology, in various display panels, in digital meters etc. It operates efficiently at high current density and there is a much lower increase in the potential difference in the pass direction and redn. in the radiation intensity when the temp. is reduced from ambient to -60 degrees C. or under.
