Abstract
Semiconductor structures and methods for forming those semiconductor structures are disclosed. For example, a semiconductor structure with a p-type superlattice region, an i-type superlattice region, and an n-type superlattice region is disclosed. The semiconductor structure can have a polar crystal structure with a growth axis that is substantially parallel to a spontaneous polarization axis of the polar crystal structure. In some cases, there are no abrupt changes in polarisation at interfaces between each region. At least one of the p-type superlattice region, the i-type superlattice region and the n-type superlattice region can comprise a plurality of unit cells exhibiting a monotonic change in composition from a wider band gap (WBG) material to a narrower band gap (NBG) material or from a NBG material to a WBG material along the growth axis to induce p-type or n-type conductivity.
