True Blue Inorganic Optoelectronic Devices

Abstract

The realization of blue light-emitting optoelectronic devices has attracted much attenion. Here the leading candidates (ZnSe, GaN, SiC, organic polymers) are examined and research towards the improvement of zinc selenide in particular is reviewed. Deposition methods, precursors, and p-type dopants are all discussed. The Figure shows a p–n junction after equilibration.
